Panel Upgrades

Upgrading a residential electrical panel is essential in older homes to support modern electrical demands and to ensure safety and compliance with current codes. An upgraded panel can prevent frequent breaker trips, reduce fire risks, and allow for future electrical expansion. Professional panel upgrades improve efficiency and overall electrical system reliability.
