Capacity & Safety
Service upgrades to 150A/200A, breaker right-sizing, and arc/ground fault protection for modern loads.
Panel Upgrades in Sacramento
We upgrade and replace residential electrical panels across Sacramento, Elk Grove, Folsom, Roseville, and nearby cities—adding safe capacity for today’s loads.
From 100A services in Midtown bungalows to 150A panels in newer Elk Grove homes, we size, install, and label panels so HVAC, EV chargers, and remodel circuits run without constant trips. All work is permitted, inspected, and finished cleanly for homeowners.
What We Do
We replace outdated panels, add 150A–200A service, and build EV-ready, solar-ready capacity for Sacramento homeowners.
Typical scope includes utility coordination, new meter/main panels, AFCI/GFCI protection where required, and clean labeling so every circuit is easy to understand. We keep work areas protected and tidy, and we verify voltage, torque, and breaker sizing before inspection.
Dedicated Circuits
New breakers for EV chargers, kitchen remodels, HVAC, and heavy appliances with neat conduit runs.
Labeling & Cleanup
Clear labeling, tightened terminations, and organized panels that inspectors and homeowners appreciate.
Common Situations We Fix
- Panels overheating or breakers tripping under normal use
- Need capacity for EV charger installations or future solar
- Homes with Zinsco/FPE or fuse boxes needing replacement
- Additions or remodels that require new dedicated circuits
- Loose labeling or mystery breakers causing frustration
Not sure if you need a full upgrade? We’ll assess load, recommend options, and only upgrade when it’s the safest solution.
Why Panel Upgrades Matter
A modern panel improves safety, reliability, and resale value—especially when buyers expect EV-ready and solar-ready homes.
Correctly sized breakers protect wiring, prevent nuisance trips, and reduce fire risk. Proper labeling speeds future service. Upgrading now makes it easier to add circuits later for HVAC, kitchen remodels, or a detached garage. See where we work on our service areas page.

Panel Upgrade FAQs
Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger or solar?
Often yes. We calculate available load and add capacity or subpanels so EV chargers and future solar interconnections meet code.
How long does a panel upgrade take?
Most residential upgrades are completed the same day once power is disconnected, with inspection shortly after.
Do you handle permits and utility coordination?
Yes. We pull permits, schedule utility shutdowns if required, and stay through inspection.
Can you add surge protection and labeling?
Yes. We add whole-home surge protection on request and fully label all breakers for future service.
