Hear from Our Customers
You flip a switch and the lights work. Every time. Your microwave doesn’t dim the kitchen lights. Your breakers stop tripping when you run the dishwasher and TV simultaneously.
That’s what happens when your electrical panel can actually handle what you’re asking it to do. Most Plainfield homes built before 2000 are running on 100-amp panels that were never designed for today’s electrical demands.
Modern homes need 200-amp service to run efficiently. When you upgrade, you’re not just fixing today’s problems – you’re preparing for tomorrow’s needs. EV chargers, smart home devices, kitchen remodels, finished basements. Your upgraded panel handles it all without breaking a sweat.
We’ve been handling electrical emergencies and panel upgrades in Plainfield for over two decades. When your breakers trip at 10 PM or you smell something burning from your electrical panel, you need someone who knows exactly what they’re doing.
We’re licensed, bonded, and insured because electrical work isn’t a place to cut corners. Our focus is residential electrical service – we understand what homeowners in Plainfield deal with every day.
Most of our customers are busy homeowners who just want their electrical system to work reliably. They don’t want to think about their electrical panel until they absolutely have to. We make sure they don’t have to think about it again for decades.
We start with a thorough evaluation of your current electrical system. Not just the panel – the whole setup. We need to understand what’s working, what isn’t, and what you’ll need going forward.
Next, we handle all the permits and utility coordination. In Plainfield, this means working with your local building department and ComEd to ensure everything meets code requirements. We schedule the work when it’s convenient for you.
On installation day, we temporarily disconnect your power, remove your old panel, and install your new 200-amp system. Most panel upgrades take 4-8 hours. We test everything thoroughly before we consider the job complete. You’ll have reliable power that can handle whatever you throw at it.

Your electrical panel upgrade includes a new 200-amp main panel with modern circuit breakers, updated grounding systems, and code-compliant installation. We also upgrade your meter base if needed and ensure your home’s wiring can handle the increased capacity.
In Plainfield, we see a lot of homes from the 1980s and 1990s that are still running on their original 100-amp panels. These homes typically have central air, multiple large appliances, and families who use more electrical devices than the original system was designed to handle.
We also install GFCI protection where required by current codes and add capacity for future needs. Whether you’re planning to add an EV charger, finish your basement, or just want to stop worrying about your electrical system, we build in the capacity you’ll need. Many Plainfield homeowners are surprised by how much more reliable their electrical system becomes after an upgrade.
