"They were a great company to work with. They even found me a $600 tax rebate for upgrading my panel that I would not have thought to look for. They were always on time and got things done very quickly. Even the permits were done very fast. Other companies said permits can take 3 or 4 weeks. Avant had it all permitted and completed in 2 weeks."

Customers say: Quick response

"I'm very pleased with my experience working with safety first electric, and I will use them again if I have another issue that requires an electrician. My family had a late night emergency caused by arcing noises in our original electrical panel. Cris from Safety First showed up late at night and quickly narrowed the problem down to specific breakers that had worn out and damaged the panel. Cris made two sensible recommendations on next steps, and Safety First returned with a crew of three guys to replace the panel and trace the circuits through my house. The job got done in one day to a high level of quality. All of the electricians we worked with were friendly, knowledgeable and hard working."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Campbell, CA

While homeowners with substantial electrical knowledge might technically attempt a subpanel installation, most local building departments require permits and inspections for this type of work. Professional electricians understand local code requirements, can obtain necessary permits, and ensure the installation meets safety standards. Given the significant safety risks associated with incorrect electrical work, most homeowners benefit from hiring a licensed professional.

A standard subpanel installation takes an average of four to eight hours. This timeframe may extend if you're installing multiple subpanels or adding specialized circuits like those for spa equipment. Factors such as difficult access points, complex wiring paths, or permit processing times can also affect the overall project duration.

Adding a subpanel doesn't directly reduce electricity consumption or lower your utility bills. A subpanel simply redistributes power from your main panel to additional circuits. However, organizing your electrical system more efficiently may help prevent overloaded circuits and the associated problems. For actual cost savings, consider energy-efficient appliances and lighting instead.

The appropriate subpanel size depends on your specific electrical requirements. Consider the number and type of devices you'll be powering, potential future needs, and the capacity of your main electrical panel. An electrician can perform a load calculation to determine the most suitable amperage rating for your situation, ensuring you have adequate power without overpaying for unnecessary capacity.

A main electrical panel connects directly to your utility's power supply and contains your home's primary service disconnect. It distributes electricity throughout your entire house. A subpanel, by contrast, receives power from the main panel and redistributes it to a specific area of your home. Think of the main panel as the primary distribution point and the subpanel as a secondary branch that extends your electrical system's reach.

While electrical upgrades aren't as immediately visible as kitchen or bathroom renovations, they can contribute to your home's functionality and safety. Prospective buyers often appreciate updated electrical systems that can accommodate modern power demands. A properly installed subpanel that provides additional capacity for workshops, home offices, or future expansions could be an attractive feature for certain buyers, though the direct impact on home value varies by market.
