Service upgrade electrician in Villas
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.
We also get calls from Villas for 100 amp to 200 amp upgrade, breaker box replacement and 200 amp panel upgrade. If you are not sure which one you need, describe the problem and we will tell you.

Electrical panel upgrade cost in Villas
Electrical panel upgrade cost in Villas 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.

Electrical panel upgrade in Villas: 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.
Which towns near Villas do you serve?
We also work in Green Creek, Rio Grande and Cape May and the rest of Cape May County.
