What a Professional Panel Upgrade Delivers
Safety, performance, and future‑ready capacity
A modern panel upgrade replaces undersized or obsolete equipment with a new, properly rated panelboard, breakers, grounding and bonding system, and, when needed, service conductors and meter equipment. Upgrades typically raise service capacity to 200A or higher, add room for new circuits, improve short‑circuit protection, and support whole‑home surge protection, AFCI/GFCI breakers, EV charging, heat pumps, and other high‑demand loads.
Shannon Electric Solutions performs detailed load calculations, selects UL‑listed components, and installs to the latest NEC standards. We balance circuits for stable voltage, label every breaker for clarity, and confirm torque settings and fault ratings. The result is a safer, cleaner installation that’s inspection‑ready and built to support future additions without repeated rewiring.
Clear warning signs and common triggers
Frequent breaker trips, flickering lights during appliance start‑ups, warm or buzzing panels, rust or moisture damage, and limited breaker spaces are all red flags. Homes with original fuse boxes, split‑bus panels, or certain obsolete brands (e.g., FPE Stab‑Lok, Zinsco) face known reliability issues. Remodeling kitchens or baths, adding HVAC, hot tubs, well pumps, workshops, or EV chargers often pushes existing panels beyond safe capacity.
Upgrading reduces fire risk, improves reliability, and helps meet insurance and inspection requirements. It also increases resale appeal and prepares the home for modern technologies like solar interconnections, battery backups, and standby generators with transfer switches—while providing cleaner wiring organization and easier future maintenance.
From assessment to final inspection—what to expect
We begin with a consultation and on‑site evaluation to review your loads, future plans, utility service, and grounding. You’ll receive a clear proposal outlining panel capacity options (100A, 150A, 200A, 320/400A), any meter or service‑mast upgrades, and whether overhead or underground service adjustments are needed. We handle permitting and coordinate necessary utility shutoffs to schedule a smooth installation day.
On installation day, we protect work areas, safely de‑energize the system, replace the panel and related equipment, update grounding and bonding, and tidy conductors for neat, labeled terminations. Typical downtime ranges 4–8 hours for standard upgrades. After power is restored, we test circuits, verify GFCI/AFCI operation, provide a walkthrough of the new layout, and arrange the final inspection.
Most standard 100A‑to‑200A upgrades fall in a general range of $1,800–$4,500, while larger 200A‑to‑400A services can range $4,000–$8,500 or more depending on site conditions, service type, and scope (meter relocation, mast repairs, trenching, etc.). Proposals clearly list permit and inspection fees, materials, and labor. Flexible payment options and manufacturer plus workmanship warranties are available.
