Electrical
Electrical work by the same licensed crew
Solar is electrical work first. The electricians who wire your array also upgrade panels, add EV charger circuits and fix the things a home inspector flags.
Main panel upgrades
200 A service upgrades for solar, batteries, EV chargers and additions, sized by an Article 220 load calculation, permitted and inspected. What the code requires.
EV charger circuits
Level 2 charging on a dedicated circuit, sized for what you drive and what your panel can support. Why the code counts a charger as 7,200 VA.
Sub-panels and circuits
Garages, casitas, pool equipment, workshops and kitchens.
Backup interconnections
Transfer switches and gateways for batteries and standby generators.
Troubleshooting and repairs
Tripping breakers, dead circuits, aluminum wiring assessments, inspection punch lists.
Lighting and controls
Exterior lighting, ceiling fans, smart switches and timers.
Whole house surge protection
Required by NEC 230.67 on every dwelling service, and again whenever the service equipment is replaced. What that means for a panel upgrade.
