Circuit Panel Upgrade or Heavy Up Additions
A heavy-up circuit is a type of electrical circuit that is designed to handle a higher electrical load than a standard electrical circuit. This is typically achieved by increasing the size of the conductors and equipment used in the circuit, such as the wires, switches, and breakers. Heavy-up circuits are used in home-based businesses or for home hobbyists where there is a need for a large amount of electrical power to support machinery, lighting, or other high-demand equipment. The term "heavy-up" refers to the process of upgrading an existing electrical circuit to handle a higher electrical load.
Circuit panels may need an upgrade because they're outdated, don't have enough circuits, or you've done an addition or added additional features to your home that require more circuits. Installing a pool or hot tub are just 2 examples of upgrades that might require an update to your circuit panel. We also install circuit panels for new construction of Additional Dwelling Units (ADUs) and other residential buildings.
Dedicated circuits
There are other reasons to have a dedicated circuit besides the electric car charger mentioned above. You may be installing a pool or hot tub that requires its own circuit for safety or code requirements. If you've noticed issues like a hot tub plug getting hot, it could be a sign that your current setup isn’t handling the load safely. .You may be running power down to your outbuildings, or adding air conditioning or an electric stove to your home where you had none previously. There are a variety of reasons you may need a dedicated circuit - our team of licensed electricians near you can help you make the need a reality!

Job Locations and Reviews
Came out today to give an estimate on installing a customer supplied EV charger that’ll be located in the garage area. The main electrical panel is located in the basement of the home.
This estimate will be for performing an extended die diagnostics on some mismanaged wiring done by a previous electrician, as well as to replace a three-way light switch that is no longer working properly
Provide estimate for panel upgrade as well as dedicated circuit for EV charger
This estimate will be for installing a PSP Vortexx surge with a lifetime warranty and $100,000 of combined protection to meet county safety standards. With this installation we will utilize a 50 amp breaker in the panel that is currently being unused. Additionally we will replace 6 15amp 120v breakers feeding Multiwire branch circuits with proper common trip handle circuit breakers
For this job, I came out to provide estimate options for customer request work being the installation of a new dedicated 20A 120V circuit with receptacle for a customer supplied microwave we will be installing in place of a hood fan. Additionally, the customer asked for an estimate for a ceiling fan installation bundled with and by itself to see the cost difference for installation with existing wiring and fan box. Lastly, upon looking in the panel, I observed (7) improperly wired multi wire branch circuits and no whole home surge protection. Customer receiving estimates from multiple companies to compare pricing.
Haas staff notified me of their intended arrival, and brought the correct light for replacement with them. They completed the job quickly and I am very satisfied with the result.
Ray installed a ceiling outlet and fan surprisingly quickly. With skill and persistence, he installed the wiring by going into a limited-space attic, thereby avoiding the need to make unsightly cuts into the room's wall and ceiling. He was careful to follow code and properly interconnect the new wiring to the house's 1969 aluminum wiring. He also installed a new 240-volt outlet in our garage, with a new cable from the main breaker box, maintaining care to minimize cuts into the drywall. He cleaned up thoroughly afterwards and explained all aspects of his service, including the need to install new circuit breakers for safety measures. His service was definitely over the top. Highly recommended.
Tyler is knowledgeable, and took no time at all to determine why my light wasn't coming on. 4 stars only because of the price.
Tray provided excellent service! He was professional and went over how he could accomplish my request to have ceiling lights replaced, a hanging utility light replaced and several light switches. He answered all my questions thoroughly and in a way I understood. He was helpful in problem solving one issue related to the installation of the utility light with a great outcome. The estimate he provided was clear and a reasonable price. The completed work looks great and I am very happy with the work Tray did today.
I'm in the process of moving out of my home and preparing it to be a rental. Dennis & Brenden arrived on time and were both extremely polite and friendly. I loved that I received a text (the same time they called with their ETA) with the name and photo of Dennis, so I felt comfortable letting them into my house. I went over the list of items I wanted to have completed, and they also walked through the house to do a sort of "rental inspection" with me to go over items that would normally need to be addressed when applying for a Howard County rental license. They replaced multiple outlets, fixed my 3 way switches that didn't want to work as 3 way switches, and also brought a few other items to my attention that were safety concerns. They didn't complete any of the work until we discussed it all and they provided me with a cost of the work. At the end, when going over the completed work, we were turning switches on and off, including the front porch, and at the moment one of the porch lights went out. They could have easily left and headed to their next job and let me deal with changing the bulb (which I said I would do), but instead, they removed the light fixture, replaced the bulb, cleaned the glass panels, and reinstalled it. They even provided a hotspot for me to use when they had to disconnect my wifi due to replacing the outlet it was plugged into. Talk about amazing service! I have a few other projects that will need to be done this summer, at this house and the new one, and I'm happy to know that Dennis and Brenden will be the crew that is sent out to do that work as well. I highly recommend Haas & Sons Electric!
Ian was awesome!
Ian and Tyler were on time, professional and went over the work plan with me to ensure I received the service I wanted. Clean up was excellent too. Definitely plan to have future work done by this team!
