Are you wondering if your home's electrical system can keep up with your growing power needs? As Northern Utah families add more devices and appliances to their homes, many properties—especially older ones along the Wasatch Front—may benefit from an electrical service upgrade.

What is an Electrical Service Upgrade?
An electrical service upgrade involves increasing your home's electrical capacity by replacing your existing electrical panel with one that can handle more power. This typically means upgrading from a 100-amp service to 200 or even 400 amps, depending on your needs.
Signs You May Need an Upgrade
Frequent Circuit Breaker Trips: If you're regularly resetting breakers, especially when using multiple appliances, your electrical system is likely struggling to keep up with your power demands. This isn't just an inconvenience—it's your home telling you something needs to change.
Planning Major Additions: Adding a hot tub, workshop, or electric vehicle charging station? These high-draw items often require more electrical capacity than older panels can safely provide. Modern life demands more power than homes were designed for decades ago.
Aging Electrical System: Many homes in Salt Lake City, Ogden, and surrounding communities were built in the mid-20th century when 60 or 100-amp service was standard. Today's homes often require double or triple that capacity to function safely and efficiently.
Benefits of Upgrading Your Electrical Service
Enhanced Safety
A new electrical panel with modern circuit breakers provides better protection against electrical fires and overloads. This isn't just an upgrade—it's an investment in your family's safety.
Increased Home Value
Modern electrical systems are a significant selling point. Potential buyers appreciate knowing they won't need to upgrade the electrical system themselves, potentially increasing your home's market value.
Future-Proofing
With the growing trend toward electric vehicles, smart home technology, and high-efficiency appliances, having adequate electrical capacity ensures your home is ready for whatever the future brings.
Energy Efficiency
Modern electrical panels often work more efficiently, potentially reducing energy waste and keeping your utility bills in check.
Is an Upgrade Right for You?
Consider an electrical service upgrade if:
Your home is more than 20 years old with the original electrical panel
You're planning to add major appliances or systems
You experience frequent electrical issues
You're renovating or adding living space
You plan to install an EV charging station
