Burlingame is a charming Peninsula city known for its tree-lined streets, upscale Broadway Avenue, and beautiful older homes. The city's residential neighborhoods — from the grand homes of Burlingame Hills to the classic bungalows of Easton Addition — feature housing from the early 1900s through the 1960s. Many of these homes have original electrical systems that need careful modernization. Fox Electric serves Burlingame with the expertise needed for older home electrical work, from rewiring to panel upgrades.

200A Panel & EV Charger — Burlingame
A Burlingame homeowner wanted a Tesla Wall Connector, but the original 100A panel was already maxed out. We upgraded to a 200A Eaton service, coordinated the PG&E meter swap, pulled the city permit, and ran a dedicated 60A EV circuit — powered back up the same afternoon.
- Before: Maxed-out 100A panel, no room for an EV circuit
- After: 200A Eaton service + dedicated 60A Tesla Wall Connector
- Timeline: Permit pulled, installed, and re-energized in one day
- Outcome: EV-ready, with headroom for a future heat pump
