Electrical Panel Upgrades & Replacement
Art Power upgrades and replaces residential electrical panels, handles electrical service upgrades, adds subpanels, and installs panels in new homes across our New Jersey service area.
Overview
What This Service Covers
Electrical panel work can include upgrading or replacing an existing panel, upgrading the electrical service coming into the home, adding a subpanel, installing a panel for a new home, or troubleshooting problems involving breakers and circuits. Art Power works with both indoor and outdoor residential panels depending on the home and project.
A panel or service upgrade usually comes up when a home needs more capacity than its current system provides, such as when adding an EV charger, finishing a renovation or addition, or adding major electric appliances. It can also come up when an existing panel is older, has no room for new circuits, or is showing signs of a problem.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between a panel upgrade and a panel replacement?
A panel replacement swaps an existing panel for a new one, often at a similar capacity. A panel upgrade usually means increasing the home's electrical capacity, which can also involve upgrading the electrical service coming into the house. Which one a home needs depends on its current setup and what it needs to support.
What are signs an electrical panel may need attention?
Breakers that trip often, a panel with no room for new circuits, breakers or panel parts that feel warm or look discolored, or recurring problems when several appliances run at once are all reasons to have a panel looked at. Similar symptoms can have different causes, so the panel and circuits need to be checked before deciding on an upgrade.
Do I need a 200-amp service?
Not necessarily. 200 amps is a common service size for homes, but the right size depends on the home, what it uses now, and what you're planning to add. We look at your existing service and your plans before recommending a size.
What affects the scope of a panel or service upgrade?
The existing panel and service, the home's current and planned electrical needs, where the panel is located, and whether the service coming into the house also needs to change all shape what the project involves. We explain the scope after looking at your setup.
