Problems This Service Solves
Outdated or undersized electrical panel
Older homes often have 100A or 150A panels that cannot safely support modern appliances, EV chargers, or solar systems without an upgrade.
Preparing for solar or battery installation
Solar and battery systems require adequate panel capacity and specific breaker configurations. An upgrade ensures your home is ready.
Adding an EV charger
Level 2 EV chargers typically require a 40–60A dedicated circuit. Many panels need upgrading to accommodate this load safely.
Tripping breakers or electrical issues
Frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, or warm panel covers can indicate your electrical panel needs attention.
Code compliance concerns
Aging panels from manufacturers like Federal Pacific, Zinsco, or Pushmatic may have known safety issues and may not meet current code.
Home addition or remodel
Adding square footage, an ADU, or significant new loads requires panel capacity evaluation and often an upgrade.
