Electrical Panel Installation and Upgrade

Yesterday’s electrical panels were engineered to safely handle yesterday’s needs. Modern needs are more energy hungry. Our panels need to be able to carry heavier loads to power all our electrical devices. That’s the primary reason for upgrading.

Your electrical panel is the central nervous system of your home. If it's old, undersized, or showing signs of failure, it's not just an inconvenience it's a potential safety hazard and a limit on your home's functionality.

At Bylis Electric, We specialize in upgrading and replacing outdated main service panels, ensuring your home is safe, compliant, and ready for tomorrow's technology.

Is It Time for an Upgrade? 5 Red Flags

Your current electrical panel may be silently struggling. If you notice any of these signs, it's time for a professional inspection:

Sign Why It's a Problem
1. Frequent Breaker Trips Your panel is overloaded. The breaker is working—shutting off power to prevent a fire—but your system lacks the capacity for your daily needs.
2. Flickering or Dimming Lights This often occurs when large appliances (like the A/C or microwave) cycle on, indicating that your electrical service is unstable or being starved of adequate power.
3. Using a Fuse Box If your home still uses fuses, it is operating on an outdated system that does not meet current safety codes and often cannot handle modern power demands.
4. Burning Smell or Rust/Damage Any scorch marks, buzzing/hissing sounds, or signs of water/rust inside the panel are critical safety hazards that require immediate professional attention.
5. Planning Major Upgrades If you're adding an EV charger, hot tub, solar panels, or a heat pump, your electrical system may need a capacity upgrade to handle the increased load.

The Benefits of Modern Panel Upgradee

Upgrading your electrical panel is one of the most important investments you can make in your home's safety and value.

Superior Safety & Code Compliance

i1

New panels are installed with the latest Arc Fault (AFCI) and Ground Fault (GFCI) protection, dramatically reducing the risk of electrical fires caused by faulty wiring or moisture exposure. We ensure your entire service is brought up to current National Electrical Code (NEC) standards.
Our upgraded systems provide enhanced monitoring, quicker fault detection, and superior protection for every circuit in your home.

Increased Capacity (100A to 200A)

i2

Most older homes operate on 100-amp service, which is simply not enough for today’s high-tech, high-demand lifestyle. Upgrading to a modern 200-amp service (the standard for most new homes) provides the stable, reliable power needed for:

  • Multiple computers and smart devices.
  • New kitchen appliances.
  • Central air conditioning and modern HVAC systems.
  • Dedicated circuits for workshops or home additions.

Future-Proofing and Home Value

i3

A new panel adds significant resale value and eliminates a major red flag during a home inspection. It future-proofs your home, allowing for easy, safe expansion when you decide to install an Electric Vehicle (EV) charger, a new appliance, or a basement remodel.

From 100 amp to 200 amp panel upgrade services, we ensure your home can support high demand appliances, additions, and modern technology. If your home still uses a fuse box, we handle the complete fuse box replacement process with safe and efficient workmanship.
