Service Upgrades — In Charge Home Electric in Seattle

When your home's electrical demands outgrow your current service, it's time for a service upgrade. In Charge Home Electric provides complete electrical service upgrades throughout the Greater Seattle area — from the utility connection all the way to your panel.

A service upgrade involves replacing or upgrading your service entrance cable, meter base, main disconnect, and often the electrical panel itself. This is commonly needed when upgrading from 100A to 200A service, adding an EV charger or major appliances, or when your utility company requires a service upgrade for safety or compliance.

We coordinate directly with your local utility company to schedule the disconnect and reconnect, handle all permitting and inspections, and ensure your upgraded service meets current NEC and local codes. Our team makes the process smooth and keeps your downtime to a minimum.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

A panel upgrade replaces your breaker panel. A service upgrade replaces the entire path from the utility — including the meter base, service entrance cable, and main disconnect — often alongside a panel upgrade. A service upgrade is a larger scope of work.
The utility will need to disconnect and reconnect your power, which typically means 4-8 hours without electricity. We schedule strategically to minimize inconvenience and complete the work as quickly as possible.
If your home has 100A service or less, if your utility is requiring an upgrade, or if you're adding significant electrical loads like an EV charger plus a hot tub, a service upgrade may be necessary. We'll assess your situation during a free consultation.

Customer Reviews

What Our Customers Say

I needed to have an inlet plug and breaker switch installed to my home circuit breaker box in order to plug in a new emergency generator for power outages. Troy and Kadin were professional and courteous and they worked quickly and efficiently. They installed the necessary electrical connections and cleaned up nicely and their price was quite reasonable. I recommend them highly.
