SPAN Smart Panel · West Lake Hills, TX

The SPAN smart panel, made for the way West Lake Hills lives

West Lake Hills runs on technology — and your home’s electrical heart can too. A SPAN panel turns the breaker box into something you actually see and control: every circuit on your phone, loads balanced automatically, and a home ready for EVs, solar, and battery backup when the canopy comes down in a storm.

Worth knowing before you upgrade

Your panel decides what your home can do. SPAN lets you decide too.

A breaker box hides everything; a smart panel shows it

Most homes can’t see where their power goes until the bill lands. SPAN meters every circuit in real time, so you finally understand — and can steer — your home’s energy.

Heavy loads needn’t mean a bigger service

An EV, the AC and the oven together on a hot afternoon is exactly when an ordinary panel strains. SPAN balances them intelligently, often letting you add big loads without a larger service upgrade.

The home you wire today should be ready for tomorrow

Solar, a second EV, a battery — built around top-tier equipment and software, a SPAN home welcomes what’s next instead of needing to be redone for it.

In a place this wired — the home automation, the solar, the cars that plug in — a breaker box that hides everything behind a metal door feels a generation behind. A SPAN smart panel finally brings the heart of the house up to speed.

Why West Lake Hills takes to the smart panel so naturally

The households on these ridgelines that already run EVs, solar arrays, and connected everything tend to want that same intelligence at the source. SPAN replaces your main panel with one that meters every circuit in real time, lays it all out in a clean app, and lets you decide what matters — right down to which rooms keep power when it counts.

Balance an EV, the pool, the AC, and the whole house

A SPAN panel conducts the house the way a good conductor handles an orchestra. It eases EV charging up and down so a hot afternoon — AC at full tilt across a few thousand square feet, the pool pump running, two cars plugged in — never trips the main. For many large homes here, that smart balancing is what lets you add heavy loads without stepping up to a larger and far costlier service.

Built for the outages the canopy brings

The mature oak canopy that makes these lots beautiful also brings the power down when a storm rolls through. Paired with a Tesla Powerwall or a FranklinWH battery, SPAN decides circuit by circuit where your stored power goes during an outage — so the fridge, the well pump, the internet, and the bedrooms stay lit far longer than a whole-home approach would manage. And built on top-tier hardware and software, the home you wire today is ready for the solar, the second EV, or the battery you add tomorrow.

Permits, handled when the project calls for them

A panel like this usually calls for a permit and an inspection. When yours does, we handle the paperwork, the scheduling, and any Austin Energy coordination — quietly, as part of the work.

One clear price, before we begin

We map your circuits and what you want the home to do, then hand you one written price, settled before anything starts. Financing’s there if it makes the project easier — just ask, and we’ll walk you through it.

Why DC Electric for SPAN

A smart panel is only as smart as its install

Every circuit, in your hand

Real-time monitoring of the whole home in a clean app — you see exactly where power goes and what each circuit is doing, from anywhere.

Smart load management

SPAN eases flexible loads like EV charging up and down around the rest of the home, smoothing the peaks that would trip a conventional panel.

Backup that lasts longer

Paired with a Tesla Powerwall or FranklinWH battery, SPAN directs stored power circuit by circuit — so the essentials run far longer during an outage.

Certified installation

We’re trained on the platform, so the panel is installed to spec, commissioned properly, and set up in the app before we leave.

Ready for solar and a second EV

Built with headroom and intelligence, your home takes on what’s next without another teardown.

One clear price, agreed up front

We map your circuits and goals, then hand you a single written price before any work begins.

What Comes Standard

The standard a West Lake Hills home deserves.

Guidance first, never a sales pitch

We do the work and walk you through the real options, so the decision stays yours and it fits the house in front of us — not the largest line item we could write.So the plan you approve is the one your home genuinely calls for.

One grade of materials: the best, every time

We fit a single tier of equipment — the top-tier names we’ll warranty for years — because in a home like yours a bargain breaker or builder-grade device is a false economy that surfaces later.So what’s behind your walls today is still performing decades from now.

Careful hands, and respect for the house

We’re not paid to hurry. We protect finishes, keep a tidy site, give the work the hours it truly needs, and treat a Stenger or a glass-walled hillside home the way it deserves.So the result is right the first time — and made right, on us, if it ever isn’t.

Common Questions

Answers before you book

What does a SPAN smart panel actually do?
It replaces your main electrical panel with one that monitors every circuit in real time, shows it all in an app, and manages loads automatically. You can see exactly where your power goes and decide what stays on during an outage — circuit by circuit.
Can SPAN help me add an EV charger without upgrading my service?
Often, yes. SPAN’s load management can ease your charger up and down around the rest of the home’s demand, which for many West Lake Hills homes means adding a charger without a larger service upgrade. We’ll tell you plainly whether that applies to yours.
Does SPAN work with a Tesla Powerwall or FranklinWH battery?
Yes — that’s where it shines. SPAN directs stored battery power circuit by circuit during an outage, so the essentials run far longer than a whole-home backup would manage.
Is SPAN worth it if I don’t have solar yet?
Many West Lake Hills owners install SPAN first precisely so the home is ready. The monitoring and load control stand on their own, and adding solar or a battery later becomes far simpler.
Will I need a permit?
Usually. If and when a permit and inspection are required, we handle the paperwork and scheduling, and coordinate anything Austin Energy needs.
Do you offer financing?
Yes — financing is available if it makes the project easier. Just ask and we’ll walk you through it, with no pressure either way.
