Electrical Panel Upgrades in Arlington, VA

A large share of Arlington's original housing stock — the 1940s and 50s bungalows and Cape Cods throughout neighborhoods like Westover and Ashton Heights — was built with panels sized for a much smaller electrical footprint than these homes carry today. Panel upgrades here are one of the most common calls we get.

Why it matters in Arlington

  • Upgrades from original 60-100A service to modern 150-200A capacity
  • Grounding and bonding brought up to current code alongside the panel itself
  • Coordination with Arlington County permitting and inspection
How common are undersized panels in older Arlington homes?+

Very common. Many of Arlington's 1940s-50s homes were originally built with 60-amp service, which is well below what a modern household with central air, electronics and larger appliances typically needs.

Does Arlington County require a permit for a panel upgrade?+

Yes. We handle the permit application and coordinate the required inspection as part of the job.
