Licensing and permits
Electrical work in Florida requires a contractor licensed by the Electrical Contractors' Licensing Board (DBPR), and most panel, service and circuit work needs a permit.
Tips before you hire
- If an insurer flagged your panel (some older brands and fuse panels), get a panel-replacement quote that includes the permit and the utility coordination.
- Ask whether the quote includes surge protection and the code-required GFCI and AFCI updates.
- For EV chargers and generators, have the electrician confirm your panel's capacity first.

Will my insurer care about my electrical panel?
