Electrical Panel Replacement & Upgrades

Electrical panel replacement & upgrades are crucial for ensuring the safety and efficiency of your home’s electrical system. Outdated or inadequate panels can pose significant safety risks and lead to wasted energy.

At Lujan Electrical Services, we specialize in providing expert electrical panel solutions tailored to your specific needs. Our team of skilled electricians specializes in assessing, upgrading, and replacing electrical panels to enhance performance and safety.

Whether you need to replace an outdated panel or upgrade to meet the demands of modern equipment, we have got you covered.

An electrical panel is the heart of your home's electrical system. It is responsible for distributing electricity safely and efficiently. However, like any other system, electrical panels age and can become inefficient or unsafe. 

Here are some signs that it is time to replace your panel:

• Frequent circuit breaker trips: Frequent trips can indicate that your current panel is overloaded or malfunctioning.
• Flickering or dimming lights: This could be a sign that your panel is struggling to provide consistent power.
• Overheating or burning smells: If you notice a burning odor, it is critical to act immediately. Overheating panels are a serious fire hazard and require immediate professional inspection and likely replacement.
• Outdated malfunctioning panel: Panels that are 20+ years old may no longer meet modern safety standards or electrical demands.
• Insufficient power supply for modern devices: As you add more devices and modern appliances, your old electrical panel may no longer be sufficient.

Upgrading your electrical panel offers immediate and long-term advantages for the safety, efficiency, and functionality of your home. 

• Enhanced safety: Replacing an outdated or faulty panel reduces the risk of electrical fires and system overloads.
• Increased electrical capacity: Upgrading your panel allows you to meet the demands of newly integrated appliances seamlessly, without overloading the system.
• Improved energy efficiency: Newer panels distribute power more efficiently, reducing energy wastage and lowering your electricity bills.
• Compliance with electrical codes: Upgrading ensures that your electrical system meets local and national safety codes and the latest regulation standards.

Lujan Electrical Services specializes in delivering customized panel upgrades based on your electrical demands and future advancements.

An electrical panel upgrade typically includes:

• New electrical panel: We install a larger, more modern electrical panel, with more circuit breakers and better safety features, designed to handle higher electrical loads.
• Panel wiring: We replace outdated wiring and ensure all wiring is safely connected to your new panel, supporting higher electrical loads.
• Circuit breakers: Your circuit breakers will be upgraded or replaced to handle the increased power demands safely. This helps prevent overloading and protects your appliances.
• Grounding & bonding: We inspect and upgrade bus bars and grounding systems, ensuring they meet modern safety standards and effectively protect your home from electrical surges.
• Integration options: Our upgrades can include provisions for integrating backup generators or electric vehicle (EV) chargers. This flexibility ensures that your electrical system can accommodate future technology and power demands.

Our skilled electricians provide comprehensive backup generator installation services to ensure you have a reliable power source during outages. 

• Wiring for backup generators: We specialize in connecting backup generators to your electrical panel, allowing for seamless transitions when the grid goes down.
• Transfer switch installations: The transfer switch connects your generator to your electrical panel, ensuring a safe and efficient switch between power sources. Our team ensures proper installation to minimize downtime and enhance safety.
• System assessments: If your existing electrical panel isn’t equipped to handle the added load, we can assess your system and upgrade or replace it as necessary.

With the growing popularity of electric vehicles, having a home EV charger is essential. However, installing an EV charger significantly increases the electrical demand on your panel, and upgrading the panel is often necessary. 

We specialize in installing EV chargers for all major brands, providing a seamless and secure installation process tailored to your needs.

• Assessing panel capacity: Before installation, we assess your existing electrical panel’s capacity to determine the optimal location and ensure it can handle the additional load from the EV charger.
• Installing dedicated circuits: For optimal performance and safety, we install dedicated circuits specifically for your EV charger. This prevents overload and ensures reliable charging.
• Charger installation & wiring: Our team will expertly install the EV charger, ensuring proper wiring to your electrical panel while adhering to safety standards.
• Compliance with code: We ensure all installations comply with local and national electrical codes and regulations, ensuring that your setup is safe and legal.
• Panel upgrades for EV chargers: If necessary, we’ll upgrade your electrical panel to accommodate the increased demand from your EV charger.
