1960s ranch home: panel replacement and 200A service
An original 100A panel with no free spaces was replaced with a 200A service, leaving room for an EV charger and a future heat pump.

Electrician in Cedar Heights
Cedar Heights was built out in the 1960s and 70s, and many homes still run on their original 100A panels. Add an EV, a heat pump and a modern kitchen, and those panels run out of space and capacity quickly.
Working in Cedar Heights
We do a lot of load calculations here. Sometimes a full service upgrade is the right answer; sometimes a load-managed EV charger or a sub-panel does the job for much less.
- Typical buildings
- Single-storey ranch and split-level homes from 1962–1978, typically with 100A services, attached garages and accessible attics or crawlspaces.

Local notes
- Accessible attics make recessed lighting and new circuits quicker than in older areas.
- Some homes have aluminium branch wiring from the early 1970s; we check for it on every visit.
- Utility reconnection for service upgrades is booked with the utility, usually two to three weeks out.
