Panel Repair & Upgrades
Distribution panels sized for a building's original load rarely match its current demand after years of added appliances, air conditioning, or equipment. Our team assesses panel condition and capacity, then repairs, re-rates, or replaces switchgear to bring it back within safe operating margins.
Scope of work
- Panel inspection and thermal assessment
- Breaker and busbar repair or replacement
- Capacity upgrades and panel re-rating
- Surge protection device installation
- Labelling and circuit schedule updates
Our process
Assess
Site survey, load assessment, and diagnostics. We measure the actual conditions before proposing a scope.
Design
A specified, documented design against the assessed load: circuit schedules and single-line diagrams, not verbal estimates.
Install
Work executed by our certified team to the documented design, with safety isolation and site protocols observed throughout.
Test & Handover
Commissioning tests, compliance checks, and as-built documentation handed over. Not just a completed job, a documented one.

Common questions
What areas do you serve?
We're based in Wuse 2, Abuja, and serve all of Abuja - including Wuse 2, Wuse, Gwarinpa, Central Business District, Guzape, Asokoro, Maitama, Katampe, Garki, Jabi, Utako, Lokogoma, Apo, Life Camp, Kubwa, and Lugbe - with project work extending to neighboring states and wider Nigeria depending on scope.
Are you licensed and certified?
Yes. Kell Electricals Limited (RC 1852579) is certified by COREN (Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria) and NEMSA (Nigerian Electricity Management Services Agency).
What are your business hours?
Monday – Friday: 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM. Saturday: 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM. Sunday: Closed. For genuine electrical emergencies outside these hours, call +234 814 020 5895 directly.
How do I get a quote?
Submit the form on our Contact page, call +234 814 020 5895, or message us on WhatsApp. We respond with a scoped assessment rather than a rough estimate over the phone.
What services does Kell Electricals provide?
A full range of electrical engineering services: wiring and installation, panel repair and upgrades, solar and hybrid inverter systems, home automation, CCTV and security, generator installation and maintenance, industrial electrical systems, and scheduled preventive maintenance. The full list is on our Services page.
Do you offer ongoing maintenance, or only one-off jobs?
Both. We handle one-off installation and repair work, and also offer scheduled preventive maintenance contracts (panel inspection, thermal imaging, generator and solar system checks) for clients who want faults caught before they become outages.
Do you work on both residential and commercial projects?
Yes, and industrial too. Scope, documentation, and compliance requirements differ by property type, which is why we treat residential, commercial, and industrial work as distinct engineering problems rather than the same job at different sizes.
Can you work alongside my architect or contractor on a fit-out?
Yes. Commercial and office fit-out electrical work is a regular part of our scope, coordinated with architects, M&E consultants, and the wider construction timeline rather than run as an isolated trade.
Do you have examples of completed commercial electrical work?
Yes - for example, we delivered the complete electrical decking, conduit piping, wiring, and fixture installation and finishing for a cooperative society's building in Garki II, Abuja. See our Projects page for more recent work across residential, commercial, and industrial properties.
