Common Electrical Problems in Upper West Side Buildings
Many apartments built before 1950 still run on original branch wiring and small breaker panels. Heat cycles, high draw appliances, and aging splices inside plaster walls cause frequent breaker trips and power drops.
Our electricians use digital multimeters, circuit tracers, and thermal checks to pinpoint the exact fault before recommending a repair or upgrade.
Federal Pacific and Zinsco Panels
Older apartment panels often fail to trip during overloads. We replace obsolete panels with modern circuit breakers.
