Hawaii Island spreads power across long rural feeders, vog-exposed coastline and homes above 2,000 feet that were often owner-built. Corroded lugs and undersized services are the two things we find most.

What Captain Cook customers say

★★★★★

Old fuse box finally replaced. They walked me through why the old one was a problem rather than just telling me to be scared of it.

★★★★★

Level 2 charger in a detached carport, about eighty feet from the panel. Quoted the run honestly up front.

Electrical Panel Upgrade in Captain Cook: frequently asked questions

How do I know my Captain Cook panel needs upgrading?
Full breaker slots, double-tapped breakers, a fuse box, frequent tripping, a warm cover, scorch marks, or a plan to add an EV charger, AC or a range. Any one of those is a reason to look.
How long does a panel upgrade take in Captain Cook?
Most residential upgrades are a one day job, with power off for part of it. Utility coordination and inspection can add scheduling time, and we handle that for you.
What size service should I get in Captain Cook?
200 amp is standard for most homes now, especially with an EV or a heat pump in the plan. We run a load calculation rather than guessing.
Can you replace just the breaker box in Captain Cook?
Sometimes, if the service and meter are in good condition. If the service entrance cable is undersized or corroded, replacing only the box leaves the real bottleneck in place.
Do I need a permit for a panel upgrade in Captain Cook?
Service work is permitted and inspected. We take care of the paperwork and the inspection appointment as part of the job.
Will my power be off all day in Captain Cook?
Not usually all day. We plan the outage window with you in advance so you can move anything temperature sensitive first.
Do you work on older homes in Captain Cook?
Frequently. Older Captain Cook properties often have two prong outlets, cloth or knob and tube wiring, or a panel that ran out of room years ago. We prioritise what is unsafe first and give you a staged plan for the rest.
Do you charge extra for nights, weekends or holidays in Captain Cook?
After-hours work in Captain Cook is quoted at a flat price before we start, so you know the number before anyone drives out. There is no meter running while we diagnose.
