Electrical panel upgrades and replacement in Omaha

The panel is where power enters the house and is divided into circuits. Many older homes have 60- or 100-amp service that was sized before central air, induction ranges, heat pumps and EV chargers. A panel upgrade replaces the panel and often the service equipment that feeds it; a subpanel adds circuit space in a garage, basement or addition when the main service is big enough but the panel is full.

Panel Upgrades

Signs you may need electrical panel upgrades and replacement

  • Breakers that trip often, or a panel with no free spaces
  • Fuses instead of breakers
  • A panel that's warm, buzzes, or shows rust or scorch marks
  • You're adding an EV charger, heat pump, hot tub or major remodel
  • A home inspector or insurer has flagged the panel brand or condition

What affects the price

Every home is different. These are the biggest factors in the price:

  • The new service size, such as moving from 100 to 200 amps
  • Whether the meter base, service mast or service wires also need replacing
  • Utility requirements and how quickly they schedule the reconnect
  • Grounding, bonding and any circuits that need correcting to pass inspection
  • Relocating the panel, adding a subpanel, and permit and inspection fees
