Upgrade Your Panel For Safety and Capacity

Is your home’s electrical system struggling to keep up with modern demands? Most panels were sized for a household that ran far fewer things at once. There was no EV charger, no heat pump, no home office running all day. Frain Electric handles electrical panel upgrades and replacements for homeowners in Millville and the surrounding communities, so your system can carry what you actually use today and whatever you add next.

Save $100 on panel upgrades of 200A and above.

What our panel services cover

Not every panel needs replacing. Sometimes it’s a capacity increase, sometimes a straight swap, and occasionally the panel is fine and the problem is elsewhere. We assess before recommending.

Complete panel replacements

Full replacement where the existing panel is unsafe, obsolete or at capacity.

Capacity upgrades

Increasing your service to carry higher electrical loads.

Outdated fuse box conversions

Replacing fuse boxes with a modern breaker panel.

Circuit breaker installations

Adding or replacing breakers, including AFCI and GFCI protection.

Smart panel integration

We're certified to install Span smart panels.

Safety inspections and upgrades

Assessing an existing panel and correcting what's wrong with it.

Signs You Might Need a Panel Upgrade

Recognizing when your panel needs attention is crucial for a safe and efficient home. Panels rarely fail suddenly. They show warning signs for months or years first, and most people learn to live with them.

If you’re seeing any of these, it’s worth an assessment:

If your panel is warm to the touch or you smell burning near it, cut power and call us immediately.

Electrical panel replacement

An electrical panel replacement is the right call when the existing panel can’t be worked with safely: a fuse box, a panel that’s corroded or damaged, or one with no room left for additional circuits. A replacement means a new panel, new breakers and reconnecting every circuit in the property. It’s a bigger job than adding capacity, but it resets the system for the next few decades rather than buying a few more years.

We’ll tell you honestly which of the two your situation calls for.

Electrical Panel Repair

Not every problem means a new panel. Loose connections, a failed breaker, a corroded bus bar or a damaged cover can often be repaired on the existing panel. We diagnose the fault first and tell you honestly whether a repair will hold or whether the panel has reached the end of its life.

Why panel upgrades matter

Upgrading your panel is more than a home improvement project. It’s the part of your electrical system everything else depends on.
An undersized or failing panel doesn’t just limit what you can run. It’s a genuine fire risk, and it’s one of the first things a home inspector or insurer flags.

What Homeowners Say About Our Panel Upgrades

Tim Klein

Had emergency panel on a Wednesday night at 11:00 pm. Contacted Frain electric. Brendan called me right away. He came next day and explained what was happening and gave me an estimate to replace panel and all breakers. He was very thorough in his explanation. Within 2 hours Adam came and replaced everything in about 4 hours. Adam did a fantastic job and his work was very clean is very nice person. He cleaned up the job site like a real professional. Brendan responded to all my texts and calls in a timely manner and answered all my questions about permits and inspections. I will hire Frain electric in the future. I would recommend them in a heart beat. Glad I found Frain electric in the middle of the next. They are a courteous and friendly and knowledgeable team. Tim Klein

We recently hired Frain Electric to upgrade our electrical service from 100 to 200 amps and run all the wiring for a new bathroom addition. They did an outstanding job from start to finish. The crew was professional, respectful, and incredibly efficient. They worked cleanly, kept the job site neat every day, and finished the work faster than expected without cutting any corners. Everything was done to code, and they even took the time to explain the process and answer all of our questions. Thanks to their excellent work, we now have plenty of power for our growing home and a properly wired bathroom ready for the rest of the build. If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality electrician, Frain Electric is the way to go. We’ll definitely be calling them again for future projects.

Great experience from a estimate to final job. Great work Frain Electric. Brendan and Adam fixed all the issues and upgraded main panel to 200amp service, generator outlet and new service outside. 👍💪 Recommend 100%

Samuel Selva-Rodriguez

I wanted to add a sub-panel because we needed an EV charger added and some extra outlets in our basement and our panel was full. I saw Brendan's truck at a nearby house doing work and gave him a call. He immediately answered, set up time for a quote the next day, and we had all the work done within a week. He noticed that certain things weren't to code and the panel was aging. Him and his team were able to replace the panel, negating the need for a sub panel, and save us headaches for the next couple of decades. His guys were on time both days they were out and everything was done exactly how I needed it. Fantastic work and we're definitely going to be using him for any extra electrical work we need in the future.

Fast response, Stellar customer service. Upgraded us to a 200 amp service and installed our whole building generator, also installed the whole house generator at my home. Just great service. Couldn’t ask for more.

Frain Electric rewired my whole house and made accommodations for 2 new HVAC systems to be installed. They were prompt to get us a new panel and rewire our whole property. They then took care and precision when pulling new wires to our outlets and switches, while minimizing the destruction of our walls. Brendan and team were amazing and appropriately priced. I can’t recommend Frain Electric enough!

David Boston

I had a major flood at my house that submerged my circuit panel and required 70% of my 17th Century house to be rewired and 2 new HVAC systems to be installed. Frain Electric was prompt to get us a new panel and some emergency power back on. They then took care and precision when pulling new wires to our outlets and switches, while minimizing the destruction of our walls. Thankfully we are back up and running. Brendan and team were amazing and appropriately priced. Some other quotes I received were 200% more expensive. I can’t recommend Frain Electric enough.
