Panel Upgrades
200A Panel Upgrade
Replaced an aging 100A panel with a 200A service to support an EV charger and heat pump.
ResidentialTimeline: 1 day
Overview
A growing family in Bellevue was adding an EV and replacing their gas furnace with a heat pump, two big new loads their original 100A service simply couldn't carry. We upsized the home to a 200A service in a single day, giving them clean capacity to electrify without tripping breakers.
The challenge
The existing 100A panel was already near capacity, with double-tapped breakers and no open slots. Adding a Level 2 charger and a heat pump on top would have overloaded the service and created a safety hazard.
What we did
We ran a full load calculation, coordinated the utility disconnect, and replaced the meter base and panel with a 200A service. Every circuit was re-landed on its own breaker, labeled clearly, and grounding and bonding were brought up to current code.
Results
- Service capacity doubled from 100A to 200A
- Dedicated circuits added for the EV charger and heat pump
- Every branch circuit re-landed and clearly labeled
- Passed jurisdiction inspection on the first visit
