Zinsco or GTE Sylvania Panel Failure Reports:

This article describes field failure reports of Zinsco or Sylvania-Zinsco or Kearney electrical panels: overheating, failure to trip, fires, other defects.

We [J Simmons] see damage in about 25% of the Zinsco/Sylvania panels that are checked. The problem occurs mostly on circuit breakers feeding circuits that have a steady heavy load on them (like heaters, hot water tank, dryer), and on circuits that are often overloaded such as circuits that supply the kitchen or bathroom.

In houses with Zinsco/Sylvania electrical panels and circuit breakers, I [Simmons] have tested these circuits with up to 30 amps on a 20 amp circuit breaker.

Zinsco® & Sylvania Electrical Panel Field Failure Reports

The Zinsco circuit breaker will carry the overload for a long time without tripping. This causes the connection to heat up and start arcing to the buss bar.

The problem is primarily in the panels with aluminum buss bars, but also has been seen in the ones with copper buss. Moisture seems to accelerate the process.

The following anecdotal reports describe observations of failures in Zinsco and Zinsco-Sylvania electrical panels, buses, circuit breakers.

Since most home owners and electricians are more focused on immediate electrical repair and safety needs than in taking photographs and writing failure reports, our opinion is that number and frequency of these electrical failure field reports are the "tip of the iceberg" of actual occurrence.

(Above, the photo of a burned Zinsco main circuit breaker and burned greased Zinsco electrical panel bus was provided by Washington state electrician J. P. Simmons)

We estimate that only 2% to 5% of electrical failures are recognized and reported to the U.S. CPSC or to researchers such as Daniel Friedman or Jess Aronstein. This opinion is supported by a US CPSC study of failed electrical receptacles.(1).

1. 2021/05/13 Ella Seneres [posted at page bottom] Plans to replace Zinsco Panels
   
   I want to thank you again. Every time I am in a whirlwind on what to do, I remember you all and I am deeply grateful to this site and everyone who participates to give us homeowners information.
   
   My situation was my electrician who is new to me, told me I did not have to change out three Zinsco Panels; they are over 40 years old.
   
   They could have a looksie and then maybe if there is a burn just change that part out, but because of this site, which I consumed with interest; I decided because of your site, am changing them all out.
   
   I know I look like a fool to him, but I must protect my rental and my tenants and all their possessions and pets, and despite being pretty poor, I feel I must. Thank you again for this valuable service you give us for free.
   
   Moderator reply:
   
   Thank you so much for your generous remark. It means a lot especially because we have worked on the material for so long I am particularly grateful when a reader finds it both trusted and helpful. In my opinion you were doing the right thing by replacing those panels.
   
   In the first place electrician can't possibly see the defect that would make the circuit breaker fail to trip when the defect is in part inside of the breaker.
   
   In the second case on some Zinsco panels using a plated Connection bar or bus the very process the electrician would use of removing and replacing the circuit breaker scratches through the plating on the bus and thus creates a greater probability of overheating and failure or even fire later on.
   
   In addition if the electrician removes a zinsco breaker and finds that the bus is burned in that location that location is no longer usable as a safe electrical connection for a replacement breaker therefore it's not a viable repair.
   
   Finally and unfortunately a replacement breaker in the same panel has the same design shortcomings and fire risk as the original.
   
   I think in this example your electrician had good intentions, but, with respect, is not completely informed on the subject.
   
2. 2021/03/08 Mike O'Connell: power failure and flickering lights - Zinsco panel
   
   My insurance company had a contractor add two 10 amp breakers to my Zinsco box in 2011. It filled my box. I am now having trouble with power failure and flickering lights.
   
   When did the problems with the Zinsco box become known.
   
   Moderator reply:
   
   @Mike O'Connell, in my opinion it's a serious error risking fire loss and injury to add circuit breakers to a zinsco electrical panel. We know perfectly well from the search and the articles in this series those Breakers and panels are unsafe and should be replaced.
   
   You will find research dates on Zinsco panels and how long the hazard has been known in this article series. It's certainly dates from the 1980s and possibly 1970s. We have been reporting the hazard and can attest that it was discussed among home inspectors both in New York and nationally (at ASHI) since 1988.

   The photo below was provided by reader David Vaughn, for which we asked the following Thank you David, for the excellent photographs. It will be important to post this information as a Zinco field failure report. Ill send you that link for comment. Any details you can give me such as your estimated age of the electrical panel, the city and state or province where the building is located, and any other evidence you have of the history of this failure such as what was connected at the electrical receptacle would be helpful. Do you also have images of the conditions inside of the zinsco electrical panel itself?

