ProLectric recently completed a full electrical service replacement for a homeowner in Galveston, Texas.
The existing electrical equipment was approximately 30 years old and showed significant rust and corrosion. Aging electrical panels, meter cans, and overhead service equipment can create reliability issues and may become a safety concern if the damage is left unaddressed.

What Was Replaced
For this project, our electricians replaced the old electrical service with all new equipment, including:
- Electrical panel
- Meter can
- Overhead service
- Service entrance equipment
Once the work was complete, the installation was inspected and passed City of Galveston inspection.

Why Older Electrical Equipment Should Be Checked
Galveston homes are exposed to salt air, humidity, wind, and coastal weather conditions. Over time, these conditions can speed up corrosion on outdoor electrical equipment, including meter cans, disconnects, risers, and service panels.
Rust, damaged equipment, loose connections, or water intrusion can affect the safety and reliability of the electrical system. If your equipment is older or visibly deteriorating, it is a good idea to have it evaluated by a licensed electrical contractor.
Signs Your Electrical Service May Need Attention
- Rust or corrosion on the electrical panel or meter can
- Frequent breaker trips
- Flickering lights
- Water intrusion around electrical equipment
- Damaged or outdated service equipment
- Plans to remodel, add equipment, or increase electrical demand
