How often should electrical panels be inspected for safety?

Electrical panels should be inspected for safety once a year by a licensed electrician. Roman Home Services recommends an annual whole‑home electrical safety inspection, and that visit includes panel checks aligned with National Electrical Code requirements. This cadence catches small issues before they become hazards and keeps protection devices working as designed. We regularly perform these inspections for homeowners throughout the Fredonia area. If you prefer a set schedule, our Home Protection Plan includes an annual electrical safety inspection along with other routine checks.

Schedule sooner if you notice:

• Flickering lights
• Recurring tripped breakers or blown fuses
• Warm, discolored, or noisy switches/outlets
• Burning odors or visible sparks

If anything smells like burning or a breaker won’t reset, stop using that circuit and call a licensed electrician immediately.
