"Ryan and his team were awesome at replacing my home’s electric panel. They communicated well throughout the entire process, did a great job, explained things clearly, and the price was reasonable. They came back the next day to make sure everything was working properly. I will use them for future projects. Highly recommend."

"I hired R and J Brothers to upgrade our electrical box. Rey and Garrett are very personable and professional and did a great job from start to finish. In fact, we were so pleased with the job they did that we hired them for additional work to install new light fixtures and recessed lighting throughout the home. I would certainly hire them again and recommend them to someone in need of an electrician."

"We hired Ken of North Crest LLC to upgrade our electrical panel and install a new outlet. In the process, he discovered that we still had some dangerous old knob-and-tube wiring. So he checked and replaced multiple outlets, rewired a ceiling fan, and installed 2 replacement light fixtures. Thank you so much, Ken, for making our old house safer! We plan to hire Ken again to upgrade our kitchen and bathroom. Would gladly recommend him to anyone!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Vernon/Voltar Electric company is my savior! Vernon and his team came and rescued my job from a shoddy contractor that didn't know his left foot from his right when it came to renovating and electric. Vernon and his crew came in and troubleshooted the problem and gave me a fantastic outcome with all my issues resolved and at a reasonable price I might say. I had the job quoted by a company before Voltar Electric and the company wanted an astronomical amount of money. Needless to say they didn't get a call back. Vernon is a gentleman and man of his word who will do the best job that is possible for you. He went the extra mile to make sure everything was done complete and correct. You will not go wrong hiring Voltar Electric for your needs, you will have an amazing experience. I will be using Vernon/Voltar electric for all my future electrical needs and I highly recommend. You will not be disappointed. Services: Repair outlets or switches, Relocate outlets or switches, Install outlets or switches, Repair light fixtures, Installation, Install ground wire"

"We had an excellent experience with this electrician at our 120,000 sq ft office building. He came out to perform repairs and upgrades on our electrical systems and delivered truly professional, high‑quality workmanship from start to finish. His knowledge, attention to detail, and clear communication made the entire process smooth and efficient. It’s not easy finding someone who can handle large‑scale commercial electrical work with this level of skill and reliability. He showed up on time, worked safely, and made sure everything was done correctly the first time. I highly recommend him for any commercial or residential electrical needs. Outstanding service and professionalism"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Maplewood, NJ

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.
