200 amp panel upgrade in Lodi

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.

Electrical panel upgrade cost in Lodi
Electrical panel upgrade cost in Lodi depends on the service size, whether the meter and service cable are replaced, the panel's location and what the utility requires. A panel-only swap costs less than a full 100 amp to 200 amp service upgrade. We look at the existing equipment and give you a written price.

Older Bergen County buildings hide a lot behind the plaster. Around Lodi we regularly open a box and find ungrounded two-wire cable, a fuse panel still feeding part of the house, or circuits added by three different owners. None of that is unusual in North Jersey. The job is to trace it properly, fix what is unsafe first, and leave you with a panel schedule that finally matches the house.

Electrical panel upgrade in Lodi: common questions
How long is the power off during a panel upgrade?
Usually most of one working day. Power is back on before we leave.
Do I need 200 amps?
If you plan to add a car charger, heat pump, electric range or an addition, almost certainly. The load calculation gives a definite answer.
Is a panel replacement the same as a service upgrade?
No. A replacement keeps the same amperage and swaps the box. A service upgrade also increases the capacity coming from the utility.
Do you cover all of Lodi?
Yes. We work throughout Lodi and Bergen County, including ZIP code 07644.
Do I need a permit for electrical work in Lodi?
New circuits, panel changes and service work generally need a permit from the local construction office. Simple like-for-like replacements usually do not. We tell you when your job needs one.
