Electrical Panel Upgrades in Parkland, FL

When you need a panel upgrade

Many Parkland homes still run on panels built for the loads of the 1980s and 1990s, not today's. Consider a panel upgrade or replacement if you have:

• An old fuse box or a recalled or obsolete breaker panel
• Breakers that trip when the AC, oven or dryer run together
• A home inspector or insurance carrier flagging the panel on a 4-point or wind-mitigation review
• Plans for a Level 2 EV charger, pool equipment, a renovation, or a Generac standby generator
• A 100-amp service that can't keep up with modern demand

Not sure? We'll walk the panel with you, explain what's code-ready and what's a safety risk, and recommend the right path: a same-amp refresh or a capacity upgrade.

Insurance note: Acceptance is up to your insurer. We don't advise on coverage.

What's included

Every panel job is scoped for your house. Typical work includes:

• Assessment and load review: what's on the panel today, what you want to add, and whether a same-amp swap or a service upgrade makes sense
• New panel and breakers: properly sized equipment, clear labeling, and room for future circuits where the design allows
• Grounding and bonding checks: verified as part of a safe install, with larger grounding upgrades scoped separately when needed
• Permit and inspection: we pull permits when required and coordinate rough and final inspections
• Clean finish: old panel removed when in scope, cover secured, and a walkthrough so you know what's what

Optional add-ons we discuss up front: whole-home surge protection, an EV circuit in the garage, generator interlock or transfer switch prep, and grounding upgrades when the existing system falls short.

Same-amp refresh vs. capacity upgrade

Same-amp panel refresh Best when the panel itself is damaged, obsolete or insurance-flagged but your service size is still enough. We replace the panel in or near the same spot and move compatible circuits carefully.

Capacity upgrade (often to 200 amps) Best when you're adding EV charging, a major renovation, pool loads or a standby generator. This can involve utility coordination and a fuller service upgrade, so we design it before we order equipment.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a permit for a panel upgrade in Parkland?

It depends on your current panel, the service size you need, and permit and utility requirements. We'll look at your setup and give you a written proposal.
