Sub Panel Installation in Santa Monica, CA
A sub panel lets a Santa Monica property add a workshop, ADU, pool equipment or garage EV charger without crowding the main panel. Unique Electrical Services installs sub panels in Santa Monica, CA with correctly sized feeders, separate grounds and neutrals, and enough spare capacity for what comes next.
Sub Panel Installation services we provide in Santa Monica
- Garage and detached workshop sub panels
- ADU and guest house electrical panels

- Sub panels for home additions and remodels
- Underground and overhead feeder installation
- Trenching coordination for detached buildings
- Circuit relocation from a full main panel
- Load calculations and permit handling
Each sub panel project in Santa Monica starts with a load calculation to confirm the main service can support the new panel. We then run a properly sized feeder, install the sub panel with its own breakers, bond and ground it correctly, and label everything. The result is a clean, expandable panel that passes inspection the first time.
We have installed sub panels for garages, ADUs and shops in Santa Monica and neighboring Venice, Marina Del Rey and Pacific Palisades. If your main panel is already full, we can also discuss whether a panel upgrade should be paired with the sub panel so you are not back at capacity next year.
A sub panel makes sense in Santa Monica when
- You are building or converting an ADU or garage
- The main panel has no open breaker spaces
- You need several new circuits in one area
- You are adding a shop with 240-volt tools
- Pool or spa equipment needs its own feed
