Electrical Panel Upgrades in Louisville and Southern Indiana

More Power. Better Safety. Built for Today’s Needs.

If your lights dim when the AC kicks on or your breakers trip more than they should, it may be time for a panel upgrade. Older panels can’t always keep up with modern power demands, and overloaded systems put your safety at risk.

At Corrigan Electric, we’ve been helping homeowners improve and protect their electrical systems since 1995. Whether you’re adding a hot tub, planning a remodel, or just tired of losing power to key rooms, we’ll upgrade your panel safely, efficiently, and to current code.

We use licensed electricians on every job and take the time to explain exactly what your home needs. No upselling. No shortcuts.

When to Upgrade Your Panel

Corrigan can inspect and upgrade your panel when you experience:

  • Frequent breaker trips or blown fuses
     A sign your system is overloaded

  • Lights that flicker, dim, or buzz
     Especially when large appliances start

  • New appliances or home improvements
     HVAC systems, hot tubs, EV chargers, and more

  • Outdated fuse boxes or 100-amp panels
     Especially in homes built before the 1980s

  • Insurance or inspection requirements
     Bringing your system up to code

  • Burning smells or discolored breakers
     A red flag that should be addressed immediately

FAQ’s

  • If your breakers trip often, your lights flicker or dim when appliances start, your panel is more than 30 years old, or you still have a fuse box, it's worth having your panel evaluated. Corrigan Electric's licensed electricians check your home's electrical demand and tell you honestly whether an upgrade is needed.

  • Yes. Corrigan Electric often upgrades panels for EV chargers, hot tubs, HVAC systems, and other new appliances. A licensed electrician runs the numbers on your home's current load, tells you whether your existing panel can handle it, and recommends an upgrade only if you truly need one.

  • Yes. Corrigan Electric pulls the permit and requests the inspection for every panel upgrade, in Kentucky and Southern Indiana. Our licensed electricians complete the work to current code, and we coordinate so you don't have to.

  • It depends on what your home runs. Many older homes in Louisville and Southern Indiana have 100-amp panels, which can struggle with central air, electric heat, an EV charger, or a hot tub. Many newer homes have 200-amp service. A Corrigan Electric licensed electrician can calculate your home's load and tell you if 100 amps is enough.

  • Most residential panel upgrades are completed in one day, with power off for about 3 to 5 hours while the new panel is installed. Corrigan Electric gives you the schedule upfront and coordinates any utility work, so you know exactly when your power will be off and when it will be back on.

  • Yes. Panel upgrades qualify for Corrigan Electric financing, which is available on projects of $1,000 or more. A licensed electrician assesses your home and gives you an estimate, and our office walks you through your financing options before work begins. Call 502-267-4600 to get started.
