SPAN Smart Panel installation in Lakeway — skip the 400A trench.
When a 200A Rough Hollow, Serene Hills, or Flintrock Falls home adds dual EVs, a heated pool and spa, and Tesla Powerwall or Enphase battery storage, Certified SPAN Smart Panels unlock app-controlled circuit load management in a single day — permitted with the City of Lakeway and backed by our 10-year workmanship warranty.
Unlock 400A-class capability on rocky Lakeway hillside lots
Multi-level estates in Rough Hollow, Serene Hills, Flintrock Falls, and The Hills sit over dense Lake Travis limestone where upgrading an underground Pedernales Electric Cooperative (PEC) or Austin Energy service lateral from 200A to 320A/400A can mean months of utility engineering and tens of thousands of dollars in rock excavation and driveway demolition. Replacing your existing 200A load center with a Certified SPAN Panel MAIN 32 or MAIN 40 solves capacity in one day: onboard current sensors monitor whole-home draw in real time and dynamically throttle EV charging or non-essential pool and heat-pump circuits during peak summer spikes so your main breaker never trips.
Stretch solar battery backup through Lake Travis storms under TECL #38552
Traditional critical-load subpanels force Lakeway homeowners to lock in a few backup circuits forever. SPAN pairs natively with Tesla Powerwall, Enphase IQ Battery, and FranklinWH storage so you can reprioritize or toggle up to 40 individual circuits live from the SPAN Home App whenever a Hill Country squall drops PEC or Austin Energy lines. Every installation is performed by licensed Texas electricians under TECL #38552, includes City of Lakeway Building & Development Services permitting, utility disconnect/reconnect coordination, Type 2 surge protection, and our 10-year panel workmanship warranty, plus 24/7 emergency support for existing customers.

Recommended NEC Path
Direct 60A Hardwired EV Circuit (Load Calc Verified)
Most modern 200-amp panels can support a dedicated 60A hardwired Level 2 charger directly. If all-electric HVAC, double ovens, or a pool push your NEC Article 220 load calculation near 80%, dynamic EV power management lets you charge at full speed without upgrading to 400A service.
Typical 2026 Austin Range$889 – $2,400 Varies by conduit distance & wall routing (up to $4,400 for 100–200 ft detached runs)

⚡ 200A Panel Replacement & Austin Energy Permit · Austin, TX
“The DC Electric team was phenomenal! They came out and replaced a tricky inset panel in one day. Rodney, Anthony, Andrew, Rico were professional, quick, and filled us with confidence that they could get the job done. They worked with Austin Energy to get permits approved and finish the inspection in record time. We are beyond impressed with their excellent work! This was no easy job.”
“Nick came out for the quote — kind and thorough, and helped me think through all the work. Install day was flawless: the crew put in a car charger, 16 can lights, and two new circuits, and insisted on making it perfect. They are not the cheapest electricians in town, but you absolutely get what you pay for.”
“I purchased a 1951 home with multiple electrical issues on the inspection. Every deficiency was addressed — and they told me which components did not need updating. A storm rolled in while I was away and the techs closed all my windows. I came home to a dry house.”
“I needed to replace my panel, and add outlets to the bathroom and garage. Pete was helpful in getting my estimate. Max and Rico did a great job with the installation. Everyone was very friendly. The pricing was straightforward and fair. They had me scheduled fairly quickly and finished the job quickly.”
“They showed up right on time and worked nonstop in the heat, provided a generator so we had power while they worked, answered every question, explained everything, and cleaned up before leaving. I’ll definitely use them again.”
“Big thank you to Rodney, Max and Pete from DC Electric who helped us install new recessed lights in our kitchen. They were on time, super helpful working out what would work best, did a good quality install and clean up and were very friendly and easy to work with. Will definitely use again!”
“We got multiple bids to restore power to our garage unit, and the team at DC were the easy choice. Scheduling was easy, communication was consistent, and most importantly, they took care of everything thoroughly — complete on time, with no surprises.”
“Fast, efficient, clean, and extremely knowledgeable about the hardware and setup. Ed and the crew walked me through the whole system and I’ve spent hours playing with my new SPAN setup!”
“Andrew and Jonathan did an amazing job installing our EV charger. They walked us through the setup, stayed true to the quote, and left the garage cleaner than they found it.”
“Rico, Rodney and Nathan were professionals with my charger install. Explained every step of the process to me, informed me of every step during the install, and walked me through final install and operation. Left a clean work space, and their final work looked very clean. Highly recommend!”
Can a SPAN Smart Panel let my 200A Lakeway home run two EV chargers and a pool?
Yes. Using UL-listed Power Control System (PCS) dynamic load management recognized by the NEC, SPAN lets a 200A Rough Hollow, Serene Hills, or Live Oak residence safely operate dual Level 2 EV chargers alongside multiple HVAC condensers and heated pool equipment without waiting on a 400A utility transformer upgrade.
Does DC Electric handle City of Lakeway permits and PEC or Austin Energy meter pulls for SPAN?
Yes. Because eastern 78734 streets sit in Austin Energy territory while western Lakeway subdivisions are served by PEC, our office verifies your utility boundary, pulls the City of Lakeway electrical permit, schedules the morning meter disconnect and afternoon reconnect, and meets the municipal inspector.
Will SPAN integrate with my existing rooftop solar and Tesla Powerwall in Lakeway?
Yes. As Certified SPAN and Tesla installers, we integrate SPAN with existing or newly installed Tesla Powerwall, Enphase, and FranklinWH battery systems, label every circuit in your app before leaving, and back our panel installation with a 10-year workmanship warranty.
Do your licensed electricians handle span smart panel near me across all Lakeway neighborhoods?
Yes. DC Electric dispatches licensed, background-checked electricians (TECL #38552) near you across Lakeway, TX, coordinating Austin Energy & Pedernales Electric Cooperative (PEC) utility requirements, municipal permits, and firm upfront flat-rate pricing.
