Is Your Electrical Panel Keeping Up?

Most homes built before 1990 were designed for far less electrical demand than we place on them today. Between EV chargers, home offices, smart appliances, and HVAC systems, older 100-amp panels simply can't keep up — and that's not just an inconvenience, it's a safety hazard.

Royal Electric Services specializes in residential electrical panel upgrades throughout the Raleigh-Durham area. We upgrade your panel to 200-amp or 400-amp service, install new breakers, and ensure everything meets current NC electrical code — with all permits pulled and inspections passed.

Signs You Need a Panel Upgrade

  • Breakers that trip frequently or won't reset
  • Flickering or dimming lights when appliances run
  • Burning smell or scorch marks near the panel
  • Panel is a Federal Pacific, Zinsco, or fuse box
  • You're adding an EV charger, hot tub, or major appliance
  • Your home is over 30 years old and hasn't been upgraded
  • You're planning a home addition or renovation
  • Insurance company is requiring an upgrade
