How do I know if my panel needs to be replaced?

Signs include frequent breaker trips, warm panel covers, lack of space for new circuits, or outdated fuse boxes. We’ll inspect and confirm.

Is 100-amp service still enough?

For small homes, yes. But if you’re adding EV chargers, hot tubs, or HVAC, we often recommend upgrading to 200-amp service.

Will I lose power during work?

Yes, temporarily. We schedule utility disconnects in advance and restore power as quickly as possible—usually the same day.

Do you handle permits and inspections?

Absolutely. We obtain all required permits, schedule inspections, and ensure the entire job meets current BC code requirements.

Can I add solar or EV later with a new panel?

Yes. We design your panel to accommodate future needs, such as solar tie-ins or EV chargers—so you’re ready when the time comes.

Standard Panel Replacement

Your panel is the control center of your electrical system—and when it’s outdated, everything suffers. Flickering lights, tripping breakers, and limited capacity are all signs it’s time for a replacement. Unity and Light Electric Inc provides professional panel upgrades for homes, farms, and businesses across the North Okanagan. We remove old or unsafe panels and install modern replacements built to handle today’s energy loads. Whether you’re upgrading for safety, adding new appliances, or preparing for EV or solar, we’ll make sure your power system is ready for what’s next.

Old panels aren’t just inconvenient—they’re risky. Breakers that don’t trip, loose connections, and outdated wiring can cause serious hazards. We replace outdated fuse boxes and worn-out breaker panels with modern, code-compliant systems that offer better safety, efficiency, and capacity. At Unity and Light Electric Inc, we take care of everything: permit coordination, utility shutoff, panel installation, labeling, and testing. You’ll get a clean, organized panel that’s built for the future—and peace of mind knowing your power system is safe.

We don’t just swap boxes—we upgrade your system to match your property’s actual power demand. Whether you’re running a small home or a busy workshop, we calculate your load needs and install the right amperage panel to match. From 100-amp to 200-amp service, we handle wire sizing, bonding, and breaker layout with care. Unity and Light Electric Inc serves both urban and rural clients, designing panel solutions that support solar tie-ins, EV charging, HVAC, and more. It’s not just about what you have today—it’s about what you’ll need tomorrow.