5. 2017/02/16 - Arc-Flash Damage in a GTE Sylvania Zinsco-type Electrical Panel
   
   

   I'm dealing with this problem in my home currently, I have both my HVAC and an electrician here. It turns out as I'm reading your article, you cite someone named James Simmons from Mr Electric.

   Completely by coincidence I happen to have gotten my hands on a Mr. Electric electrician today. He was recommended to me by a friend who's in contracting locally. He's doing a great job.

   He did not know about the Zinsco/Sylvania problem. I discovered it by coincidence doing a search on line during the eight hours they've been here so far.

   There were problems found with our air handlers and they were wondering if that is what caused this Ark. Once I found your website we started to take a different path.
   

   If you're interested in more information or details please let me know.

   Thank you for your information. Also is there a place where I can research to find out if my panels were officially recalled? - Anonymous by private email, 2017/02/16

   at IDENTIFY GTE SYLVANIA-ZINSCO PANELS

   Reply:

   Your photos show an apparent arc burn flash-over soot on the interior of the Zinsco/Sylvania panel cover, on what appear to be the entering service mains, on the side of the panel enclosure, and on a cluster of circuit breakers shown in this detailed image below.

   

   Without more investigation of the breakers, panel bus, and circuit involved one cannot say for certain if this arc-flash damage was due to a defect in the circuit breaker, panel bus, connections, or some other issue.

   OPINION: a look by your electrician at the condition of the circuit breaker-to-bus connection might show the same arcing and burning illustrated above in this article. That would argue for an occurrence of the bus-connector defects and hazards we've described.

   In any case, I would replace this electrical panel.

   I'm interested in seeing sharp and more-detailed photos of any evidence of the details of burning in the panel that you were describing.

   That would be useful additional information to document.

   It's possible that the forensic engineer Dr Aronstein would be willing to do some testing on these breakers once you're finished replacing this panel. I'll check with him.

   There is no and was no GTE-Sylvania Zinsco electrical panel recall that would help you out with replacement costs.

   
   
6. 05/09/2010 - Stanford CA: Zinsco field failure report: blinking lights, loose Zinsco breakers, corrosion, arcing main breaker connectors:


I could hear arcing and my lights were blinking, so I reset all the breakers. Many of the breakers were loose, so I pulled them and tighten the clips. The problem continued, so finally I pulled the "main" breaker (125 amp) to find corrosion and arcing on the crossbars.

The question is whether this box can be retrofitted as you suggest on your website, or will I need to replace the whole panel.

My Zinsco panel is aligned vertically (~30" tall by 14" wide) [Drawing at left, provided by the owner.]

The top third contains the breakers arranged horizontally on parallel aluminum crossbars; the middle third had the service meter; and the lower third is enclosed so I guess it covers the supply wiring from the street.

Also, the panel is outside on an exterior wall, installed around 1967.

7. 03/25/2010 - Opinion: Milestone Electric, Dallas: owner Gus Anton reports during our discussion of FPE, Zinsco, & Aluminum wiring that in his company's experience, they find the need to replace more Zinsco electrical panels than other brands in that city. - personal communication, GA to DF 3/25/2010.

8. 02/19/2008 - J.P. Simmons: Just got these pictures [more photos were provided and are on file] of a badly damaged Zinsco main that failed.
   
   In this case the failure damaged the main wire to a mobile home also (you can see the melted wire to the left of the main). This is a good example of why I do not like to see anyone remove these breakers. You can not tell how bad they are damaged by looking at them.

11. 01-08-2006 06:59 PM -- Since I started this, now I'll put in my 2 cents. I am a master electrician (obtained license while still working in the field), a certified electrical inspector and a CBO. I'm with Ryan! And I have a FPE panel in my bedroom closet (oops, Ryan just disclaimed me). PG and Tanky, do you really think you can condemn my house for having a old panel??
    
    My parents house has a Zinsco from the 50s, split bus. You're gonna go after mine in a closet but say their's is OK because its in the garage (with paper files stacked around it). I think a change out should be allowed to stay in the closet, but with so many people having concerns, maybe I should find a way to CYA or at least strongly encourage the HO to move his panel.
    
    One thing to think about is how many homes have panels in garages and have cardboard boxes stacked around it and in front of it. That's a violation but we don't require the garage floor to be marked "no combustibles in this area". (Oops again, I probably gave someone an idea.) Thanks to everyone for participating, but if you're gonna zing somebody, do it backhanded with sarcasm, its funnier than the in your face stuff.

I believe if your parents service was a fire hazard you would have already fixed it. There are way too many government dollars available out there for someone to use the excuse it cost too much.

