A subpanel — also called a secondary panel or breaker box — is a smaller electrical panel fed from your main panel that distributes power to a specific area of your home or property. Subpanels are the right solution when you need multiple new circuits in a location that’s far from your main panel, or when your main panel doesn’t have enough space for additional breakers. Miele Electric Power installs subpanels for garages, workshops, additions, pool houses, barns, and accessory dwelling units across Connecticut.

When Do You Need a Subpanel?

A subpanel is the right solution in several common situations. If you’re converting a garage to a workshop or studio and need 240-volt circuits for tools or equipment, running individual circuits from the main panel is inefficient and expensive. A subpanel in the garage gives you a local distribution point with room for future circuits. In-law suites, home offices, pool houses, and backyard workshops all benefit from a dedicated subpanel. It keeps your main panel from getting overcrowded, makes future electrical work in that area simpler and less expensive, and provides a cleaner, more professional installation. Miele Electric Power sizes and installs subpanels correctly for the intended use — not undersized for cost savings that create problems later. We handle all Connecticut permits and inspections as part of every subpanel installation.
