FAQs

What is an electrical panel upgrade and why is it important?

An electrical panel upgrade involves updating your home's main service panel to handle higher electrical loads. This is important because older panels may not support modern electrical demands, posing safety hazards such as overloads and potential fire risks. Upgrading ensures improved safety, efficiency, and compliance with modern electrical codes.

How do I know if my electrical panel needs an upgrade in Georgetown?

Several signs can indicate that your panel requires an upgrade. These include frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering lights, outdated fuse-based panels, and the inability to support new appliances or home renovations. If you notice these issues, it is advisable to have a licensed electrician evaluate your panel for potential upgrades.

How long does an electrical panel upgrade typically take?

The duration of an electrical panel upgrade can vary depending on the complexity of the installation and any necessary permits. Generally, the process can take anywhere from a few hours to a full day of work. A professional electrician will provide a more accurate estimate after assessing your specific situation.

What is the process of upgrading an electrical panel?

The upgrade process typically begins with an assessment of your current system. A licensed electrician will evaluate your electrical needs and design a solution that meets both current and future requirements. This is followed by obtaining necessary permits, safely disconnecting your existing panel, and installing the new panel with updated wiring and safety features. A final inspection is usually required to ensure compliance with local electrical codes.

What permits or inspections are required for an electrical panel upgrade in Georgetown?

Most electrical panel upgrades require permits and subsequent inspections to ensure the work meets local and national electrical codes. These regulations are in place to guarantee that the upgrade is safe and reliable. A licensed electrician in Georgetown will handle the permit process and schedule the necessary inspections during and after the upgrade work.

Can I perform an electrical panel upgrade myself, or should I hire a professional?

Upgrading an electrical panel is a complex and potentially dangerous task that involves working with high voltage. For safety reasons and to ensure compliance with electrical codes, it is highly recommended to hire a licensed and experienced electrician. Professionals have the expertise needed to properly install and inspect the system, mitigating risks and ensuring the upgrade is performed correctly.

On October 4, 2023, an electrician (Joshua Butler) from HEP Inc. arrived promptly and provided his expertise and experience to install a whole house surge protector and replace a few inoperable electrical outlets. His services were flawless, and he completed the assigned tasks on time. Lastly, Joshua adequately disposed of all waste generated. Job well done, and mega-thanks!

It wasn't cheap, but Ryan with Hep was a true life-saver. He took our electric service line from original, highly deteriorated 1950s wire to modern, expandable, and up-to-code in one day! Including working closely with local EPB folks (who also deserve huge kudos for their work)! Thanks, Ryan, for your fantastic work!!

Ric,Ryan, James,Dan,Tommy and Jimmy were the ones that did the work to my home. I can honestly say these guys not only did an excellent job but were so helpful in getting me what i needed done the fast way possible. They all went above and beyond for my family and I. The electrical issues I had with my home was horrible. Ric and Ryan eased my mind and helped me make a very difficult decision on how to proceed in getting the issues fixed. If it hadn't been for these two making me feel comfortable and feel lie I could trust them I might have looked at other options. So thank you both for explaining things to me and showing me first hand how important it was for to get this fixed ASAP. You guys (all of them) all the best. Thank you for all your hard work. I would recommend you guys to anyone.

David Nicholson did an amazing job with the panel upgrade at our home. He spent hours here doing the job efficiently. We can now rest easier in our home knowing that there is no longer the fire hazard due to have out of date electrical panel. Thanks for such hard work. Also, want to give thanks for Jesse spending hours here walking me through the process and managing his staff and assigning the correct worker to jobs. Jesse is a hard worker and great electrician. Thank you both for the hard worker. Both employees are assets to the company.
