Electrical Panel Upgrades in Central New Jersey

Safe, Reliable Service Upgrades for Modern Homes

Your electrical panel is the heart of your home’s power system, distributing electricity to every room, outlet, and appliance. As technology and energy demand have increased, many older homes are operating with outdated or undersized panels that can’t safely support modern living. At North East Home Services, we specialize in electrical panel upgrades and replacements for homeowners throughout Monmouth, Middlesex, Somerset, and Mercer Counties. Our licensed electricians provide safe, code-compliant solutions that improve your home’s electrical capacity, reduce fire hazards, and ensure long-term reliability.

Whether you’re adding new appliances, planning a home renovation, or simply living with frequent breaker trips, upgrading your electrical panel can solve a variety of issues. Most older homes still operate on 60-amp or 100-amp service, while modern homes typically require 200 amps or more to handle high-efficiency HVAC systems, kitchen appliances, EV chargers, home offices, and smart technology. Our team will assess your needs and recommend the right panel upgrade based on your current and future power requirements.

We Provide Comprehensive Panel Upgrade Services, Including:

  • 200-Amp Panel Upgrades: We replace outdated 60-amp or 100-amp panels with a modern 200-amp panel to accommodate today’s higher electrical demands safely and efficiently.
  • Main Breaker Panel Replacement: We replace aging or faulty breaker panels with brand-new, high-capacity panels from trusted manufacturers like Square D, Siemens, Eaton, and Leviton.
  • Fuse Box to Breaker Panel Conversion: If your home still has an old fuse box, we convert it to a modern circuit breaker panel for improved safety and convenience.
  • Subpanel Installation: We install subpanels in garages, basements, additions, or workshops when additional circuits are needed away from the main panel.
  • Breaker Reconfiguration: We organize and label circuits, replace old or overloaded breakers, and ensure your panel is properly balanced and grounded.
  • Surge Protection Integration: Whole-house surge protectors can be installed at the panel to safeguard electronics and appliances from voltage spikes.

If your panel is outdated, overloaded, or showing signs of wear, it may be putting your home at risk. Warning signs include frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, buzzing sounds from the panel, overheating or burn marks, or a panel that’s warm to the touch. In some cases, insurance companies may even require a panel upgrade if your home still uses a fuse box or a brand with a history of safety concerns, such as Zinsco or Federal Pacific.

Upgrading your electrical panel not only protects your home but also increases its value and future-readiness. A 200-amp panel is considered the modern standard for new construction and is often required for homes that plan to install electric vehicle chargers, solar panels, heat pumps, or additional high-draw equipment. Our team will work with you to size the panel properly, secure permits, and complete the upgrade with minimal disruption to your home.

Every Electrical Panel Upgrade Includes:

  • Full system evaluation and load calculation
  • Removal of the existing panel and breakers
  • Installation of a new panel with appropriate amperage and circuit count
  • Upgrading of service entrance cable and grounding system if required
  • Labeling of all circuits and verification of safe operation
  • Coordination with utility company and local inspectors

Our electricians are fully licensed and insured, with years of experience upgrading panels in homes of every size and style. We stay up to date with the latest code requirements and use high-quality components to ensure that your panel will deliver dependable performance for decades. We also take the time to walk you through the work, explain your new system, and leave your home clean and safe after the project is completed.

If you’re remodeling, adding central air, installing a hot tub, or simply dealing with the frustration of overloaded circuits, it may be time for a service upgrade. We can evaluate your current electrical system and provide clear, upfront recommendations so you can make an informed decision.
