Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I need a panel upgrade?
Signs include frequently tripped breakers, flickering lights, a crackling sound from the panel, or if your home still uses fuses instead of breakers. You also need an upgrade if you're adding major appliances or an EV charger.
What is a Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) panel?
FPE panels were installed in millions of homes between the 1950s and 1980s and are a known fire hazard because the breakers often fail to trip during a surge. We strongly recommend replacing them immediately.
How long does a panel replacement take?
A typical electrical panel replacement takes about 4 to 8 hours. We coordinate with your utility company to minimize the time your power is turned off.
Do you handle the permitting process?
Yes, we handle all necessary electrical permits and coordinate the final inspection with the city or county.
How much does a panel upgrade cost and how long does it take?
A typical 200-amp panel upgrade in the Portland area ranges from roughly $2,500 to $4,500 depending on service size, meter relocation, and utility coordination. Most upgrades are finished in a single day, with a brief power shutoff scheduled with PGE or Pacific Power. Permits and inspection are included. Call (971) 306-8484 for a written estimate.
