What Is an Electrical Subpanel?
An electrical subpanel is an extension of the electrical services from the main electrical panel. The subpanel receives a current from the main panel and redistributes the current across multiple new circuits. You can install a subpanel for high-demand portions of your home that would occupy more than one circuit.
A subpanel can deliver power to your garage, home theater, workshop, or home office. Power-intensive devices in these spaces can connect to separate circuits on the subpanel, improving your electrical system's safety and performance.
When to Add a Subpanel
Mister Sparky can help you determine if a subpanel is right for your home. We install subpanels for these reasons:
Powering Your Home More Efficiently
Subpanels are useful when you need a large amount of energy — especially in the basement, garage, or other workshops. These spaces draw electricity for powerful equipment and appliances, such as televisions, computers, power tools, and charging stations. You can add a subpanel to improve efficiency and reliability in high-demand spaces.
Adding an electrical subpanel is also a good alternative to getting a larger electrical panel. Rather than adding more electrical power, the subpanel redistributes electricity from an existing circuit. This form of electrical distribution can be more efficient and easier to manage.
Accommodating New Devices
Many families install an electrical subpanel when they are adding a new appliance. The panel may not have space or capacity for additional high-demand appliances, such as yard equipment, a hot tub, or other large devices. Adding a subpanel can supplement the main panel when there is an increased power demand. If you need to add a new circuit to an existing electrical panel, but you don’t have any more space, you may need to add an electrical subpanel.
Whether improving the supply to existing devices or adding new appliances, subpanels provide more reliable electrical distribution. Power-intensive devices often require independent circuits. Accommodating numerous powerful devices with the main panel can be challenging when these devices are far from it or if there are few remaining circuits. It is easier and safer to deliver electricity from one main panel circuit to the subpanel.
The subpanel can redistribute power through multiple independent circuits with separate subpanel breakers. Now, the power supply is more precise and reliable. Your garage's power outlets, lights, and door opener can use independent circuits — tripping one will not impact the other.

Types of Electrical Subpanels
Electrical subpanels, also known as distribution panels or load centers, are secondary panels that receive power from the main electrical service panel and distribute it to various circuits within a building.
