Most Peninsula homes were wired for a different era, and their panels show it
Older panels cannot keep up with modern electrical loads
Many homes across the Peninsula still have 100-amp (or even 60-amp) electrical panels that were installed when the house was built decades ago. Back then, homes did not have EV chargers, heat pump water heaters, induction stoves, home offices with multiple devices, or central air conditioning. Today, all of those things draw significant power, and an undersized panel cannot handle the load safely. Upgrading to a 200-amp panel is one of the most important electrical investments you can make.
We handle the full range of panel services
Electrical panel services include upgrades from 100-amp to 200-amp or higher, replacement of outdated or recalled panels like Federal Pacific and Zinsco, and new circuit additions for EV chargers, heat pumps, and other high-demand appliances. These services can also include panel inspections, safety evaluations, breaker repair or replacement, and sub-panel installation for garages, ADUs, and home additions.
A panel upgrade is often the first step before other electrical projects
Planning to install an EV charger? Add a heat pump water heater? Convert your gas stove to induction? Many of these upgrades require a 200-amp panel with available capacity. Upgrading your panel first makes all of these projects possible and keeps everything code-compliant.
What to expect before, during, and after an electrical panel service
Before
A Caccia electrician inspects your current panel, evaluates your home’s electrical load, and discusses your current and future needs. We provide a detailed estimate covering the panel work and any related circuit additions.
During
Our team upgrades, replaces, or repairs your panel. For full upgrades, this includes installing the new panel, transferring all circuits, labeling everything clearly, and coordinating with your utility company and the city inspector.
After
We test every circuit, confirm proper operation throughout the house, and walk you through the new panel. We also discuss next steps if you are planning additional electrical projects.
6 Signs Your Electrical Panel Needs Attention
Frequent Breaker Trips
If breakers trip regularly, your panel may be overloaded or a circuit may be undersized for the load it is carrying.
Your Panel Is 100 Amps or Less
Modern homes need 200 amps to safely support today’s electrical demands. A 100-amp panel is likely insufficient.
You Have a Federal Pacific or Zinsco Panel
These brands are known for safety defects and are no longer considered reliable. If you have one, replacement is strongly recommended.
You Are Planning to Install an EV Charger or Heat Pump
These high-demand appliances typically require dedicated 240V circuits and a panel with available capacity.
Flickering Lights When Appliances Turn On
Lights that dim or flicker when you run the microwave, dryer, or AC can indicate an overloaded panel or loose connections.
You Smell Burning or See Scorch Marks Near the Panel
This is an immediate safety hazard. Turn off the main breaker and call us right away.
