As the county seat, McConnellsburg is the largest town we serve in Fulton County, with a population of 1,009 and a typical home dating to 1960. Aluminum branch wiring, 100-amp panels, two-prong outlets and recalled Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels turn up often in houses from that era.
A breaker panel upgrade is usually the first step for a house like that, clearing the way for a home EV charger or whatever the next addition turns out to be. We check the whole panel, not just the breaker that tripped, before we recommend anything.
Met-Ed serves most McConnellsburg addresses, with Fulton County's rural cooperatives covering the townships around the borough.
