average price of new electrical panel
If a brand new panel is needed expect to pay double or triple that price, as much as $2,500 for 100 amps. If you are in need of a panel that can handle more than 100 amps the price goes up. If you wish to upgrade your existing electric breaker panel to 200 amps the cost is anywhere from $1,200-$3,000. Upgrading to a 400-amp panel, which is what most new homes are being constructed with, will range anywhere from $2000 all the way up to $4000.