12. May 04, 2005 - Susan R. Olympia, WA: Customer called to have a burnt up outlet in their bathroom repaired. When I arrived on site I found the outlet completely burnt up, and the wiring badly damaged. The circuit was 12 gauge on a 20 amp Zinsco breaker.
    
    After some tracing I found the circuit also had kitchen outlets on it. The refrigerator and microwave they were using added up to 20 amps exactly, but they also had 2 bathroom outlets and lights on the same circuit. The owner had two portable heaters they used for the bathroom and bedroom area, and also used the typical hair dryer and curling iron, all on the same circuit! I asked the owner if the circuit ever tripped and she said that it had when she used the hair dryer while the heater was on, and the microwave was being used at the same time.
    
    This would be at least 36 amps on a 20 amp circuit! They did not have a problem using the smaller heater (1000 watts) and the microwave and hair dryer at the same time (about 30 amps), or when using the larger heater and the microwave at the same time. - Jim P. Simmons
13. January 28, 2005 - Zinsco panel, meter clip short circuits to panel?? Dear Mr. Friedman, Have you ever run into a situation with an 70's era Zinsco panel wherein upon removal of the panel face cover, the meter can be moved in such a manner that the lower meter clip contacts short to the panel housing. I have recently seen a panel with this condition and was wondering if this is a known problem with some Zinsco panels. Thanks, - Phil

    I am a 12 year veteran electrician with a new business in hand. I am seeking hard data on the Zinsco and FPE panels, I have a few personal experiences that make me personally aware of the dangers these brands but sound to a customer as self serving when I make my warning "I would consider replacing that panel as soon as possible".

    Most consumers look at the panel as something that has existed for many years without harm and I feel consider my words as money making. Truth is even if they choose another contractor I still want them to be better informed!

    Any direction you could pass to me would be appreciated. I have spent many hours searching the web and seem to find forum type input more then hard fact

15. 9-2-2003 Split Bus Zinsco: Thought you might like to see some more Zinsco panel damage pictures. I have this panel in my possession. This panel was badly damaged in the whole top section (above the sub main) where it is not possible to shut the power of because it is a split-buss panel with no main breaker. The really scary part is the customer did not know they had a problem.
    
    I was at the site to do an estimate and noticed the Zinsco panel. I asked the customer if it was alright to check it for him, and he agreed. He said the only trouble he knew about was the water heater didn't always give them real hot water. I pulled the panel cover off and everything looked OK. I checked the breakers with a volt meter and had proper voltage at all the circuits.
    
    Then I started (carefully) removing breakers and found the top (water heater circuit) breaker had welded itself to the buss and came apart when I tried to remove it (this could be very dangerous for a homeowner or home inspector). I removed several other breakers and found them to be badly damaged, and the bussing was burnt in several locations. After seeing the situation it was not hard to convince the owner that it was time to replace the Zinsco panel. -- J Simmons

17. May 15, 2003 - Zinsco/Sylvania breakers and panels - Dan P. Olympia, WA

    I was asked to look at this customer's home to give them an estimate to replace a Zinsco/Sylvania panel. The panel is the split buss type 200-amp with no main breaker. The panel looked OK but when I removed some of the breakers to check the bussing I found that the 100-amp 2-pole that fed to his shop had signs of degradation on the buss. The 2-pole 30-amp breaker next to it also had started deteriorating. They had not failed yet or caused the customer any noticeable problems.
    
    I then tried to remove the 60-amp 2-pole sub feed breaker (it feeds the bottom section of a split buss type panel) and it would not come out. I went to my truck and got my large screwdriver to use (carefully because there is no way to shut off the power to it) as a prey bar. I tried to remove it again and the breaker was welded onto the buss so bad that the buss started to come out with the breaker.
    
    I pushed the breaker and buss back into place and let the customer know that he had a serious problem that needed to be addressed as soon as possible. I will get him a price to replace the panel ASAP.
    Pictures 1,3 ,5,6 are of this panel. - Jim Simmons

18. April 25, 2003 - Ken W., Olympia, WA - Lacey, WA

    We had recently removed a Zinsco panel that was causing some problems for Ken Woehl. The bussing was damaged in a couple places (the problem was identified on a home inspection that I did for him) where the breakers plugged onto it. We got a call from our customer today about a problem he was having with the new Cutler Hammer panel we just installed for him (to replace the Zinsco).
    
    His complaint was when he ran his furnace and his microwave at the same time the circuit tripped. He said the breaker never tripped before (when the Zinsco panel was in place). Code requires the furnace to be on a separate circuit, but evidently the wiring had been altered so the kitchen microwave was on the same circuit. The circuit load with the furnace and microwave both on was over 26 amps.
    
