Licensed electrical contractor serving North Texas
Residential electrical service
Koryente installs electrical service upgrades for North Texas homeowners who have outgrown a 60-amp, 100-amp, or aging electrical service and need modern 150-amp or 200-amp capacity. The project covers the meter, service conductors, grounding, and utility coordination, not just a new panel. It fits homes adding EV charging, electric HVAC, or several new high-demand loads at once.
Our service includes
Koryente calculates present and realistically planned demand so the new service is sized to the property, not defaulted to 200 amps.
A new meter socket, service conductors, and a rated main disconnect are installed to match the approved capacity.
Grounding electrodes, bonding jumpers, and panel connections are brought up to current code as part of the project.
We confirm the utility's disconnect and reconnect process, pull the permit, and schedule inspection before work starts.
EV charging, electric HVAC, or a generator get planned into the new capacity now, not left for later.
Electrical Service Upgrades project experience

Koryente relocated and replaced the phase converters that power a large Melissa, Texas home's commercial-grade HVAC system, installing Phase Perfect PT020 digital phase converters and working with Airview Air Conditioning to start up and commission the AC unit.

Increasing a home's electrical service involves more than a bigger panel. Meter equipment, service conductors, grounding, available utility supply, and inspection requirements all affect the scope, and skipping any of them turns a planned upgrade into a change order.
The correct target amperage is based on the home and its planned loads, not a default number, so EV charging, electric HVAC, and equipment planned for the next several years should be considered together up front. That coordination matters most on a project that touches the utility, the inspector, and the homeowner's schedule all at once.
What to expect
Load and site review
Koryente reviews the panel, service size, meter location, and grounding, and discusses the loads driving the upgrade.
Load calculation and equipment plan
We calculate demand to the target amperage and specify the meter, conductors, disconnect, and panel to match it.
Utility and permit coordination
Koryente confirms available capacity with the utility, then pulls the permit before work begins.
Installation and utility connection
New service equipment goes in during a scheduled utility disconnect and reconnect, kept as short as possible.
Inspection and closeout
The finished work is tested, the circuit directory is labeled, and final inspection is scheduled.
Serving North Texas
Older housing stock in towns like Denison and Whitewright carries electrical stock from several wiring eras, and a service adequate decades ago often can't support a modern kitchen, a heat pump, and EV charging at once. Collin County's growth corridors run the opposite direction: a newer home in Anna or Melissa can reach its panel's rated capacity fast once a family finishes a garage or converts to electric HVAC.
Properties on acreage near Gunter, Blue Ridge, and Westminster add another layer, since a detached shop or barn often needs its own feeder from an upgraded service. Whether that work is permitted through a city building department or the county depends on the property's location, and Koryente confirms the correct authority first.
Common questions
A service upgrade increases the total capacity coming into the home from the utility, typically moving a 60- or 100-amp service to 150 or 200 amps. It involves the meter, conductors, and grounding, not just the panel, which is why it's a larger project than a replacement.
The project needs a new meter socket and service conductors rated for 200 amps, an updated main disconnect and panel, and a grounding system brought to current code. It also requires utility coordination for the new connection, plus a permit with a final inspection before energization.
Usually yes. The upgrade replaces the meter, service conductors, main disconnect, panel, and grounding equipment, while existing branch-circuit wiring inside the walls typically stays as-is. A load calculation can occasionally turn up an unrelated wiring issue worth addressing at the same time.
The real cost drivers are the amperage jump, whether the service is overhead or underground, how far the meter needs to move, the utility's own connection requirements, site access, and permit and inspection fees. Koryente reviews these factors on site before providing a written estimate.
Common warning signs are breakers that trip when several appliances or the HVAC system run together, a 60- or 100-amp panel with no open spaces left for new circuits, and heat discoloration or corrosion at the meter base or main breaker. Planning an EV charger, an electric HVAC conversion, or a home addition is also a reason to have the existing service evaluated before the new load is added.
