Electrical Panel Upgrade service for Portal and nearby towns
Your electrical panel decides how much your home can run at once. If the breaker box is full, undersized or decades old, an electrical panel upgrade in Portal gives you the capacity and protection today's loads call for.
Not every home needs a full service upgrade. Sometimes a sub panel installation or a like-for-like panel replacement solves the problem for less. We run a load calculation and recommend the option that fits.
Around Portal, older farm and ranch homes sit near housing and shops built during the Bakken years. We work on both. Open country and steady wind in Burke County are hard on overhead services and outdoor equipment, which keeps surge protection, yard lighting and backup generators high on the list.

Electrical Panel Upgrade in Portal: common questions
How long does a panel upgrade take?
Most panel replacements are done in a day. Power is off for part of that day, and we schedule the utility disconnect and reconnect in advance.
Do I need 200 amps?
If you plan an EV charger, electric heat, a hot tub or a shop, 200 amps is usually the right size. A load calculation gives the real answer for your Portal home.
Can you replace a fuse box?
Yes. Fuse box replacement with a modern breaker panel is one of the most common upgrades we do.
