Load assessment
We calculate current and planned loads to size the panel correctly.
Kaimana Electric · Panels
More capacity, done safely — so your home is ready for solar, EV charging, and how you live now.
Overview
An older or undersized panel quietly limits everything: it can’t support a new EV charger, a battery, or the loads a modern Maui home puts on it — and worn panels can be a safety risk. Kaimana Electric upgrades and replaces electrical panels and service so your home has the headroom it needs.
We start with a load calculation and a clear look at what you want to add now and later. Then we size and install the right panel — cleanly, to code, and coordinated with Hawaiian Electric where a service upgrade is involved.
What a panel upgrade includes
We calculate current and planned loads to size the panel correctly.
Old or unsafe panels swapped for modern, properly rated equipment.
Higher-amperage service coordinated with Hawaiian Electric where needed.
Capacity and breaker space planned for solar, storage, and charging.
Optional smart panels for circuit-level monitoring and control.
Permitted, inspected, and documented for safety and resale.
The difference
Room to add EV charging, solar, and modern loads without tripping.
Replace aging or hazardous panels with reliable, code-compliant gear.
A tidy, clearly labeled panel that is easy to understand and service.

Common questions
Sometimes. It depends on your panel’s age, amperage, and spare capacity. We run a load calculation and tell you honestly whether your existing panel can support the addition or whether an upgrade is the safer path.
Warning signs include frequent breaker trips, warm or discolored panels, a fuse box, or certain older panel brands known for issues. If you are unsure, we can assess it and give you a straight answer.
If you are increasing the size of your electrical service, yes — we coordinate the utility side with Hawaiian Electric and handle the permitting so the upgrade is done properly.
