Electrical Panel & Service Upgrade FAQs

  • How do I know if my home needs a 200-amp panel upgrade?

    If your home currently has a 100-amp panel and you plan to install an EV charger, standby generator, or heat pump, upgrading to 200 amps is essential. Signs like tripping breakers, flickering lights, or relying on subpanels also indicate your system is at capacity.

  • How long will power be shut off during a panel replacement?

    Main power is typically shut off for 4 to 8 hours on the day of installation. We coordinate closely with the power utility to minimize downtime and restore electricity as quickly as possible.

  • Are city permits required for replacing an electrical panel?

    Yes, local building permits and utility service approvals are required for all main panel swaps to ensure compliance with the National Electrical Code. Cordoza Electric handles all permitting and inspection scheduling.

  • What is a subpanel and when is one needed?

    A subpanel is a secondary breaker box connected to the main panel. Subpanels are installed when your main panel runs out of physical breaker slots or when adding dedicated power to garage workshops or home additions.

  • How do I request a panel upgrade estimate?

    You can request an estimate online or call our office. We will inspect your service entrance, evaluate your electrical loads, and provide a clear, upfront proposal.
