1. Why SCE pays for this

SCE would rather pay for your panel upgrade today than deal with grid issues tomorrow. California is pushing EV adoption hard, and most older homes need a panel upgrade to handle the load. So SCE created the Charge Ready Home program to cover the cost for income-qualified households through approved contractors like us.

2. Who Qualifies

The program is for income-qualified SCE customers. Most single-family homes in specific zip codes and certain California Regions qualify. We confirm your eligibility on the call before scheduling anything.

3. What it costs you

For most qualifying homeowners, the $4200 credit covers the full panel upgrade. If your specific job exceeds that, we tell you the exact difference upfront. No surprises, ever

Questions about electrical work in your home?

Here are answers to the most common questions homeowners ask before booking A-Tech Electric.

Is this really free? How does A-Tech make money?

A-tech gets paid by SCE through the Charge Ready Home program. SCE wants more EV-ready homes in their service area, so they pay approved contractors like us to do the upgrades for income-qualified customers. We make our money from the program, not from you.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. A-Tech Electric is fully licensed and insured. Our electricians are trained on current electrical codes and safety standards, so you can feel confident that all work in your home is done correctly and compliantly.

How do I know A-Tech Electric is legit?

Fair question. We're a licensed California electrical contractor (License #996155) and you can verify us directly at the CSLB website (cslb.ca.gov). We're family-owned, based locally in the Inland Empire, and we've completed hundreds of panel upgrades across Riverside, San Bernardino, and Orange County. We're also an SCE-approved contractor, which means SCE vetted us before letting us into the program.

Do I have to own an EV to qualify?

No. The program is for homeowners who are getting their home ready for an EV charger, whether you already own one, you're planning to buy one, or you're just future-proofing your home. You don't need to prove EV ownership.

What if I don't qualify? Can I still get a panel upgrade?

Absolutely. We do panel upgrades for non-program customers all the time. If you don't qualify for the SCE credit, we'll give you an honest, transparent quote for the work and let you decide. No pressure, no hard sell.

How long does the whole process take?

From your first call to the finished upgrade, usually 2 to 4 weeks. The SCE approval takes about 5 to 10 business days. Once approved, we schedule the upgrade itself, which takes 4 to 8 hours on the day of installation.

Our promise to you

1-Year Workmanship Warranty on Every Panel Upgrade

If anything goes wrong with our work within 12 months of your panel upgrade, we come back and fix it — no questions asked, no extra charge. We also pull all permits and schedule the city inspection so your upgrade is fully code-compliant from day one.
