Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my electrical panel needs an upgrade?
If you experience frequent tripped breakers, flickering lights, or notice that your panel is outdated (e.g., a fuse box or low amperage), these are strong indicators that your electrical panel may need an upgrade. Homes that add high-powered devices like EV chargers, or remodel with new appliances, also often require panel upgrades.
What amperage should my upgraded electrical panel support?
Most modern homes require electrical panels rated for 200 amps to handle the power demands of new appliances, HVAC systems, and modern electronics. Older homes with 100-amp panels often struggle to support additional circuits and larger electrical loads. We evaluate your home’s needs to recommend the appropriate amperage for your upgrade.
Will I need to upgrade my wiring along with the electrical panel?
If your home has outdated wiring, like aluminum or knob-and-tube wiring, or if the current wiring cannot handle the new panel’s capacity, it may also need to be upgraded. The electrician will assess your entire system to determine if wiring upgrades are necessary for safety and compatibility with the new panel.
How long does it take to complete an electrical panel upgrade?
The duration of an electrical panel upgrade typically takes 4 to 8 hours, depending on the complexity of the job. Factors such as accessibility, the size of the panel, and any necessary rewiring can influence the timeline. We provide a clear estimate based on the specific details of your home’s electrical system.
Do I need a permit for an electrical panel upgrade?
Yes, upgrading an electrical panel usually requires a permit to ensure the work complies with local building and safety codes. We handle the permit process and ensure all work is inspected for safety and compliance with current electrical regulations.
Can I add more circuits to my panel without upgrading it?
If your current panel has available space and sufficient capacity, you can add circuits without upgrading the panel. However, if the panel is full or near its maximum load capacity, an upgrade may be necessary to safely accommodate additional circuits for new appliances or devices.
