Clear project communication
A main electrical service upgrade changes the main electrical supply to better suit the needs of your home. The work can include checking the service, meter, panel, wiring, and current electrical load before the upgrade. A qualified electrician reviews the existing setup and explains what work may be needed for the property.
Is your main electrical service ready for an upgrade?
Your home's power needs can grow as you add appliances, EV charging, heating equipment, or make other changes. An older service may not suit these new demands. Checking the main service before work starts helps show whether an upgrade or other electrical work may be needed.
More power needed at home
Adding several appliances or other equipment can increase the electrical demand on your home. We review the existing service and discuss the planned changes.
Limited main service
Your current electrical service may have limited capacity for new equipment. We check the existing setup and explain what options may suit your home.
Planning a major renovation
A large renovation can bring new rooms, appliances, lights, and outlets. Reviewing the main service early can help you plan the electrical work.
Adding an EV charger
An EV charger adds another electrical load to your home. We review the existing service and consider the charger along with your other electrical needs.
How we upgrade your main electrical service
We start by reviewing your Burnaby home's main electrical service, panel, wiring, and current power use. We also ask about new appliances, EV charging, renovations, or other changes you have planned. This gives us a clear picture before we prepare the upgrade plan and quote.
