Why Should You Consider Upgrading Your Electrical Panel?

An electrical panel upgrade may be worth considering when your existing system needs to support more appliances, electronics, circuits, or other electrical equipment. Evaluating the electrical system is an important part of planning improvements that will increase your home’s electrical use.

Consider having your panel evaluated when you are:

  • Planning a home addition or renovation
  • Adding appliances or other electrical equipment
  • Adding circuits or outlets to support new electrical needs
  • Updating an older fuse box or main panel

Not every project requires a panel upgrade. We can assess the existing service and determine which improvements are appropriate for your home.

Fuse Box & Main Electrical Panel Replacement

Is it finally time to make some upgrades to your fuse box? We replace old fuse boxes and main panels as part of our residential electrical services.

Instead of treating the panel as an isolated component, we consider how the existing electrical service relates to your appliances, electronics, and planned improvements. If you have an older fuse box or main panel and are unsure what type of upgrade is appropriate, we can evaluate the existing system and discuss your options.

Circuit Breaker & Subpanel Installation

We install new circuit breakers and subpanels as part of residential electrical upgrades. A subpanel may be added when extra circuit space is required for a home addition, garage, workshop, or other area.

Our team can review your existing panel, electrical service, and planned improvements to determine the appropriate setup. Adding a subpanel provides room for additional circuits, but does not by itself increase the capacity of your home’s electrical service.

Electrical Service Upgrades for Increased Power Needs

When you add more electrical equipment to your home, the existing panel and service need to be considered as part of the project. An electrical service upgrade may be needed when the existing system cannot support the additional demand.

We can discuss the service you currently have and the improvements you want to make, then determine the work required. Depending on your home, this may involve panel replacement, circuit installation, updated wiring, or other electrical improvements.
