How It Works

Our Panel Upgrade Process

We keep the process straightforward so you know what to expect before any work begins.

01Step 1

On-Site Assessment

A licensed electrician visits your property to evaluate your current panel, load requirements, and any code considerations specific to your home or business.

02Step 2

Scope and Permit

We outline the work needed, pull the required permits, and coordinate with your utility company if a service upgrade is part of the job.

03Step 3

Panel Installation

Your old panel is safely de-energized, removed, and replaced. All wiring connections are made to current NEC and Oregon electrical code standards.

04Step 4

Inspection and Sign-Off

We schedule the required inspection and walk you through the completed work so you understand your new system before we leave.

Frequently asked

Common Questions About Electrical Panel Upgrades

Find clear answers about service options, scheduling, preparation, and what to expect before you request an estimate.

Q1

How do I know if my panel needs an upgrade?

Common signs include frequently tripping breakers, flickering lights, a fuse box instead of a breaker panel, or a panel rated at 60-100 amps in a home with modern appliances. If you're adding an EV charger or major appliance, your current panel may not have enough capacity.

Q2

What size panel does my home typically need?

Most modern homes are served well by a 200-amp panel. Larger homes or those with electric vehicles, workshops, or multiple HVAC systems may benefit from a larger service. We assess your actual load before making a recommendation.

Q3

Do I need a permit for a panel upgrade in Oregon?

Yes. Electrical panel upgrades in Oregon require a permit and inspection through your local building department. Highline Electric handles the permitting process as part of the job.

Q4

Will my power be off during the upgrade?

Yes, your power will be off during the panel replacement portion of the work. We coordinate the schedule to minimize disruption and complete the work as efficiently as possible.

Q5

Can a panel upgrade support an EV charger?

Often, yes. Level 2 EV chargers require a dedicated 240-volt circuit. If your current panel lacks the capacity or available breaker slots, upgrading it first makes EV charger installation straightforward.

Q6

Do you serve areas outside Woodburn?

Yes. We serve Woodburn, Salem, Keizer, Sandy, and Beaverton, OR. If you're in the surrounding area and have questions, give us a call to confirm coverage.

Q7

How long does a panel upgrade typically take?

Most residential panel upgrades are completed in a single day. More complex jobs, such as a full service upgrade coordinated with the utility, may take longer depending on scheduling and inspection timelines.

Q8

What happens if my panel is fine but a breaker keeps tripping?

A single tripping breaker may point to a faulty breaker, an overloaded circuit, or a wiring issue rather than a full panel problem. We offer circuit troubleshooting and circuit breaker repair as separate services if an upgrade isn't what's needed.
