Why Upgrade Your Electrical Panel?


Your electrical panel—also called a breaker box or service panel—is responsible for distributing power throughout your home or business. But older systems often fall short in terms of safety, efficiency, and capability. Whether you’re planning a remodel, adding high-powered appliances, or just tired of flickering lights, Powerworks LLC is here to help with custom electrical panel upgrades in Washington, DC.


Here are the most common reasons our clients upgrade:


  • Frequent circuit breaker trips or power outages
  • Adding EV chargers, HVAC units, or large appliances
  • Remodeling, adding square footage, or finishing a basement
  • Upgrading from fuses to circuit breakers
  • Insurance requirements or real estate transactions
  • Replacing outdated or hazardous panels (e.g., Federal Pacific, Zinsco)
