100 AMP PANEL REPLACEMENT STEP BY STEP

Project Overview

This electrical panel replacement in Calgary involved upgrading an outdated 100 amp panel that had reached the end of its safe lifespan. The original panel was overcrowded and had multiple code violations, including double-tapped breakers. With upcoming renovations planned, the homeowner needed a modern panel with enough capacity for additional circuits.

Installation Details

Old Panel: Original 100 amp panel, over 20 years old
New Panel: 100 amp modern electrical panel with circuit breakers
Panel Board: Installed a new, larger mounting board for stability and additional data wiring
Panel Relocation: Shifted slightly to leave room for future low voltage wiring
Safety Improvements: Eliminated double-tapped circuits and organized wiring

Site Conditions and Challenges

The original panel had been altered over the years with add-ons, leaving the wiring messy and unsafe. A lot of data wiring also need to be accounted for in this project. Some conduit to the garage also had to be adjusted to fit the new setup.

Electrical Work Completed

Our team removed the old panel and installed the new 100 amp panel on a freshly mounted oversized board. All wiring was dressed neatly into the new panel, and the conduit to the garage was trimmed for a clean fit. The upgrade brought the installation up to current Canadian Electrical Code standards and provided additional room for the homeowner’s renovation plans.

Customer Experience

The homeowner gained a safer, more reliable electrical system and the confidence that their planned renovations could proceed without electrical limitations. The finished panel was neat, code-compliant, and ready for decades of service.
