Electrical Panel Upgrades in Orange County & Los Angeles
If you notice that your home in Orange County, CA is not getting enough power, you may need a professional electrical panel upgrade to safely support modern appliances and higher energy demands. The electrical panel plays a key role in your home’s electrical system. By taking the time to upgrade to a new 200-amp electrical panel, you will have confidence in your safety and your panel’s ability to handle the needs of your family.
Electrical panels, or breaker panels, supply power to everything in your home, from your air conditioning system and kitchen appliances to your lighting and living room entertainment system. Older panels often can’t support high-power appliances used in homes today. Even worse, if your home still has fuse boxes, each fuse isn’t strong enough to safely power an appliance that requires higher electrical currents than it can support.
What Is an Electric Panel?
An electric panel is the distribution board of your home’s electricity. The panel acts as a divider for electricity in your house. A panel receives the electricity from your power company and breaks it down to send power to different areas of your home. When your breaker panel is too small or gets too old, it does not work effectively for your needs. In some cases, your panel may send too much power into your wires. This causes the wires to melt and increases the risk of a fire or an electrical shock when you plug in your heating or air conditioning system.
When an older electric panel has too much power, your fuse blows. With a newer system, the circuit breaker will flip into the off position to prevent the wires from melting. The breaker flips when an electromagnet receives enough current trigger a metal lever. To reset the breaker, all you need to do is flip the breaker switch back.

“My thermostat took a dive on me so I went to replace it. That's where I met Breanna at Home Depot she advised me on the Ecobee one and normally I don't use big companies because of cost is always higher since they have higher overhead. However, at $49 for a diagnostic they sent someone out and that's when things got even better Lazaro was our technician. He was trustworthy and communicative and effective at explaining to me and my wife what he's doing to our unit and why. In the end because of his demeanor and character I chose to get work done through his company. I got an ionizer placed and he patched a few areas where air was escaping. Cleaned condenser and added a second capacitor and cleaned the fan on inside of my house as well as checked the coils which were fine. In summary the company is trustworthy or at least my experience was good. At at a $49 diagnostic fee it was worth it to have someone come out and let me know where I'm at. Can't say enough though about Lazaro he sold me on trusting next gen so if everyone is like him you'll find value.”- S.S.

“My technician Joseph was a solid and upstanding dude. He took his time doing an inspection of my old hvac system. He let me hover over him and helped educate me on the different components of the furnace and AC units. He didn’t tell me what I wanted to hear, but he told me what I needed to hear. Would trust him and his team to do my maintenance and future installs for my home.”- Andrew W.

“My AC stopped working and gave me a power failure message. Ryan was dispatched as the technician to assist. He was great, he quickly diagnosed the issues (fuses and capacitors). He gave me practical solutions and was great to work with. If I have issues in the future I will be asking for him specifically.”- Roger D.
