200 AMP METER COMBO AND COPPER WIRING
Touchstone Electric completed a major electrical system upgrade for Jeff Williams in Seneca, SC. Technician Tyler installed a 200 amp meter combo with riser, relocated the main panel, improved grounding, and replaced aluminum home runs with copper wiring for safer long-term operation.
- 200 amp meter combo with riser installed
- Main panel moved from the bedroom to a better location
- New ground rod added to reinforce grounding
- Aluminum home runs replaced with copper wiring
Aluminum-to-copper conversion and panel relocation should be planned together. The service size, grounding, junction boxes, panel location, and future load all affect the safest installation path. This is the kind of work covered by electrical panel upgrade planning.

Why aluminum-to-copper conversion matters
Aluminum branch wiring can be safe only when installed and maintained correctly, but older aluminum connections are more vulnerable to heat from loose or incompatible terminations. NEC 110.14 focuses on terminations because conductor material, device rating, and connection quality all matter. Converting home runs to copper can reduce long-term connection risk when the scope is planned correctly.

Service Upgrade
The 200 amp meter combo and riser increased the home's electrical capacity and reliability.
Panel Relocation
Moving the panel out of the bedroom improved the home's electrical layout and serviceability.
Copper Conversion
Replacing aluminum home runs with copper reduced long-term connection concerns.
Clear Communication
The homeowner praised Tyler for being on time, explaining everything, and doing strong work.

- 1Review service capacity, panel location, grounding, and existing aluminum wiring.
- 2Install the 200 amp meter combo and riser for the upgraded service.
- 3Relocate the main panel and make clean, serviceable terminations.
- 4Replace aluminum home runs with copper wiring and test the finished system.
The homeowner said Tyler was on time, explained everything, and did great work. That matters on a project this broad because the homeowner needs to understand what changed and why it improves the home.
If your home has older aluminum wiring, a poorly located panel, or not enough capacity for modern equipment, ask for a full system review before deciding on the scope. Qualifying workmanship is backed by our Lifetime Craftsmanship Warranty.
