"Matt did an excellent job rewiring my 1900+ square foot home built in 1956. They switched out my panel from the old fuse type to a new panel box. Upgraded the main panel box with a larger amp to handle the upgrade. They were extremely professional polite and always on time. Matt was great about communicating with me the process and needs for the house. I will be hiring MB Electric to do additional electrical work for the installation of a whole house fan. I highly recommend Matt and Abel. "

"The owner responded quickly and came to our home for a free estimate within hours. He recommended installing a new outlet to prevent electrical issues down the road. The job was completed within 72hrs (due to the weekend) and we were very happy with the work. I would highly recommend and will use them again for future needs."

"Excellent service! I needed my garage breaker and outlet repaired and they did an amazing job. They arrived on time, quickly figured out the problem, and fixed it efficiently. They were professional, friendly, and made sure everything was safe and working properly before leaving. It’s such a relief to find someone reliable for electrical work. I would absolutely use them again and highly recommend them!"

"Luis & Carlos they are awesome! They are efficient in there work, worked well as a team. Upgraded the electrical through out the whole house. Installed new plug-ins, light switches, fans in all our rooms. Installed several round ceiling lights in the kitchen, living-room and bedrooms, lights dim low, and high, gives living space elegance. Wall lamps outside back and front. Camera?s & sensor lights. For our dogs installed a pole/lights, unground electrical to the pole, got switches to turn off & on from the inside of the house. We had a problem through out the years where our lights would flicker, they got the PG&E to come out urgently to work in the electrical that goes to our house roof to the street poles. That was a plus, could?ve been hazardous to our home. We have a four bedroom home and two half bath. Took about two months but it was worth it all through the mess, lol. Enjoyed every moment having them, friendly, easy to talk to. Love them?. You won?t regret "

"Absolutely amazing !!! They have fixed a long standing electrical issue with my 100 year old farmhouse. I highly recommend them for any of your electrical needs. Very friendly and quick. The job was talked about Thursday and they came at 7am and had it completed by 9:30 am. Years and years of hearing that my industrial mechanic husband was not an “electrician” and I found my own electrician. Thank you so much Sergio !!! It works amazing !!!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Merced, 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.
