Featured Electrical Installation Question

What's the difference between a 100-amp and 200-amp electrical panel?

A 100-amp panel supplies electricity at a fixed maximum rate; a 200-amp panel supplies twice the power, allowing you to run more appliances simultaneously.

• 100-amp: Typical in homes built before 1990; supports basic lighting and 1–2 major appliances
• 200-amp: Modern standard; handles HVAC, electric water heaters, EV chargers, and multiple high-draw appliances
• Upgrade cost: Depends on panel location and utility company rules; call for a free estimate

If your lights flicker when appliances turn on, a panel upgrade is likely needed.
