FAQ

Common panel upgrades questions.

If the main panel is out of capacity or breaker spaces, the upgrade is the answer. If the main panel has headroom and the problem is getting power out to a garage or workshop, a subpanel is the smaller and cheaper route.
Yes. Permit filing is part of the price rather than a separate charge.
