Electrical Panel Upgrade FAQ — Newport, RI

How much does an electrical panel upgrade cost in Newport?

A 200 amp panel upgrade in Newport is typically priced as a flat job that includes the panel, breakers, grounding, permit and inspection. We give you the number in writing before scheduling.

How long is the power off during a panel replacement?

Usually four to six hours. We coordinate the utility disconnect and reconnect so the outage is as short as possible.

Do I need 200 amps?

If you plan to add an EV charger, heat pump, electric range or hot tub, or if your Newport home is over 1,800 square feet, 200 amp service is the sensible standard.

Is my fuse box dangerous?

Fuse boxes are not automatically unsafe, but they are usually undersized and often have oversized fuses installed. We can inspect it and tell you plainly whether replacement is worth it.

Recent reviews near Newport

★★★★★

“Had a Level 2 charger installed in the garage for our new EV. Clean conduit run, permit pulled, and they explained the load calculation so we didn't need a panel upgrade.”

Priya S., Newport
★★★★★

“Recessed lighting in the kitchen and living room, plus dimmers. The layout suggestions were better than what we'd planned ourselves. Fair price, tidy work.”

Linda M., Newport
★★★★★

“Added six outlets and a 240V circuit for a workshop in the basement. Showed up on time, quoted flat, done in a morning.”
