We start with a visit to inspect your existing panel, service size, grounding, and circuit load. We discuss appliance needs like EV chargers, remodel plans, or HVAC upgrades, then recommend the right panel capacity and provide a clear estimate.
Once approved, we schedule the work, coordinate the shutdown, and prepare the upgrade for a smooth install. Our state licensed electricians replace the panel, organize circuits, update labeling, and complete the work to current National Electrical ("
Book your panel upgrade with our licensed electricians before small electrical issues turn into costly problems.
If your home still has an older electrical panel, there is a good chance it is working harder than it was ever designed to. Today’s homes use more power than ever before. HVAC systems, kitchen appliances, EV chargers, home offices, hot tubs, and smart home devices all add demand. At McKAM Electric, we provide panel upgrades to improve safety, increase electrical capacity, and give your home a stronger, more reliable power system.
A panel upgrade is more than just swapping out a box on the wall. Your electrical panel is the main hub that distributes power throughout your home. When that panel is outdated, undersized, damaged, or overloaded, it can lead to tripped breakers, flickering lights, limited room for new circuits, and in some cases serious fire and shock hazards. We upgrade panels so your electrical system can safely support the way you live today.
Many homeowners call us because they are adding new equipment and need more power. Others contact us because they are seeing warning signs that the panel is no longer performing the way it should. Common reasons to consider an electrical panel upgrade include:
If your home has a 60-amp or 100-amp service, you may be running close to the limit. Many newer homes and upgraded systems benefit from 150-amp or 200-amp service, depending on the load calculation and the property’s needs. We assess the full electrical demand of the home and recommend the right solution instead of guessing.
We start by inspecting the existing electrical service, panel condition, grounding and bonding, circuit layout, and overall load requirements. From there, we explain what the system can handle now, where the risks are, and what type of upgrade will best support your home and future plans.
Our panel upgrade service may include:
Every home is different, so the exact scope depends on the age of the property, the service size, utility requirements, and the condition of the existing wiring. Our goal is always the same: deliver a clean, code-compliant installation that improves safety and gives you dependable power.
Electrical panel work is not a job to cut corners on. A poorly installed panel can create hidden hazards that affect the whole home. At McKAM Electric, all work is completed by state licensed electricians and is compliant with the current National Electric Code and standards. We take the time to make sure connections are secure, breakers are matched correctly, grounding is handled properly, and the system is set up for safe operation.
We also stand behind our work. Every panel upgrade we complete is warrantied for 365 days from the date performed. That gives our customers extra peace of mind that the job was done right.
A professionally upgraded panel does more than solve immediate problems. It can make your entire electrical system safer, more efficient, and more practical for daily life.
If you are planning a kitchen remodel, adding a garage subpanel, installing a car charger, or replacing major mechanical systems, a panel upgrade often becomes the foundation for the rest of the project. Getting the service capacity right at the start helps avoid delays and expensive changes later.
In many older homes, the main panel may not meet current needs or current safety expectations. Some older panels may have known reliability issues, while others simply do not offer enough amperage or breaker space. If your panel is decades old, it is worth having it evaluated. Signs like rust, a burnt smell, crackling sounds, or breakers that will not reset should be addressed right away.
We help homeowners understand whether they need a full replacement, a service upgrade, added circuits, or another electrical solution. We believe in clear recommendations based on the condition of the system and your goals for the home.

They did a wonderful job installing our two Tesla chargers! We had multiple electricians give us bids, and McKAM was by far the most reasonable, honest, and easy to work with. They had great communication and arrived on time to the appointment. Very professional and friendly. 10/10 would recommend!
Originally we had contacted McKAM Electric to help us with a blown fuse, and some other needed items. Upon arrival and after inspecting our fuse box, they determined that it could not be repaired as it was a fire hazard. After hearing this, we then proceeded to make an appointment to replace the box and other needed electrical items at a later date. On Thursday July 2nd, they arrived on time to do the needed electrical work. The workmen then answered any questions we had, were very polite and performed the work on a timely basis for a fair price. Seeing as I am very particular about companies I hire to work for me, I highly recommend them to anyone needing electrical work done.
Always courteous and professional. I enjoy working with them for all my electrical needs.
Very professional
Great experience!
Exceptional communication and fair pricing. We’re extremely kind and even thoroughly cleaned up in our pantry after adding an outlet. Highly recommend them!
