Electrical capacity planning
Add electrical capacity with a clear reason for it.
We assess the existing service, panel and planned loads before deciding whether a panel change, service upgrade or load-management approach makes sense.
When capacity needs a closer look
EV chargers, hot tubs, heat pumps and renovation loads can change what a home needs. The answer is not automatically a larger service—the existing system and combined demand should be reviewed first.
- Panel replacements and changes
- Service-capacity assessment
- Service upgrade planning
- Load-management equipment
- Major new electrical loads
- Renovation capacity planning
A practical decision process
01
List the planned loads
We identify new equipment, renovation work and other significant electrical demands.
02
Review the existing system
Service size, panel condition, available spaces and demand all inform the options.
03
Compare the viable approaches
Where appropriate, we can compare load management with a larger service instead of assuming one solution.
