Electrical panel upgrade in Newton: 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.
