Federal Pacific (FPE) Panel Replacement in NJ
Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) panels with Stab-Lok breakers are a documented fire hazard. MBH Electrical Contractors safely replaces FPE panels for New Jersey homes and businesses with modern, code-compliant equipment.
Fire HazardThe FPE Problem
Why Federal Pacific panels are dangerous.
Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) was one of the most common panel brands installed in American homes and buildings for decades. Independent testing later revealed that their Stab-Lok breakers can fail to trip during an overload or short circuit — the exact moment they're supposed to protect you — creating a serious fire risk.
Because the panel can look and behave normally right up until it fails, many New Jersey property owners don't realize they're at risk. If your home or building still has an FPE or Stab-Lok panel, replacing it is one of the most important safety upgrades you can make.
