STRAIGHT ANSWERS ON LOADS, WALLS & RATES.

What New Westminster, Burnaby, and Coquitlam homeowners ask us most before booking a 200A panel swap, Level 2 EV charger, or character home rewire.

Not always. Before recommending a $2,850–$3,900 CAD 200A service upgrade, we run a formal Canadian Electrical Code load calculation on your existing 100A panel. If your house doesn't have a secondary suite or electric furnace, we can frequently install an automatic EV Energy Management System (EVEMS) controller ($920–$1,280 CAD) that pauses the EV charger only when your stove and dryer peak at the exact same moment.
