An electrical panel upgrade replaces your home's outdated breaker panel (often 100A or less) with a modern 200A panel to handle today's electrical demands. Many NorCal homes built before 2000 have 100A or 125A panels that can't support EV chargers, heat pumps, tankless water heaters, and modern kitchen appliances simultaneously. The project includes disconnecting power with PG&E coordination, removing the old panel, installing a new 200A main breaker panel, re-landing all existing circuits, adding new circuit spaces, and upgrading the meter base if required. All work must pass city electrical inspection and comply with the California Electrical Code (based on NEC 2023).

Marysville se encuentra en el condado de Yuba (Yuba-Sutter). Historic levee-protected city with older Victorian and craftsman homes. El proveedor local de energia es PG&E.

Codigo de Construccion de California

California Electrical Code (based on NEC 2023) requires AFCI protection on all 15A and 20A branch circuits serving dwelling unit bedrooms, living rooms, family rooms, dining rooms, and similar areas. GFCI protection is required on all kitchen, bathroom, garage, outdoor, and laundry circuits. Panel upgrades trigger these requirements for re-landed circuits.

Cronograma del Proyecto

Load Calculation & Permitting

1-3 days (lead time)

Perform a full electrical load calculation per NEC Article 220 to verify 200A service is adequate. Pull the electrical permit and coordinate with PG&E for the meter disconnect and reconnect.

Power Disconnect & Old Panel Removal

1-2 hrs

PG&E pulls the meter. Disconnect all circuits from the existing panel, label each wire, and remove the old panel and meter base. Inspect existing wiring for damage or code violations.

New Panel & Service Installation

4-6 hrs

Install the new meter base and 200A panel. Run the service entrance cable from the meter to the panel. Install new grounding electrode system. Re-land all existing circuits on new breakers and add AFCI/GFCI protection where required by current code.

Inspection & Meter Set

1-3 days (lead time)

Schedule the city electrical inspection. Once passed, PG&E sets the new meter and restores power. Verify all circuits are live and functioning correctly.

Electrical Panel Upgrade en Marysville — Preguntas Frecuentes

How much does a panel upgrade cost in Sacramento?+

A 100A-to-200A panel upgrade in NorCal typically costs $2,500-$4,500 including the panel, meter base, breakers, labor, permit, and PG&E coordination. Homes requiring significant rewiring or conduit work may run higher.

How do I know if I need a panel upgrade?+

Signs include frequently tripping breakers, a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel (recalled for safety), wanting to add an EV charger or heat pump, or having a fuse box instead of a breaker panel. Any 100A panel serving a home over 2,000 sq ft should be evaluated.

How long does a panel upgrade take?+

The actual installation takes 1 day (6-8 hours). However, permit processing and PG&E coordination for meter disconnect/reconnect can add 1-3 weeks of lead time.

Will I lose power during the upgrade?+

Yes. Power will be off for 6-10 hours during the panel swap. Plan accordingly — charge devices, prepare coolers for refrigerated items, and make arrangements if you rely on medical equipment.

Do I need to upgrade to 200A for an EV charger?+

Not always. A Level 2 EV charger draws 40-50A. If your 100A panel has spare capacity and no other large loads, we may be able to add a charger circuit without a full upgrade. A load calculation determines this.
