How long is the power off during an upgrade?

Usually a few hours during the changeover. We coordinate with the utility to minimize the outage window.

Do you pull the permit?

Yes — Pro Electrical pulls the electrical permit, schedules the inspection, and signs off as the licensed Code 1 electrician of record.

Most older Newfoundland homes were built on 100 amp electrical service, which is fine for the appliances of the 1970s and 80s but tight for modern loads. A heat pump install, an EV charger, an electric range, or a hot tub can quickly push you past what your panel can handle. We do 200 amp service upgrades across NL — pulling the permit, doing the wiring, coordinating the utility shutoff, and handling the inspection.

200 Amp Service & Panel Upgrade — Frequently Asked

It's an upgrade from your existing electrical service — usually 100 amp on older NL homes — to 200 amps, which gives you the headroom to run modern loads like heat pumps, EV chargers, and electric ranges. You probably need one if you're installing a heat pump and your panel is already at or near its limit.

“Quick reliable dependable service.”

“Happy to have participated in your hvac program. Since installation of our heat pump and electric furnace, we are experiencing a more even heat throughout our home. No longer need our electric heater in our porch because of the efficiency of the heat pump. Quick installation and more freedom of space. Added another room on our lower level because we no longer need a wood room. Loving it!”
