Multi-Family Federal Pacific Panels

🚨 Safety Alert: Millions of homes and buildings are potentially at risk due to Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) panels with Stab-Lok circuit breakers. Despite longstanding concerns raised by experts, these panels are still in use today, posing significant fire hazards.

Did you know that according to a peer-reviewed study, a staggering 51% of FPE Stab-Lok breakers failed to trip, leaving homes vulnerable to electrical fires? The study estimates 2,800 fires, 13 deaths, and $40 million in property damage every year due to Stab-Lok breakers.

This leaves multi-family buildings especially in a position of uncertainty since residents don't know what others have in their panel boxes. Have you encountered similar situations where experts warn of safety concerns, yet the practice remains in use today?

We're interested in hearing your experiences and insights!
