Why Choose Cross Texas Electric

Safety First

Old or undersized panels are a leading cause of electrical fires. Upgrading eliminates the risk of overloaded and failing breakers.

Handle Modern Loads

EV chargers, HVAC systems, and smart home tech need capacity. A 200A panel delivers it reliably.

Increase Home Value

Updated panels are a selling point. Buyers and inspectors look for them — and older panels can affect insurance.

Permitted & Inspected

We pull permits, coordinate the utility disconnect, and ensure your upgrade passes inspection on the first try.

What We Include

  • Evaluation of current panel age, capacity, and condition
  • Upgrade from 100A to 200A or 400A service
  • Main breaker panel replacement (Square D, Eaton, Siemens)
  • Sub-panel installation for garages, shops, and additions
  • GFCI and AFCI breaker installation per code
  • Load calculation for proper sizing
  • Permit filing and final inspection coordination
  • Utility company coordination for service disconnect

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a panel upgrade take?
Most residential panel upgrades take 4–8 hours. We coordinate with your utility for the service disconnect and restore power the same day in almost all cases.
Do I need a permit for a panel upgrade in Kyle, TX?
Yes. Panel upgrades require a permit and inspection. We pull the permit on your behalf and coordinate the final inspection.
When should I upgrade my panel?
Consider an upgrade if your panel is 25+ years old, if you're frequently tripping breakers, if you're adding an EV charger or major appliance, or if you're buying an older home.
Can I add an EV charger without a panel upgrade?
Possibly. A Level 2 charger needs a dedicated 50A circuit. If your 100A panel is already near capacity, a 200A upgrade is usually the right move first.
