Safe, code-compliant electrical panel upgrades for homes and businesses.

Powering Homes & Businesses Safely Since 1922

At Longacre Company, we’ve been working with electricity since 1922 — back when electrical panels were a luxury and the average home couldn’t dream of running today’s modern appliances. Now, as demand for electricity continues to grow, we help our community keep up by providing expert electrical panel replacement and installation services.

Whether you’re upgrading your amperage for a growing home or installing a three-phase system to handle a commercial load, our team is here to deliver safe, reliable results.

What Is An Electrical Panel & Why Might You Need A New One?

Your electrical panel is the control center of your home or business’s power system. It regulates how electricity flows through circuits and ensures your property can safely handle your current energy demands.

Over time, electrical panels can become outdated or insufficient — especially if your property is older or your usage has increased. Replacing your panel allows for:

  • Increased safety
  • Support for higher electrical loads
  • Fewer outages, surges and tripped breakers
  • Compatibility with modern appliances and EV chargers

If you’ve ever wondered about the cost of replacing an electrical panel or whether your panel can support your current needs, it’s time to talk to the experts at Longacre.

Signs You May Need An Electrical Panel Upgrade

Upgrading or replacing your panel isn’t just about convenience — it’s often necessary for safety. Here are a few warning signs that your current system may be outdated or overloaded:

  • Frequent tripped breakers
  • Flickering lights
  • Buzzing or humming from outlets
  • Burn marks on outlets or the panel itself
  • A burning smell near electrical components
  • Power surges when multiple appliances are used

Our electricians can perform a full inspection and recommend whether you need a panel replacement, an amp upgrade, or more robust service like a three-phase power installation.

AMP Upgrades For Residential Properties

Modern homes often require more power than panels from past decades were designed to handle. Most older homes were built with 60- or 100-amp panels — but today, 200 amps is the new standard.

Upgrading your amperage may be essential if:

  • You’ve added new appliances or HVAC equipment
  • You’re planning a home addition or remodel
  • You own an EV or are planning to install a charger
  • You’ve noticed electrical issues due to overload

At Longacre, we specialize in electrical panel installations that meet modern needs while keeping your home safe and compliant with code.

Three-Phase Power Systems For Commercial Properties

If you own a commercial property with heavy equipment or high energy demands, a standard single-phase system might not cut it. A three-phase power system provides continuous current that’s ideal for:

  • Manufacturing equipment
  • HVAC systems in large buildings
  • Commercial kitchens or laundromats
  • Industrial machinery

These systems require specialized wiring, panels and outlets — and our team is fully equipped to handle the job from start to finish.

What To Expect From Your Electrical Panel Service

All electrical panel replacement and installation services should be performed by a licensed, qualified professional. At Longacre, our electricians ensure:

  • Full inspections of your current system
  • Permitting and code compliance
  • Safe removal and installation
  • Upgrades to wiring, meter and grounding if needed
  • Coordination with your power utility if necessary

Most residential panel upgrades are completed in a single day, with minimal disruption to your daily life.

How Much Does It Cost To Replace An Electrical Panel?

The cost to replace an electrical panel can vary based on the size of your home or business, the amperage required and whether additional upgrades (like rewiring or new circuits) are needed.

On average, homeowners in Montgomery County can expect panel replacements to range from $1,500 to $3,500 — with commercial three-phase installations often higher.
