Electrical Panel Upgrade in Bloomfield, NJ

Electrical panel replacement in Bloomfield

A panel upgrade replaces the breaker box and, for a service upgrade, the meter socket and the cable from the utility connection as well. We run a load calculation, install the new panel and main breaker, bring grounding and bonding up to date, move every circuit over and label it. We arrange the utility disconnect and reconnect and the inspection.

Electrical panel upgrade near Brookdale and Watsessing

Bloomfield is in Essex County, and our crews are in the area most days. Our trucks are in Watsessing, Bloomfield Center, Halcyon Park and Brookdale most weeks. If you are just outside town, we also work in Glen Ridge, Belleville, Nutley and Montclair. Here we cover ZIP code 07003.

Much of Essex County was built before 1960: colonials, capes, two-family houses and brick apartment buildings with plaster walls. For an electrician that usually means 60 or 100 amp service, a mix of old cloth-covered cable and newer wire, and panels that were never meant to carry central air, an induction range and a car charger at the same time. We see it every week around Bloomfield and we plan the work around it.

If you searched for “service upgrade electrician near Bloomfield”, one more thing worth knowing: we coordinate with PSE&G, JCP&L, Atlantic City Electric, Rockland Electric or a municipal utility when a job needs the power company involved, so you do not have to.
