|---|---|---|
| Panel upgrade (e.g. 100A to 200A) | Yes | Replacing or upsizing the main electrical panel that distributes power throughout your home. |

About Our Gambrills Services
Your Trusted Gambrills Electrical Contractor
Gambrills is an unincorporated community in central Anne Arundel County, Maryland, just east of Crofton along the MD-3 and MD-32 corridor. It grew from a rural railroad and farming crossroads into a mix of large-lot older properties and a wave of late-1990s through 2010s subdivisions such as Waugh Chapel, Saddle Ridge, and Four Seasons. That blend gives Gambrills two distinct panel-upgrade profiles: established homes on bigger, semi-rural lots, and newer developments whose owners are now adding EV chargers, heat pumps, and home-office loads the original builder service never anticipated.
On the newer Waugh Chapel and Four Seasons housing stock, the panel-upgrade driver is usually load growth rather than age — a builder-grade 150-amp or 200-amp service that is already near capacity once a Level-2 EV charger, a heat-pump conversion, a hot tub, and a finished basement are added. AJ Long Electric provides documented load calculations for these homes so an owner can see exactly how the new loads fit, and upgrades the service or adds a properly sized sub-panel where the existing equipment can't carry it. On the older, larger-lot Gambrills properties, the work skews toward 100-amp service upgrades, long underground service runs across deeper lots, and grounding-electrode-system corrections.
Gambrills sits in Baltimore Gas and Electric (BGE) territory — not the Pepco grid that serves the Prince George's County communities to the west — so every service upgrade includes coordinating the BGE meter pull and reconnection. The MD-3/MD-32 corridor also takes summer thunderstorm and tropical-remnant outages, and on the larger semi-rural lots a power loss can mean well pumps and septic systems go down, so a substantial share of Gambrills panel upgrades are paired with a transfer switch or generator-inlet hookup for backup. AJ Long Electric installs the transfer switches, inlet boxes, and battery backup; we do not sell generators.
Panel-upgrade permits in Gambrills go through the Anne Arundel County Department of Inspections and Permits, with a permit pull, inspection, and final approval required for any service change, new circuit, or EV charger. We manage the permit, the inspection scheduling, and the BGE coordination end to end, with clear flat-rate pricing for a 200-amp service upgrade, an EV-charger circuit, or a backup-power hookup.
