Panel upgrades
200-amp panel upgrade in a 1950s ranch
An overloaded 100-amp panel replaced with a properly sized 200-amp service, ready for a future heat pump and EV charger.
Location
Harvey Park
Home
1950s ranch
Time on site
1 day on site
Scope
Panel replacement, grounding update, typed circuit directory
01
The challenge
The original 100-amp panel was full, with doubled-up breakers and a directory that no longer matched the house. The owners were planning a heat pump and an electric vehicle within the next two years.
02
Our approach
We ran a load calculation, coordinated the utility disconnect, and replaced the panel and service in a single day. Grounding and bonding were brought up to current requirements, and every circuit was traced, tested, and relabeled.
03
The outcome
A 200-amp service with room to grow, a typed circuit directory on the door, and a clean, dressed panel interior that’s easy to inspect and service.
