Electrical Panel Upgrade & Replacement in Texas

AA Electrical Services & Design upgrades and replaces electrical panels across Texas. We install 200 amp panels, replace aging breaker boxes and fuse boxes, add sub panels, and coordinate with local utilities and inspectors.

Texas homes carry heavy cooling loads for much of the year, and more households are adding EV chargers and electric appliances on top. A panel sized decades ago was not built for that. Call (888) 633-7804 or choose your city below to learn about panel upgrades where you live.

Electrical panel upgrade cost in Texas

Electrical panel upgrade cost in Texas depends on the amperage you are moving to, whether the meter base and service cable also need replacing, how far the panel is from the meter, grounding work, and local permit requirements. A like-for-like breaker box replacement costs less than a full 100 amp to 200 amp service upgrade. We look at your panel and loads first and give you a quote for the specific job.

Electrical panel upgrade: common questions

How do I know if I need a 200 amp panel upgrade in Texas?

If your home has 100 amp service and you plan to add an EV charger, electric range, tankless water heater, second AC or an addition, a load calculation will usually show you need 200 amps. We run that calculation before recommending anything.

How long does an electrical panel replacement take?

Most residential panel replacements are completed in a day, with power off for part of it. Full service upgrades can take longer when utility scheduling and inspection are involved.

What affects electrical panel upgrade cost in Texas?

Panel size, the condition of the meter base and service entrance, grounding, the number of circuits to reconnect, any wiring corrections needed, and permit requirements in Texas.

Can you replace a fuse box with a breaker panel?

Yes. Fuse box replacement is a common job in older Texas homes. The new panel adds capacity, and modern breakers give protection that fuses cannot.

Do I need a sub panel or a main panel upgrade?

If your main service has spare capacity but no spare spaces, or you need power in a garage or outbuilding, a sub panel installation may be enough. If the service itself is undersized, the main panel needs upgrading.
