To serve the customer's safety needs without recommending unnecessary work, the correct intervention level in this situation is a panel ____, not a full service upgrade.

Which of the following panel conditions requires a full service upgrade — not just a panel replacement?
If a technician encounters a home with a recalled electrical panel brand, but the home's overall electrical service size is already adequate for its power demands, the most appropriate approach is to mandate a full service upgrade.
Match each observed electrical panel condition to its most appropriate intervention strategy to avoid overcharging the customer or leaving them under-served.
Arrange the analytical steps an electrical contractor should follow when assessing a problematic panel to ensure they prescribe the correct intervention level and avoid wasting the customer's money.
