Increase power capacity and protect your property with a modern, code-compliant electrical panel.
If your lights flicker, breakers trip often, or your panel is outdated, it may be time for a panel upgrade or full changeout. At High Level Electric, we help homeowners and businesses in Sacramento improve safety, add electrical capacity, and bring their systems up to current code. A modern electrical panel gives your property the power it needs for today’s appliances, HVAC systems, kitchen upgrades, home offices, workshops, EV chargers, and more.
Your electrical panel is the main hub of your electrical system. It takes power from the utility and sends it safely to the circuits throughout your home or building. When a panel is old, damaged, undersized, or built with obsolete components, it can create real safety risks and daily power problems. In many cases, older panels were never designed for the electrical demands we see today. That is why a service panel upgrade is often one of the most important electrical improvements you can make.
We often recommend a panel inspection when customers notice warning signs like these:
In these situations, a breaker panel replacement or electrical service upgrade can improve performance, reduce risk, and help prevent future problems.
We handle the full process from start to finish. Our goal is to make the project simple and stress-free while keeping the work safe, clean, and code-compliant.
Whether you need a 100-amp to 200-amp panel upgrade, a full meter-main replacement, or a modern smart electrical panel, we will explain the options clearly and recommend what fits your property and goals.
A new panel does more than replace old equipment. It can improve how your entire electrical system works.
For many homes in Sacramento, especially older properties, an electrical panel changeout is one of the smartest ways to prepare for modern living.
We also install smart panels for customers who want more visibility and control over their electrical use. A smart panel can help you monitor circuits, manage energy loads, and plan for things like EV charging, battery backup, and home energy upgrades. If you are interested in a more advanced setup, we can walk you through the pros and help you decide if a smart panel is the right fit.
We believe customers should know exactly what to expect. Our process is straightforward:
We accept credit and debit cards with tap to pay, Apple Pay, checks, cash, Zelle, Venmo, Klarna financing, and in-house financing options.

Common questions we hear from Sacramento homeowners and property owners about electrical panel upgrades, changeouts, permitting, pricing, and what to expect when you hire High Level Electric.

We start with a free on-site assessment and give you an honest recommendation based on your home’s power needs, safety, and code requirements.
A panel changeout usually means replacing an old or unsafe electrical panel with a new one in the same location.

"I highly recommend High Level Electric and Damell for any electrical work. Damell has completed all of the electrical work on my home, and I have always been impressed with how fair, professional, and reliable he is. He works quickly, does quality work, and is always willing to fix any issues that come up. During my recent kitchen remodel, Damell was able to quickly install the electrical work needed so I could continue using my kitchen and keep the project moving without unnecessary delays. He has consistently gone above and beyond to make sure the job is done right. If you’re looking for an honest, professional, and dependable electrician, I highly recommend High Level Electric!"
"Damell was able to come to my property within an hour. It was a small matter that just required fiddling a bit with the breaker box, that he solved in a few minutes. He took his time explaining the situation and the cause, educating me on the matter so I would know what to look out for next time. Damell is an honest and courteous professional that I would highly recommend."
"Wonderful company, Damell came out to give us a quote and he was able to do the service the same day for such a fair price. Great work and great people!"
"High Level Electric responded to an urgent call to help us and a contractor determine if some old knob and tube wiring in our 100 yr old house was live. They identified which circuits were live and which weren’t. We needed a plan to replace the live circuits in order to continue with a construction project. They identified all the outlets, light, and appliances powered by the old wiring, and developed a clear plan to update it all. They were here for us when we urgently needed help. Damell, their leader, projected professional confidence and dealt with us in a respectful and kind manner."
"It’s always a pleasure working with Damell. He’s a real pro and he can do anything! I highly recommend High Level Electric"
"Nice service nice guy very good deal thanks damell"
"I would give High Level Electric the highest rating possible: knowledge, professionalism, thorough detail, communication, timeliness, and many other character and business integrity traits that are so lacking in the trades today. He is very personal, and takes time to go over options available after inspecting your needs, answering your questions and making sure you understand in layman's terms. He did difficult rewiring in my 1965 cottage of both walls and ceiling, installing new outlets, repairing old outlets and light sockets in my rear and rear porch, bathroom, and kitchen, and installed ceiling lights in my living room and bedroom. Very efficient. Night and day difference! Reasonable price. Call Dammel and crew! Excellence is certainly his trademark. Richard O. Citrus Heights"
"I've used Damell and HLE for electrical work in both of our homes, and I can't recommend them enough. Damell is timely, personable, and incredibly attentive. Having previously witnessed the trauma of a house fire, he truly understood our concerns and handled everything with exceptional care. In our older home, he installed several outlets in key areas to safely support electric bidets, the washing machine, and a wall-mounted TV. He also assessed all of our existing outlets, replacing those that were outdated or unsafe. I really appreciated how transparent he was. He clearly explained what needed to be addressed right away versus what could wait. There was never any pressure or upselling, just honest guidance to help us make the best decisions for our home. When we moved into our newer home, we didn't hesitate to call him again. This time, he installed an outlet in the garage so we could safely run a second refrigerator. Damell's professionalism, integrity, and quality of work have earned our complete trust. We'll definitely continue to use HLE for all of our electrical needs."
"Damell came out to help us with what seemed like a simple light switch box move but he then discovered the original wiring was improper and it was causing intermittent malfunction at the switch. I appreciated his expertise and his calm and patient mannerisms in troubleshooting the issue. I highly recommend High Level Electric!"
"If you need an honest electrician this is your company. They don’t upsell you with stuff you don’t need."
"We had an outdated panel at our home and we called High level electric to help us. They were very prompt and very professional we felt taken care of from start to finish no hassle no late arrival everything went perfect.

