200 Amp Service & Panel Upgrade in Corner Brook, NL

Why Corner Brook Homes Need Quality 200 Amp Service & Panel Upgrade

Corner Brook homes deal with deep winter cold, lake-effect snow off Humber Arm, and a lot of older oil-heated houses still running 100 amp electrical service. The combination means most heat pump installs here also need a panel upgrade, and the TakeCharge oil-to-electric program is a popular path.

Most older Newfoundland homes were built on 100 amp electrical service, which is fine for the appliances of the 1970s and 80s but tight for modern loads. A heat pump install, an EV charger, an electric range, or a hot tub can quickly push you past what your panel can handle. We do 200 amp service upgrades across NL — pulling the permit, doing the wiring, coordinating the utility shutoff, and handling the inspection.

The most common reason a Corner Brook homeowner calls us for a panel upgrade is a heat pump install — the new system needs more capacity than the existing panel can provide. The second most common reason is adding an EV charger. Either way, the upgrade includes a new meter base, new service entrance, and a new 200 amp main panel. The power is off for a few hours during the changeover.
