Old Challenger Panel Replacement in the East Bay

Challenger panels are often insurance-flagged, grouped with Zinsco and Federal Pacific by insurance companies. Once they appear on an inspection report, carriers usually want them replaced before they'll renew or write a new policy. AC3 LLC handles Challenger replacements the same way we handle the others: permit, new SQ D HOMELINE panel and final inspection — from Hercules to Berkeley, with expedited service when your coverage is on the line. Call 510-224-5795.

Will my new indoor panel be 200 amps?

It depends on what feeds it now. Your indoor panel keeps the same amperage as its existing subfeed, so a 200 amp subfeed stays 200 amps and a 100 or 125 amp subfeed stays at that size. When we install a new outdoor meter/main, we often don't need to touch the indoor panel at all. If your subfeed is under 100 amps, we highly recommend upgrading to a new panel with new arc fault and ground fault breakers where applicable. Upgrading the subfeed to 200 amps is available for an additional price.
