A panel project starts with what you have today and what you want to power next. Black Ridge Electric evaluates the existing electrical system, planned loads, and project requirements before recommending equipment or service size.
Standard panel or smart panel?
Standard panel upgrades
A straightforward starting point when your priority is panel replacement, circuit space, or an electrical upgrade that supports the proposed scope. We assess the existing service and future equipment needs.
Smart panel planning
For projects where energy visibility or load-control features matter, we can discuss smart-panel options and evaluate the specific equipment. Monitoring, controls, connectivity, and backup integration depend on the model and system design.
Plan for what comes next
- Home EV charging and load-management needs.
- Hot tubs, saunas, and other new electrical equipment.
- Backup power or energy-storage integration.
- Remodeling, additional circuits, and changing property needs.
Panel replacement and service capacity are separate questions.
A new panel does not by itself establish the right service size for your property. We evaluate planned loads and utility requirements before recommending a 200–400A service project or another approach. Smart features do not replace that assessment.
Panel and service work, in the field.



What to include in your request
- Property: project location and whether you own the property or have authorization.
- Your goal: replace an existing panel, add capacity, explore smart features, or plan for new equipment.
- Existing system: panel age and service size if known. It is fine to leave technical details unanswered.
- Future loads: EV charger, backup system, hot tub, sauna, or other planned additions.
- Timing: your project schedule and any related remodeling or equipment delivery.
Do not remove panel covers or touch wiring to collect information.
What happens next
We review your request, coordinate an assessment, and use the property findings to define the proposed scope and estimate. Equipment selection, permits, utility coordination, and inspections are addressed as applicable to the project.
Master-electrician experience
Owner Gil Villegas brings approximately 20 years of electrical experience, from residential projects through utility-scale systems, to planning the details that matter at your property.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a smart panel?
That depends on your goals. We start with the electrical work you need, then consider whether the features of a particular smart panel fit your project.
Can you quote the project from the request alone?
The request starts the conversation. Existing conditions and project requirements must be evaluated before the scope and estimate are established.
Does submitting the form book an appointment?
No. Assessment requests are reviewed before an appointment is confirmed.
