How much does it cost to upgrade electrical service to 200 amps?

Upgrading electrical service to 200 amps is priced case by case and confirmed only after an on-site inspection. Most of the cost usually comes from the new panel and service equipment, plus any wiring adjustments needed to meet current standards and your home’s demand. Our licensed electricians handle these upgrades across the Austin area. On older homes, we often see grounding and bonding updates drive more of the budget than the panel itself. SALT+ members receive annual electrical safety inspections and priority scheduling.

Price is driven by:

• Panel and meter base selection, main breaker size, and room for future circuits.
• Service-entrance updates like mast, conduit, or trenching to the meter.
• Panel location changes, arc-fault/GFCI needs, and labeling cleanup.
• Add-ons such as whole-home surge protection or EV charger/generator readiness.
