North Austin Panel Upgrades

Why Electrical Panel Upgrades Are Essential in North Austin

In North Austin, rapid growth, aging infrastructure, and the increasing demands of modern appliances are pushing electrical systems to their limits. Whether you’re powering up new gadgets, upgrading your home, or preparing your space for an electric vehicle (EV) charger, an electrical panel upgrade is often essential. Without an updated electrical panel, your home or business can suffer from overloads, frequent power outages, or even safety hazards.

Older homes and businesses in North Austin, including Anderson Mill, Cedar Park, and Brushy Creek, often have electrical panels that were not designed to handle the heavy usage typical today. Modern systems demand more power—especially during Texas summers, when air conditioners and other appliances are running full blast. That’s where Shipley Electric, LLC comes in. Our expert electricians have over 25 years of experience helping homeowners and business owners in Austin modernize their electrical panels for safety, efficiency, and future growth.

   Our licensed electricians begin by assessing your current panel and overall electrical system. We take into account your energy usage, future needs, and whether you’re planning to add new electrical devices such as EV chargers, large appliances, or home automation systems.

2. Customized Solutions:
   Based on your needs, we recommend the appropriate panel size and configuration. We’ll discuss the options with you, including the benefits of upgrading to a panel that can handle higher amperage and future technology.

   Our electricians will safely remove your old panel and install the new one with precision. We use high-quality materials and ensure that the wiring is properly configured for your home or business’s energy needs.
