A safer panel for Canby

Your electrical panel decides what your Canby home can safely run. When it is old, full, or flagged by an insurer, replacing it is the fix. The job can be a straight panel replacement or a larger service upgrade. Many homes go to a 200-amp service, and we size it to your house and what you plan to add.

Signs it is time

  • Frequent breaker trips: the panel is overloaded.
  • Flickering or dimming lights: especially when a big appliance starts.
  • A fuse box: it lacks the protection of a modern breaker panel.
  • Buzzing, crackling, or a burning smell: call an electrician right away.
  • Visible damage: rust, corrosion, or burn marks.

FPE, Zinsco, and insurance

If your insurer asked you to replace an FPE or Zinsco panel on your Canby home, you are not alone. These older brands are a known fire risk. The brand is printed on the panel label. If it reads FPE, Federal Pacific, or Zinsco, we will confirm it and quote the swap.

Room for an EV charger, solar, or a battery

Here in Canby, if you are planning an EV charger, solar, a battery, or a generator, we look at the panel first, because older ones may not have the room.

One team handles EV chargers, solar, batteries, generators, and panels, so the plan fits together.

Three common jobs

Canby homes usually need one of three panel jobs.

Replacing the panel

The old panel comes out and a new breaker panel goes in, sized to what your home needs.

Replacing a fuse box

A fuse box can be swapped for a breaker panel, which is safer and easier to live with.

Service and capacity upgrade

Older homes often have 60 or 100 amp service. A larger service gives you headroom for an EV charger, solar, or a renovation in Canby.

What the upgrade looks like

In Canby, a panel upgrade runs in four steps: consultation and design, permitting, installation, then activation and support.

  1. Consultation and design: we review the panel brand, size, and what you may add later.
  2. Permitting and paperwork: we pull the Oregon permit.
  3. Installation: in-house licensed electricians do the replacement.
  4. Activation and support: we energize, label, and check the new panel, then stay available.

The permit is required and is handled by us.
