  • A subpanel is a smaller electrical panel that connects to the main panel and distributes power to a specific area of your home or business. It is an intermediate point between the main panel and its circuits, and is useful in properties that have elevated electrical demands or for locations far from the main panel.

    You might need a subpanel if your main panel is full and you want to add new circuits. It can also simplify wiring for large spaces like additions, garages, or workshops, allowing you to group circuits by location or function.

    Subpanels enhance safety by preventing circuit overloads by distributing the electrical load more evenly, thus reducing strain on the main panel.

How do I Determine Whether I Need a Subpanel?

Determining if your property requires a subpanel installation begins with evaluating your existing and anticipated power demands. Consider these typical situations where a subpanel could provide the ideal solution:

You Have a Larger Home

Larger homes often need more circuits than a standard electrical panel can provide. Installing subpanels can help balance the electrical load, especially in multi-level homes with extensive lighting or high-powered appliances.

You’ve Added Additions to Your Home

When adding new living space like a bedroom, home office, or finished basement, it's essential to upgrade your electrical system so that it can power the increased demand. Installing a subpanel allows you to connect the circuits for the addition directly and keep everything organized and accessible.

You Have a Garage or Workshop Using a Lot of Power

If you have heavy-duty tools or machinery in your garage, your main panel may not handle the power demand. Installing a dedicated subpanel for garage wiring lets you operate multiple high-powered devices safely without tripping breakers. It also allows you to control circuits for the garage without going to the main panel inside your home.
