Residential Electrical Service
Built For Electrical Panel Upgrade, Not Generic Service Calls
If your home still has a fuse box or a 100-amp panel, you're running modern electrical loads through outdated equipment. We replace panels, upgrade service to 200 amps or 400 amps, install sub-panels, and bring older OKC homes up to current code.
What We Handle
When You Need A Panel Upgrade
- Your home has a fuse box (any age) or a panel rated below 100A.
- Breakers trip repeatedly, even with normal use.
- You're adding a major load, EV charger, hot tub, central A/C, electric range, or whole-home generator.
- The panel is corroded, rusted, or feels warm to the touch.
- Your panel brand is on a known recall or insurance-flagged list (Federal Pacific, Zinsco, certain Challenger models).

Every home has different wiring, load demands, access, and code requirements. Spark Shark Electric keeps the visit focused on the actual problem, the available options, and the written scope before work begins.

A standard $59 dispatch fee applies to every service visit.

FAQ
Common Questions
How long does a panel upgrade take?
Most residential panel upgrades take a single day, including the OG&E disconnect/reconnect window. More complex jobs (panel relocation, service mast replacement, sub-panel adds) can extend to a second day.
Do I need to be home?
Yes, power to the home will be off for several hours during the upgrade. Plan for the day, and we'll coordinate the OG&E window to keep it as short as possible.
Do you pull the permit?
Yes. Every panel job we do gets a permit and a city inspection. That's part of our flat rate, you don't pay the permit fee separately.
Can you upgrade a Federal Pacific or Zinsco panel?
Yes, and we recommend it. Both brands have well-documented failure modes (breakers that don't trip when they should). Many home insurance carriers now require replacement.
