200 Amp Electric in Kensington

Electrical Work Built for Kensington's Older Hillside Homes

Most Kensington homes were built in the 1940s or earlier, so their wiring often predates today's load demands. Older panels and two-wire circuits can struggle when you add an EV charger, a sauna, or a hot tub. A main panel upgrade or new dedicated circuit usually solves that.

Many properties sit on steep, uneven lots with long runs from the utility meter to the house. Subpanel installation for detached studios, garages, and workshops takes careful routing on sloped ground. Our team plans each run around that terrain.

Kensington sits in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, so the condition of your wiring matters more here. Our emergency electrical repair and electrical troubleshooting services help identify faults before they become hazards.
