Regina’s Authority in 100 Amp to 200 Amp Service Upgrades.
Moving your home from 1950s infrastructure to 2026 technology. Whether you're satisfying an insurance requirement or building your dream kitchen, we provide the power you need.
In Regina, your electrical panel doesn't care about “brand” as much as it cares about amperage and age. If you're running a 60A or 70A service, your home insurance policy is at risk. We specialize in upgrading these aging systems to modern 100A or 200A standards, keeping your coverage active and your home safe.
Before you add an EV charger, new garage, hot tub, or AC, we perform a CEC-based load calculation. We work directly with TSASK to ensure your home has the legally required capacity to handle your lifestyle without risking a fire or a "refusal to energize" from the utility.
panel & service faqs (regina edition)
We specialize in the mid-century electrical systems found throughout Albert Park, Normanview, Argyle Park, and Glencairn. We know the exact wiring methods used in these Regina builds and how to make them safe for modern electronics.
-
Tripping breakers, flickering lights, or a service under 100A.
-
100A is the minimum; 200A is the standard for modern Regina living.
-
It’s the safety control center for every wire in your home.
-
Panel is the box inside. Service is the power from the street. Usually, we do both
-
If a part is broken in an old panel, it's a sign the whole system is reaching its limit. We recommend replacement over “patching” outdated tech
-
Usually, yes.
An EV charger adds more demand than a whole kitchen.
8-10 hours to total peace of mind
A panel change isn't a 2 hour job if it's done right. We tell our clients to expect an 8–10 hour power outage. We start early, coordinate with SaskPower, and have your lights back on before dinner.
-
We run a load calculation to find out exactly how much “room” you have left.
-
Older panels often run out of physical space for new breakers.
-
If you are adding anything like a hot tub, an EV charger or a basement suite, TSASK will want to ensure you have enough power available without burning out your panel.
-
Age and loose connections are the real risks, not just the brand.
-
Burning smells, buzzing, or breakers that won't reset.
-
Frequent tripping and potential damage to your appliances.
-
Yes. Many now flag 60A/70A services as “uninsurable”.

THE SERVICE VS. THE PANEL
We get a lot of questions about where the work actually happens. Here’s the breakdown:
THE SERVICE
This is the line from the SaskPower tie point to your meter.
THE METER
Most older Regina meters aren't up to today’s code. We typically replace these during an upgrade to ensure everything is legal and safe.
THE PANEL
This is the box inside your home with the breakers that distribute power.
