Frequently Asked Questions About Panel Upgrades
Location Questions
Yes. We provide panel upgrades for Anaheim homes and nearby cities. Call (657) 239-6331 — a real person answers 24/7.
We typically respond the same day for scheduled work. Phones are answered 24/7 for emergencies — call (657) 239-6331. From our La Mirada base we reach Anaheim quickly when you need us.
Process Questions
We do not give blind estimates over the phone. After we understand your Anaheim project and, when needed, visit the site, we provide a custom written quote with scope and pricing spelled out. Call (657) 239-6331 to start.
Yes. Panel and service upgrades require a permit and inspection under the California Electrical Code (CEC), which is based on the National Electrical Code (NEC). We pull the permit, schedule inspection, and coordinate with the local building department and utility when the service entrance changes.
Service Questions
Yes. We upgrade main panels and subpanels for Anaheim homes, including 200A upgrades when load requires it. Every job is different — we provide a custom quote after we see your site. Typical panel upgrade projects often start around $4,957 in labor (14 hours at our standard rate) before materials, permits, and scope; there is no one-size-fits-all maximum.
Distance is limited by voltage drop, feeder size, and installation method — not a single fixed “max feet” number. Longer runs need larger conductors. We size the feeder for load and length so the subpanel performs safely under the CEC/NEC.
For most Anaheim homes adding EV charging, heat pumps, induction ranges, or ADUs, 200A is the practical modern standard. We load-calculate under the CEC/NEC before recommending an upgrade so you are not paying for capacity you will never use — and not undersizing for planned loads.
Often yes, if the calculated load on the 200A service allows it and the feeder, breaker, and conductors are sized correctly. The subpanel cannot exceed what the feeder and main can safely supply. We verify with a load calculation before installing.
Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency electrical service in Anaheim for hazards such as partial power loss, sparking devices, and failed panels — call (657) 239-6331 as soon as you notice a problem.

"Electric panel upgrade, he was polite, professional and very helpful"
"I needed an electrical panel upgrade so I went to YELP for a referral. I requested several quotes and Michael was the first to respond (within minutes). We scheduled an appointment for the following day. He showed up at the precise scheduled time and thoroughly inspected the project and gave me a detailed plan on what was needed. After evaluating several other companies, I decided to go with Michael. His wasn’t the most expensive nor cheapest but his professionalism helped make my decision. He pulled the permit and contacted Edison before starting the job. About a week later we scheduled an appointment for installation, most of which was completed the first day. He came back the next to finish up a few things (cleaning the area each day.) He scheduled his patch & repair person in the following days and the final inspection. My only complaint would be that his patch & repair person was not as meticulous about cleaning the area after he finished his job. Otherwise, from start to finish I am pleased with the outcome. I told Michael he’s my electrician for life now!! Don’t hesitate in hiring him - you won’t be disappointed."
"I recently had First Electric upgrade my electrical panel, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! Michael came over to do the work, and he was super friendly and really knew his stuff. He explained everything in a way that made sense, so I felt totally comfortable with the whole process. The upgrade itself was done quickly and without any issues, and Michael even noticed a couple of other things around the house that needed some attention, which he fixed right on the spot! I didn’t feel rushed or pressured at all, which I really appreciated. If you need any electrical work done, especially something as important as a panel upgrade, I’d definitely recommend First Electric. I’m so glad I went with them!"
