Electrical Panel Upgrade with Surge Protection – Naples, FL

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: ELECTRICAL PANEL UPGRADE WITH SURGE PROTECTION – NAPLES, FL

We recently completed a residential project in Naples, FL 34119, where the homeowner needed a full panel upgrade and enhanced protection against power surges. The old panel had become outdated and was no longer providing the reliability needed for today’s electrical demands.

• Removed the existing breaker panel, which was undersized and showing wear
• Installed a new 200-amp electrical service panel, up to current code
• Added a whole-home surge protection device directly at the panel to safeguard appliances and electronics
• Labeled all new breakers for easy identification and access
• Performed complete safety testing to verify grounding and bonding
• Coordinated power shutoff and re-energization with the utility provider
• Completed the project in one day to minimize homeowner downtime

The homeowner now has a modern, code-compliant electrical panel with surge protection built in. This not only increases household safety but also protects expensive electronics and appliances from damaging power spikes. The installation gives peace of mind knowing the electrical system is prepared for both daily use and Florida’s unpredictable weather.

How long does a panel replacement take?
Most residential panel upgrades can be completed in a single day, including removal, installation, and inspection.

Why add surge protection at the panel?
Whole-home surge protection stops harmful voltage spikes before they spread through the home’s circuits, protecting TVs, appliances, and sensitive electronics.

Do I need a permit for a panel upgrade?
Yes. Electrical panel replacements require permitting and inspection to ensure compliance with the latest electrical codes. CoHarbor Electric handles this for you.

Can I add more circuits later?
Absolutely. The upgraded panel provides room for expansion, making it easier to add circuits for future remodels, EV chargers, or pool equipment.

Is this service available in other areas besides Naples?
Yes, we also provide electrical panel upgrades in Fort Myers and surrounding Southwest Florida communities.
