What to know in Scottsdale
In south Scottsdale, the job is usually replacing an original Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel in a 1960s or 1970s ranch home and bringing the grounding up to current code. In north Scottsdale custom homes around DC Ranch, Troon and Silverleaf, the upgrade is more often about capacity, because more AC, pool and spa equipment, landscape lighting and EVs were added than the original service was sized for. Either way, we start with a load calculation and pull the City of Scottsdale permit.
Panel work in Scottsdale means working with the City of Scottsdale building and development services and with the electric utility that serves your address. We handle both so the upgrade goes through one point of contact.

Common questions
What do panel upgrades cost in Scottsdale?
It depends on the amperage, whether you need a new meter-main or just a panel, how far the panel moves, and what the utility requires at your address. We give Scottsdale homeowners a written flat price after a free on-site look, with the permit included.

Do I need a permit for electrical panel upgrades in Scottsdale?
Many jobs do, including new circuits and anything at the panel. In Scottsdale, permits come from the City of Scottsdale building and development services. We check whether your job needs one, pull it, and schedule the inspection.
Can a large Scottsdale home need more than a 200-amp service?
Yes. Some large custom homes in north Scottsdale need a bigger service, or more than one panel, to carry several AC systems, pool and spa equipment and heavy lighting. We size it with a load calculation and coordinate the larger service with APS or SRP.
How do I know if I need a 200-amp panel?
If your home has 100-amp service and you are adding an EV charger, a pool, solar or a larger AC system, you will probably need more capacity. We confirm it with a load calculation, and sometimes a smaller fix like a load management device will work.
Do you pull the permit?
Yes. Panel and service upgrades need a permit in every city we work in. We pull it under our ROC license, schedule the inspection, and handle the corrections if the inspector asks for any.
Who does the work: your crew or subcontractors?
Licensed Precise Electrical electricians. The person who quotes the job can tell you who will be there.
Do you clean up after the job?
