When a sub panel is the right choice
A sub panel does not add capacity to your service. It distributes the capacity you already have. That makes it ideal when the main panel has spare amperage but no open slots, or when a group of circuits is needed far from the main, such as in a detached garage. If the service itself is undersized, we will tell you, and a main panel upgrade in Pullman may need to come first.
