The Hills Panel Upgrades

Localized, Engaging Introduction

Nestled on the shores of Lake Travis just northwest of downtown Austin, The Hills is known for scenic views, winding roads, and charming residences built across several decades. However, many homes here still rely on aging electrical panels that struggle under modern demands—from high-efficiency HVAC systems battling Texas heat to dedicated circuits for home offices and electric vehicle chargers. Without a properly sized, code-compliant panel, you risk nuisance breaker trips, unsafe wiring conditions, and even fire hazards. At Shipley Electric, LLC, we specialize in The Hills panel upgrades that bring your home’s electrical infrastructure into the 21st century—delivering the safety, capacity, and reliability you deserve in the Lone Star State.

Detailed Overview of Services

When you choose Shipley Electric, LLC for your panel upgrade in The Hills, you’re partnering with Austin’s premier electrical experts. Here’s how we ensure every project meets the highest standards:

  1. Personalized Consultation & Load Assessment

    • We begin by reviewing your current and anticipated power needs—whether you’re adding a pool heater, a Level 2 EV charger, or a new entertainment system.

    • Our electricians perform precise load calculations to determine the right panel size (commonly 200-amp or 400-amp) and inspect existing wiring and grounding for safety.

  2. Streamlined Permitting & Code Compliance

    • Navigating permitting requirements for The Hills and Travis County can be complex. We handle all permit applications, plan submissions, and scheduling of city or county inspections.

    • Every upgrade complies with the latest National Electrical Code (NEC) and local amendments, ensuring your home passes final inspection without delays.

  3. Expert Installation with Premium Components

    • We install your new panel using high-quality breakers, surge protection devices, and copper bus bars for superior conductivity.

    • All wiring is neatly organized, labeled, and secured, making future maintenance straightforward and safer.

  4. Comprehensive Testing & Final Review

    • Once installation is complete, we rigorously test each circuit under load, verify proper grounding, and measure voltage stability.

    • We walk you through your new panel’s operation, review safety features, and ensure you’re comfortable with your upgraded system.
