How much does it cost to upgrade electrical service to 200 amps?

Upgrading electrical service to 200 amps with Monkey Wrench typically starts at $7,500, and we’re currently offering $200 off panel upgrades. Final pricing is confirmed after an on-site inspection because it varies with your home’s electrical load and the scope of work needed.

Common factors that change price:

• Existing panel size/condition and available space
• Service entrance, meter, and grounding upgrades
• Required circuit additions or AFCI/GFCI breaker changes
• Add-ons like whole-home surge protection, generator readiness, or EV charging capacity

A frequent cost driver we see is when the utility service and grounding system must be brought up to current code. We regularly complete these upgrades for homeowners in Pacific Palisades and nearby areas. Schedule an assessment if lights dim under load, breakers trip often, or you’re adding high-demand equipment like HVAC or EV charging.
