Understanding an electrical service upgrade

What changes?

A service change-out replaces electrical service equipment. It may be considered when existing equipment or capacity no longer suits a property’s needs. A site assessment establishes the appropriate scope.

Think about the loads you want to support.

Remodeling plans, new appliances and other electrical demands help inform the conversation. Generator projects also require identifying which equipment you want to power.

Agree on a property-specific plan.

Discuss equipment, access, any necessary coordination and the proposed work before installation. Do not remove panel covers or handle exposed wiring to prepare for an estimate.
