Electrical Panel Upgrades

Your home’s electrical panel is the control center for all the power in your house. It distributes electricity to every outlet, appliance, and light fixture. Over time, your panel can become outdated or overloaded — especially with today’s high energy demands from modern appliances, HVAC systems, and electronics.



At Wimberly Electric, we provide professional panel upgrade services in Kissimmee and across Central Florida. Our licensed electricians ensure your panel is safe, reliable, and equipped to handle your home’s power needs for years to come.

Why Electrical Panel Upgrades Matter

A failing or outdated panel isn’t just an inconvenience — it’s a safety hazard. If your panel can’t manage your household’s electrical load, you may experience:


  • Frequent breaker trips
  • Flickering or dimming lights
  • Burnt smells near outlets or the panel
  • Scorch marks or visible corrosion
  • Overheating appliances or electronics

These issues often signal that your panel is under stress and may be at risk of causing an electrical fire. Upgrading ensures your system meets current safety codes, supports your home’s electrical demands, and improves energy efficiency.
