Electrical Panel Upgrades in Knoxville by HEP

An outdated breaker box can limit the safety, efficiency, and resale value of a home. HEP’s licensed Knoxville electricians specialize in electrical panel upgrades that keep power flowing reliably while meeting today’s demanding load requirements.

Why an Electrical Panel Upgrade Matters

Modern households run on more electricity than ever before—high-efficiency HVAC systems, smart appliances, electric vehicle chargers, and extensive entertainment setups all demand ample, stable power. An older 60-amp or 100-amp panel often struggles to keep up, triggering flickering lights or tripped breakers.

Common troubles linked to undersized or aging panels include:

Overheating conductors that can lead to fire hazards
Insufficient amperage for new appliance installations
Insurance compliance issues and potential policy cancellations
Limited circuit space, forcing homeowners to rely on extension cords and power strips

Upgrading to a 150-amp or 200-amp service eliminates these pain points, supports future home improvements, and aligns with the latest National Electrical Code (NEC) standards.

Voltage drop considerations for larger properties

2. Permitting & Coordination

Knoxville permitting requirements
Utility service disconnect and reconnect scheduling
Coordination with inspectors for a seamless sign-off

3. Precision Installation

On installation day, the crew:
