What homeowners in Cottonwood Heights should know about electrical panel upgrade
Cottonwood Heights has a mix of housing eras, so panel work here ranges from FPE Stab-Lok rip-and-replace on 1970s homes to dedicated EV-charger circuits in 2010+ builds. A service upgrade also gives you whole-home surge protection (which costs more to add later) and breaker space for the next 20 years of additions. Every panel we install is permitted, inspected, and tied directly to Salt Lake County utility coordination: we handle the meter pull and the inspection scheduling so you don't have to.

Electrical Panel Upgrade FAQ, Cottonwood Heights edition
How much does a 100A → 200A panel upgrade cost in Cottonwood Heights?
It depends on what the upgrade involves: the standard 200A service, replacing FPE Stab-Lok or Pushmatic breakers along the way, and whether you add a whole-home surge protector during the upgrade (it costs less to add it then than later). The in-home estimate is free, and you get the flat-rate price in writing before any work starts. Permits are included.
Why do I need a panel upgrade?
Most common triggers: insurance company flagging an FPE/Stab-Lok or Pushmatic panel, plans to install an EV charger or heat pump that won't fit on existing service, frequent breaker trips, no available slots for new circuits. Plus, real estate inspectors flag 100A service as a buyer-credit issue at sale.
Are FPE Stab-Lok and Pushmatic panels really dangerous?
Both have been studied extensively. FPE Stab-Lok breakers fail to trip during overload at unacceptable rates (some testing shows 25-50% failure). Pushmatic uses a unique latching mechanism that wears out and arcs. Most insurance carriers now require replacement before issuing or renewing policy. We replace dozens of these per year in Cottonwood Heights.
How long does a panel upgrade take?
One day, typically 6-9 hours. Power is off for 4-6 of those hours. We coordinate with Rocky Mountain Power for the meter pull and re-energize. Outage notice is ~24 hours in advance.
Do you install EV charger circuits during the upgrade?
Yes, and we recommend it. Adding a 50A 240V circuit at the same time as the panel upgrade costs less than adding it later. We pull dedicated 6-AWG copper to your garage and install a hard-wired Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint, or generic NEMA 14-50 outlet: your call on the EVSE.
