Electrical Panel Upgrade & Repair in Utah

Common signs are breakers tripping often, lights flickering, a warm or buzzing panel, or running out of breaker space. It also comes up when you're adding an EV charger, hot tub, AC, or finished basement. Older brands like Federal Pacific, Zinsco, and Pushmatic should be replaced regardless of symptoms because the breakers themselves are unreliable.

200A handles most modern Utah homes including an EV charger, AC, and a hot tub. 400A makes sense for larger homes, homes with two EVs, electric heating, a workshop, or a planned ADU. We run a load calculation before recommending a size so you don't overpay or undersize.

Expect $2,500 to $5,500 for a straightforward 100A to 200A upgrade, more for service mast work, meter relocations, or 400A. Subpanels usually run $1,500 to $3,000. We give a firm written quote after the on-site assessment with no surprise charges.

Typically 4 to 8 hours on the day of the swap. We coordinate the utility disconnect and reconnect so the outage window is predictable. Most jobs are done in a single day.

Yes. We pull the electrical permit, schedule the inspection, and meet the inspector on site. You don't have to call the city or coordinate with Rocky Mountain Power. We handle all of it.

Yes. If the panel itself is healthy and modern, we can replace failing breakers, add AFCI or GFCI protection, and repair bus or lug damage. We only recommend a full upgrade when it's actually warranted.

Sometimes. Many 100A panels can handle a Level 2 charger with load management, but a 200A panel is usually the cleaner long-term answer. We run the load calc and tell you what will actually work.
