Frequently Asked

Electrical Panel Upgrade FAQs

How much does a 200-amp panel upgrade cost?

Most 100-to-200-amp residential upgrades in Columbia fall between $2,400 and $4,200 installed, depending on the meter base, mast condition, grounding, and whether the utility needs to disconnect. We give a flat-rate quote up front — no surprises.

How long does a panel upgrade take?

A standard panel swap is a single-day job: 6–8 hours with power off for most of it. We coordinate the temporary disconnect with Dominion Energy or Mid-Carolina Electric beforehand.

How do I know if I need a panel upgrade?

Common signs: breakers that trip when you run an AC + microwave together, a panel with fewer than 20 spaces, scorch marks or rust on the panel face, a Federal Pacific Stab-Lok or Zinsco label, or planning an EV charger / new HVAC. We do free assessments.

Do you pull the permit and handle inspection?

Yes. We pull the electrical permit with Richland County, Lexington County, or the City of Columbia (whichever has jurisdiction), and we meet the inspector on site. The cost is included in the quote.

Are Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels really dangerous?

Both have well-documented histories of breakers that fail to trip during overloads, which is a real fire risk. We strongly recommend replacement for any home still running one. Our quote includes the new panel, grounding, bonding, and code-compliant labeling.
