Electrical Main Panel

The Electrical Main Panel (EMP) is a component of your home’s electrical system that provides connectivity to your electric utility, distribution of electricity to the different circuits in your home, and protection from short circuits or overload conditions. Your solar system needs to be connected to the EMP so that the energy generated can be supplied to your home or be exported to the electric grid.

EMPs are designed to handle a given amount of current and handle a fixed number and type of circuit breakers. So, depending on when your home was built and/or the type of EMP installed, your EMP may be outdated, or have limited current capacity, or may not have space for additional circuit breakers. If this is the case, the EMP will need to be upgraded prior to, or as part of your Solar System installation.

The Electric Main Panel Upgrade includes the EMP, labor and materials, required permits and inspections, and wall/stucco finishing.
