Electric Panel Education for Electrification Upgrades Now Available

February 6, 2026

When electrifying a home, it is important to understand the capacity of an electric panel and understand why optimization matters. A new hub of resources on switchison.org provides an overview of electric panel options and explains why it’s important to choose the right option for your electrification plans.

Safety always comes first. If you are not a licensed and qualified electrical professional, it is not safe to modify or work inside an electrical panel. A qualified professional should verify the design and installation. When in doubt, contact a professional to ensure that your system isn’t pushed beyond what it can safely support.

TECH Clean California with POWER Group and Build It Green created this web page so consumers can quickly reference a variety of load calculators—from quick estimates to more precise results—to estimate a home’s power needs, and featured training and webinars to educate contractors and homeowners about electrical systems. Of course, it is necessary to consult a licensed professional to calculate final electrical loads and avoid unnecessary upgrades during the electrification process, but these new resources will help educate customers and contractors before making electrification decisions.

Remember, safety first. Contact a professional to ensure that your system can safely support your project upgrades.
