Electrical Panel Upgrade service by PCG Climate in Pleasanton and East Bay

Electrical Panel Upgrade in Pleasanton & the East Bay

Many older East Bay homes have electrical panels that are undersized for modern power demands. PCG Climate upgrades residential electrical panels to 200-amp or 400-amp service, providing the capacity needed for EV chargers, HVAC upgrades, home offices, and modern kitchen appliances.

If your home still has a 100-amp or 150-amp panel, you may experience tripped breakers, flickering lights, or an inability to add new circuits. An electrical panel upgrade replaces the main breaker panel, updates the meter base if required, and brings your electrical service up to current code requirements. We coordinate with PG&E for service upgrades that require utility-side work and handle all permitting and inspection requirements.

Electrical Panel Upgrade FAQ

How much does a panel upgrade cost?
A 200-amp panel upgrade typically costs between $2,500 and $4,500 installed, depending on the complexity of the existing wiring and whether the utility service entrance needs updating.
Do I need a panel upgrade for an EV charger?
It depends on your current panel capacity and available circuits. A Level 2 EV charger requires a dedicated 40-50 amp circuit. If your panel does not have capacity for that, an upgrade may be necessary.