Highly recommend!!!"
"High Level Electric did an excellent job. Damel was professional, on time, and the quality of work was top-notch. Highly recommend!"
"I needed an electrician to come out and uninstall some equipment before moving out of my rental. Damell answered right away and confirmed he would be able to do it for me, even with short notice. I appreciated his professionalism, and his willingness to come back out if my landlord requested any additional work be done. I definitely recommend High Level Electric!"
"He did all my electrical work took out all the nob and tube and put Romex in excellent job on time cleaned up after himself very professional"
"I had an amazing experience with Damell! Our AC kept tripping the breaker, and he came out right away to troubleshoot the issue. He was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain what was going on in a way we could understand. He worked efficiently, got everything running smoothly, and left everything neat and tidy. It's rare to find someone so reliable and friendly! Highly recommend him for any HVAC or electrical troubleshooting."
"Damell fixed our AC and he was great! I highly recommend his business!"
"He is incredibly professional, shows up on time, communicates clearly, and takes pride in his work. You can tell right away that he’s knowledgeable and truly cares about doing the job right the first time. What stood out most to me was how trustworthy and honest he is—no upselling, no cutting corners, just straightforward and high-quality work. He took the time to explain everything in a way that was easy to understand and made sure I felt confident that I was making the right decision. I’ll definitely be using him again for any future projects!"
"If I could give High Level Electric beyond 5 stars, I would most definitely do so. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY! Damell has been our electrician for 6yrs ano counting and the work is immaculate. The work is very clean, very professionally executed. He's very knowledgeable, respectful towards his clients and their space and will walk you through the process. Even offers multiple solutions depending on what your needs are. He's changed out outlets, installed security cameras throughout my entire home, installed recessed lighting in my living room and provided my main panel with surge protection without any problems. Very reasonably priced and they're willing to work with you as well. I've never had an issue with this company. If you want safe and reliable work High Level Electric is THAT company!"
"We had ongoing electrical issues at our home such as flickering lights, breakers constantly tripping, and lights dimming every time we used appliances like the microwave or air fryer. We called High Level Electric, and Damell quickly diagnosed the problem. They found that multiple circuits were improperly tied together and needed to be separated to properly distribute the electrical load. During their inspection of our main panel, they also discovered corroded aluminum wiring that was affecting performance and safety. We decided to move forward with a full 200 amp panel upgrade, along with circuit separation and installation of a new dedicated electrical oven circuit. High Level Electric handled everything from permits to city inspections and utility coordination, and even got our power restored the same day. The new panel includes FireGuard (AFCI) breakers, and when a few issues came up, they took the time to troubleshoot and fix everything at no additional cost, which really showed their integrity and professionalism. They also had to open up part of the wall, but patched it cleanly and left everything looking great. Now our lights no longer flicker or dim, even when running multiple appliances, and we have plenty of space in our upgraded panel for future additions. If you’re looking for a reliable electrician for a panel upgrade, troubleshooting, or home electrical work, I definitely recommend High Level Electric. We will for sure be calling them back for our upcoming ADU project."
"Damell is an outstanding electrician! Honest and skilled as they come. He gets to the root of your electrical issues and is attentive to your needs throughout the whole process. Can’t recommend him enough!"
"I had TVs mounted by this business. They were quick, efficient and reliable. I had no clue about mounting anything so I had them come and help. They were very knowledgeable about the process, electrical wiring and were very quick. As a bonus they also mounted my PS5 and accessories. If you’re looking for anything electrical don’t hesitate to give them a call. They will help you with any and everything you need."
"Best electrician out here!! I highly recommend high level electric for all your electrical needs! If you’re looking for somebody who is knowledgeable and trustworthy give them a call! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
