Why Keithville homes need panel upgrades

A lot of Keithville's housing stock dates to the 1960s–80s and still runs on undersized 100-amp panels — often paired with a Federal Pacific Stab-Lok or Zinsco panel that's now a known fire risk. Adding a modern heat pump, EV charger, or on-demand water heater on top of that capacity is a recipe for nuisance trips at best, and a panel fire at worst.

We upgrade to 200A in a single day. The job includes a new main breaker, panel and bus, new meter base if needed, code-required whole-home surge protection (NEC 230.67), new ground rod, bonding to incoming water, and re-termination of every branch circuit. We pull the permit with Caddo Parish, coordinate the SWEPCO disconnect/reconnect, and meet the inspector on-site.
