Replace outdated breaker boxes with modern, safe, high-efficiency panels. From FPE and Zinsco replacements to new installations, AMA powers what matters most.

Electrical Panel Upgrades

Your electrical panel is the heart of your home’s electrical system. It’s responsible for safely distributing electricity to every room, appliance, and outlet. As your home ages or your electrical demands increase — whether through renovations, new appliances, or technology upgrades — your panel must keep up. That’s where AMA Electrical comes in.

We offer comprehensive panel upgrade services designed to improve the safety, capacity, and efficiency of your home’s power system. An outdated panel isn’t just an inconvenience — it’s a potential hazard.

Recognizing the Danger: FPE & Zinsco Panels

Many older homes in Colorado were built with Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) or Zinsco panels — both now considered serious fire hazards. These panels have a notorious track record for failing to trip during an overload or short circuit, posing a critical risk of electrical fires. If your home still has one of these panels, replacement isn’t optional — it’s urgent. AMA Electrical provides safe removal and replacement of these outdated panels with modern, code-compliant alternatives.

Repair or Replace?

Sometimes your panel just needs attention — other times, it’s a time bomb. If you're unsure whether a repair or a full upgrade is needed, AMA will assess and educate. We’ll explain your panel's lifespan, capacity, and limitations clearly. We consider factors like breaker compatibility, future load, and safety to guide your decision.

Meeting Today’s Power Demands

From EV chargers to HVAC upgrades, modern homes pull more power than ever before. We design panels that accommodate today’s needs while planning for tomorrow — with capacity for solar, battery backup, and smart tech. We help future-proof your system without overspending on unnecessary upgrades.

Code Compliance & Inspections

Our team is fluent in Colorado and Jefferson County codes. Every panel upgrade is permitted, inspected, and compliant. Whether it’s bonding, grounding, AFCI/GFCI compliance, or main disconnects — we handle the entire process, so you don’t have to worry about red tags or failed inspections.

Efficiency & Energy Insight

Upgrading your panel can improve energy flow and unlock access to smart meters and utility rebates. Modern panels reduce resistance loss, improve breaker accuracy, and integrate cleanly with energy monitoring systems that help you save money long-term.