    Now that we installed a good quality circuit breaker panel the breakers are doing what they should - shutting off when there is an overload and protecting the house. The Zinsco panel has bussing damage in it caused by a circuit that was overloaded for a long period without the circuit tripping. I have this panel in my possession for confirmation and the pictures here are from this site. - Jim Simmons

    and Photo 9: A Zinsco burned circuit breaker. - updated by J Simmons 3/8/2006

19. 4/15/03 - Black Lake Park - - Re: Zinsco Breakers: I was called out to bid a job for the Black Lake Community Park. I checked the panel for circuit capacity and noticed it was a Zinsco brand. I asked the customer if it was OK if I checked it, and proceeded to pull the cover off. The breakers and panel looked to be in great shape. No obvious heat damage or signs of conductor damage.

    I proceeded to pull off the breakers and found the top 3 - 30 amp breakers all had serious damage to the breaker and the bussing. One was so bad that the part of the breaker that pushes onto the bussing had become welded to the buss. The breaker actually broke apart (with the connection staying on the buss and the rest of the breaker coming out) when I tried to remove it. The panel did not have a main breaker (split buss type) so there was no way to shut off power to the top (main) section.

    This could be extremely dangerous if a homeowner, or a home inspector had tried to remove the breaker to replace it, or check it. (I have this panel in my possession because they had us change it). -- Jim Simmons

20. 3/22/03 - May G. Olympia, WA

    Re: Zinsco Split Buss Panel, about 40 years old: On 3/22/03 I went out on an emergency call - The customers friend was removing baseboard electric heaters for her that were no longer needed (she had a gas furnace installed). He turned off the circuit breaker that was marked "Main" and proceeded to cut the wires loose on the heaters.
    
    He thought he had the power off, the only problem was this panel was a older type that did not have a main. It is called a split buss type panel (it does not have a main breaker) and you have to turn off all the breakers to kill all of the power. He proceeded to cut the wires from the back of the baseboard heaters, and shorted out one circuit when he cut it.
    
    He had bright flash and loud bang which scared him so bad he dropped his wire cutters. He went to the panel expecting to find a circuit breaker tripped, but and none were tripped. He was concerned so he called us for some expert advice. I confirmed that none of the breakers had tripped even though he had shorted across a 240 volt circuit!. We recommended that they change the panel to a new one to get rid of the Zinsco panel.

    Unfortunately this is not a isolated incident. The circuit breakers are very poor quality and do not provide a safe level of over current or short circuit protection. - Jim Simmons

21. March 2003 - John A., Seattle WA:

    This message is in response to your request for descriptions of problems with Zinsco electrical panels. Our panel (in a 1922 Seattle house) was installed in December 1960, based on the city inspection tag we found stuffed into the wiring.
    

    In early March 2003, on a day when we were about to leave the country on vacation, we noticed that some of the incandescent lights in our living room were flickering slightly. At the same time, we heard the squeal of the UPS that protects the computers in our home office (a noise it makes when it detects bad power). It was a very windy day, and we attributed the problem to a tree branch hitting a wire. We shut off the UPS and left on our vacation.

    Upon returning, we discovered that the circuit for those areas of the house was completely dead. The circuit breaker had not tripped, but it had failed and no power was being delivered to that circuit. Resetting the breaker had no effect (although it did cause a sizzling noise and, after the panel cover was removed, a visible sparking).

    We called an electrician to fix the problem, and he filled us in on the Zinsco problems. we have one other circuit with a flickering incandescent light (all other lights on the circuit are fluorescent, and don't show the flickering), and we suspect that the problem is another bad breaker. We are currently in the process of having the entire panel replaced.

25. December 30, 2002 - Name: Todd Yetter Location: Delaware Title: Electrician In Trade Since: 1988 -- Has anyone ever seen the Zinsco breakers that don't have a set screw on the terminal lug? just a pressure terminal like on the back of stereo equipment
    
    RESPONSE: Paul W. Location: Washington Title: Electrician In Trade Since: 1991 -- Has anyone ever seen the Zinsco breakers that don't have a set screw on the terminal lug? just a pressure terminal like on the back of stereo equipment? Yes, I have.
    
    They have a tab underneath where the wire stabs in, to release the wire from the breaker. Note that there is a reason that UL pulled their listing from Zinsco breakers....THEY DON'T TRIP!!! FPE also has the same problem. Bulldog Push-o-matic's, I believe, also have the same problem. But hey, on the plus side you don't have to deal with any nuisance tripping, either
