Residential Panel & Service Upgrades

Power Your Home Safely, Reliably, and for the Future

Your electrical panel is the heart of your home — distributing power to every outlet, appliance, and light.
When panels age or can’t handle modern electrical demands, they can become a serious safety risk.

At The Wire Nuts LLC, we specialize in residential electrical panel and service upgrades for homeowners across Dodge, Washington, Waukesha, Milwaukee, and Fond du Lac counties.
Whether your lights are flickering, breakers keep tripping, or you’re planning a home renovation, we’ll make sure your electrical system is safe, compliant, and ready for today’s technology.

Why Upgrade Your Electrical Panel?

Older electrical systems were never designed for today’s power loads.
Between high-efficiency appliances, EV chargers, HVAC systems, and electronics, most homes are simply using more electricity than ever before.

You may need a panel upgrade if:

  • Lights dim or flicker when appliances run

  • Circuit breakers trip frequently

  • Your home still has fuses or an outdated 60A / 100A panel

  • You’re adding new appliances, air conditioning, or an EV charger

  • There’s not enough space in your existing panel for new circuits

A modern electrical panel increases both safety and convenience — giving you peace of mind and the capacity your home needs.

What’s Included in a Panel Upgrade

Our licensed electricians handle every step — from the first inspection to final testing and city inspection sign-off.

Our panel upgrade process includes:

  • Complete removal of your existing panel

  • Installation of a new, modern 200-amp (or higher) service panel

  • Grounding and bonding improvements

  • Dedicated circuits for appliances and high-load devices

  • Replacement of damaged or outdated breaker

  • Utility coordination and permit handling

Every installation meets the latest Wisconsin Electrical Code and National Electrical Code (NEC) standards for safety and performance.
