Spark Bright Electric installs and upgrades electrical service panels so Bay Area homes and businesses can support EV chargers, backup power, and modern loads. Work is performed under CA License #1119635 (C10 — Electrical), with permit coordination and a clear path from inspection of the existing service to a labeled, code-compliant panel.
Service Categories
100-amp service
Replacement of aging 100-amp panels where the existing service still matches the home's load — with new breakers, labeling, and a clean, inspectable finish.
200-amp service
The most common Bay Area upgrade when adding EV charging, kitchen loads, or accessory dwelling electrical. Includes panel, grounding, and utility coordination as required.
400-amp and larger services
Higher-capacity services for larger homes, multi-unit properties, and commercial spaces that need more than a standard 200-amp panel.
Our Process
Assess
We inspect the existing panel, grounding, and load so the upgrade matches how the property is actually used.
Plan
We size the service, map circuits, and outline permit and utility steps before any demolition.
Permit
We pull electrical permits and coordinate utility disconnect/reconnect when the service change requires it.
Install
The new panel is installed, labeled, inspected, and left ready for the loads you asked us to support.
