Berkeley is a community of about 121,385, roughly 43% owner-occupied homes, a median home built around 1945. In California, real seasonal swings mean homes need wiring and panels that comfortably handle both heating and cooling loads. Homes built around 1945 can still carry aging wiring, ungrounded outlets, or undersized panels, so panel upgrades, rewiring and GFCI work are common here.
