The right upgrade starts with the right assessment.
More appliances, an EV charger, a renovation or a growing household can change what you need from your electrical system. We review your existing service, panel condition and planned loads before recommending the next step.
A service upgrade increases the electrical capacity supplied to your property. A panel replacement updates the equipment that distributes that power. A new panel or subpanel alone does not increase the capacity of the incoming service.

Clear answers.
Every property is different. An assessment helps turn the options into a clear plan for yours.
Do I need a panel replacement or a service upgrade?
That depends on whether the issue is equipment condition, a lack of circuit space or insufficient electrical capacity. We assess all three. A replacement panel may address condition or circuit space, while an increase in service capacity involves reviewing the incoming supply and related equipment.
Does an EV charger always require a 200A service?
No. The answer depends on the existing electrical load, charger requirements and installation. An approved EV energy-management system may allow charging within the capacity of an existing service. We assess the options for your property. Explore our EV charging services or read ESA’s guidance on service capacity and energy management.
Will my power need to be turned off?
A service or panel upgrade involves a planned power interruption. The length of the interruption depends on the work and any utility or inspection coordination. We discuss the expected schedule and preparation with you before the installation.
Who handles the ESA notification and inspection?
Electric FX coordinates the required ESA notification and inspection process for our electrical work, along with utility disconnection and reconnection arrangements where needed. We provide the acceptance documentation once ESA has accepted the work. Read ESA’s notification and inspection guidance.
How much does a service or panel upgrade cost?
Pricing depends on the service size, panel and meter location, condition of existing equipment, wiring changes, access and utility requirements. We provide a project-specific quote after reviewing the scope, with utility charges and related work identified where applicable.
What should I send with my enquiry?
Your address, a description of the work you are planning, and photos of the outside of your panel and meter area are a useful starting point. There is no need to remove any electrical covers. We will let you know what else is needed and arrange a site assessment as appropriate.
