"My previous electrician had sadly done a terrible job performing my panel upgrade from 100a to 200a. Also, the permitting stages were not followed and I was unfortunately not compliant because of it. After shopping around for many electricians, I eventually met Mike and knew he was the guy that I was going to work with. Mike explained every detail one step at a time. My project was a large project since I was to not only rewire my 200amp panel, we had to fix grounding, water bonding, and also Trench 4 feet deep for SDGE to upgrade our line from 100a to 200a as well. This was a long and stressful process that became super easy because of the effort and work put in by Mike and his team. Mike was here for all of the permitting stages whenever the city or SDGE was here, so that he could answer all their questions and concerns directly. Mike will continue being my electrician from now on. I highly suggest MIke and his team for all of your electrician needs. They are very quick to answer phone calls, text messages, explain all processes and next steps. Super fortunate to have Mike on my home improvement team."

"3 ceiling fans and 1 ceiling light were installed in 1 day as promised. I like that they text me a day before to confirm/remind me of the upcoming appointment, and that they show up on time. They were courteous and professional. They cleaned up, patched up, and vacuum after the job. I'm pleased with the job performed and would definitely use them again for any future electrical related jobs."

"Excellence Electric is just that: excellent on every level. They did a panel upgrade and install of a level 2 electric car charger. The company is family owned (father and son). They did a tremendous job at a very good price. Their attention to detail and workmanship was remarkable. They had to run conduit up the back of my house. They matched the paint at Home Depot that perfectly blended with our house color. Such personable, honest people. Ray jr. told me as he was walking from the job: any problems, or concerns, we’ll take care of it no questions asked. I could not more highly recommend!"

"Today I had Higher Power Electrical come out to install a Level 2 EV charger at my home, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From start to finish, the electrician was incredibly respectful, easygoing, and professional. He took the time to walk me through the entire process, making sure I understood each step of the installation. I really appreciated how clearly he explained everything—from the panel upgrades to the placement of the new breaker. It wasn’t just a quick install and go; he made sure I was fully informed and comfortable with the work being done. He also showed me the new NEMA 14-50 outlet and explained that it was installed to meet the proper approval and safety standards, which gave me great peace of mind. The attention to detail and clear communication throughout made the experience smooth."

"I got a few estimates to get more power out to my studio. Everyone quoted me about 4K to upgrade my panel and get dedicated line out to my studion. These guys were to only ones that looked for a better/more economical solution. I sent a pic of my panel and he remembered that I upgraded my kitchen a while back but noticed that my electric stove had it's own dedicated line. He asked me, did you convert to gas when you remodeled? I said yes and he said, great, we take the line that was dedicated to the stove and we use that. It saved me $1500 and it worked perfectly. I would absolutely hire again!"

"Mark did an exceptional job for us that was complicated and involved special knowledge in low voltage wiring. He found several issues that prevented me from completing the wiring for two Ring doorbells and two chimes in the house. He has excellent customer service skills and I will definitely have him back for other electrical work. Thanks, Mark! Daniel Danner"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Dana Point, 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.
