III.PROCESS

Our Electrical Project Process

1. 1

   Load calculation and panel assessment — we calculate your actual current and projected load demand before recommending a panel size or upgrade scope. We don't upsize just to upsell.

2. 2

   City permit pull from the relevant building department — all panel upgrades, new circuits, and service changes require a permit in every South Bay jurisdiction. We manage this process.

3. 3

   Utility coordination (SCE/LADWP) — service upgrades require utility disconnection, meter pull, and reconnection. We coordinate the scheduling to minimize your outage window.

4. 4

   Installation by a licensed C-10 journeyman electrician — all work is performed by licensed electricians, not apprentices working unsupervised.

5. 5

   City final inspection and sign-off — we schedule the inspection and are on-site to walk the inspector through the scope. No permit left hanging.

6. 6

   Utility reconnection and system energization — your service is restored, all circuits are tested, and we confirm proper operation of any new equipment before we leave.

VI.FAQ

Electrical Services — Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for a panel upgrade?

Yes — in every South Bay jurisdiction without exception. A panel upgrade involves a service change, which requires a city building permit, a utility disconnection, and a city inspection before the utility will reconnect your service. Any electrician who offers to do a panel upgrade without pulling a permit is either unlicensed or willing to put your property at legal and insurance risk.

What does a 200-amp panel upgrade cost?

In the South Bay, a standard 200-amp main panel upgrade including permit, utility coordination, and installation typically runs $3,500–$6,500 depending on service entry configuration, meter location, and whether a subpanel is involved. We provide a line-item estimate that breaks out labor, materials, permit fees, and utility coordination costs separately.

Can I charge my electric vehicle on a 100-amp panel?

A Level 2 EV charger (the standard for overnight home charging) requires a dedicated 50-amp circuit. On a 100-amp panel already loaded with typical household circuits, adding a 50-amp EV circuit is often possible but reduces available headroom significantly. Adding a second charger or a heat pump system on a 100-amp panel is typically not feasible without a panel upgrade. We'll assess your specific load balance before making a recommendation.

How long does a panel upgrade take?

Most residential 200-amp upgrades complete in one day. Utility outage windows (when SCE or LADWP pulls the meter) typically run 4–6 hours. The city inspection occurs the next business day after installation. We schedule the utility coordination and permit inspection in advance so there are no unnecessary delays.
