Electrical Panel Upgrade
Edmonton

Voltura's standard 200A panel upgrade in Edmonton starts at $3,500 all-inclusive — this covers the permit, City of Edmonton inspection fee, all labour, the new panel and breakers, disposal of the old panel, and coordination with EPCOR for the power disconnect and reconnect. Final price depends on your service entrance condition, meter location, and whether any additional work is required (such as grounding upgrades or meter base replacement). We confirm your exact written price before any work begins.

Most residential panel upgrades in Edmonton are completed in a single day, typically 6–8 hours. Your power will be off while we disconnect, replace the panel, and reconnect at the meter. We coordinate with EPCOR in advance and schedule the job at a time that minimizes disruption to your household. Complex jobs involving service entrance replacement or large conduit runs may require a second day.

Yes — all electrical panel upgrades in Edmonton require an electrical permit under the Alberta Safety Codes Act, and a City of Edmonton electrical inspection must be completed before power is permanently restored. Voltura pulls the permit on your behalf and coordinates the inspection as a standard part of every panel upgrade. Working without a permit is illegal, voids your home insurance, and creates serious complications when selling your home.

Yes — and we strongly recommend combining them. Adding a Level 2 EV charger (240V, 40–50A circuit) at the same time as your panel upgrade saves significantly on labour because the electrician is already on-site with the panel open. A new 200A panel ensures you have the capacity for one or two EV chargers plus future loads like air conditioning or a hot tub. We include the EV charger circuit in the same permit, so there is no additional permit cost.

200A is the current standard for Edmonton residential homes and is what Voltura recommends for almost all upgrades. A 200A service gives you ample capacity for EV chargers, central air conditioning, electric ranges, hot tubs, and any future additions. 100A panels are generally only appropriate for small homes or suites with minimal electrical load. We perform a load calculation as part of every quote to confirm the right service size for your property.
