Answers

FAQs About Electrical Panel Upgrades

How much does a panel upgrade cost in Rhode Island?

Most service and panel upgrades cost $1,500–$7,000, depending on amperage, wiring condition, and installation complexity. You’ll receive an upfront written estimate.

How long does a panel replacement take?

Many residential upgrades are completed in one day. Service upgrades or homes needing additional rewiring can take longer. We provide a clear schedule before work begins.

Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger?

Often, yes. Level 2 chargers require 240V and sufficient capacity. We’ll assess your panel and recommend the safest, most cost-effective approach.

Can I add more circuits without a full panel replacement?

Sometimes. If your panel has capacity and is in good shape, we can add circuits. If it’s outdated or maxed out, a full upgrade is safer and more reliable.
