SPAN smart panel installation in Northern California

Your home runs on circuits. Your breaker box controls them but until now, it could not tell you what was using power, could not respond to a blackout intelligently, and could not adapt when you added new appliances. SPAN changes all of that.

SPAN Panel is a whole-home energy management system that completely replaces your existing breaker box. It gives you circuit-level visibility and control from your phone, in real time. Every appliance, every room, every watt visible and manageable from the SPAN Home App.

Built by ex-Tesla engineers and recognized by Fast Company, Wired, and Good Housekeeping as one of the most innovative home energy products available, SPAN is now deployed in homes across all 50 states. Maverick Electric brings that technology to Northern California, installed by the same licensed team that handles your EV chargers, generators, and panel upgrades.

Your home was not built for what you are about to plug into it

Adding an EV charger, a heat pump, or a battery storage system often triggers a utility service upgrade, an expensive, time-consuming process that requires your utility to physically increase your home’s connection to the electrical grid.

$7,500 – $30,000

The cost of a utility service upgrade in California

SPAN’s PowerUp™ technology eliminates the need for that upgrade entirely. It intelligently monitors and balances your home’s total electrical load so you can add what you want, when you want, without the extra cost or the wait.

What SPAN does for your home

Harness your power

Monitor and control every circuit in your home from the SPAN Home App, from anywhere. See exactly what’s drawing power and turn off individual appliances remotely with a tap.

Outlast the elements

When the grid goes down, SPAN makes your battery work harder. Paired with a Tesla Powerwall or Enphase battery, SPAN extends your backup duration by up to 40% and lets you decide in real time which rooms and appliances stay powered.

Never waste a watt

SPAN learns your home’s energy patterns over time and surfaces insights designed to lower your bill. See your top energy users, identify waste, and shift load off peak hours automatically.

Future-proof your home

Adding an EV charger, heat pump, induction range, or hot tub? SPAN PowerUp™ handles the load balancing so each addition happens without expensive electrical rework, ever.

Your whole home. One app

Every SPAN Panel comes with the SPAN Home App,  free, included with installation. It gives you a 360-degree view of your home’s energy performance: what’s running now, what’s costing you the most, and how long your battery will last if the power goes out.

From the app you can turn circuits on or off remotely, set backup priorities for outages, schedule your EV charging to avoid peak-rate hours, and track energy use down to the room level. The app connects via Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or backup 4G/LTE — so it’s always reachable, even when the grid isn’t.

SPAN is for homeowners who are ready to do more

EV owners

Adding a Level 2 charger to a home that wasn’t designed for one can trigger a costly utility upgrade. SPAN’s dynamic load management handles the balancing automatically, so your car charges at full speed without overloading your electrical system.

Solar and battery homeowners

You invested in a Tesla Powerwall or Enphase battery for peace of mind. SPAN makes that investment perform better, extending backup duration by up to 40% and giving you full, real-time control over what stays powered when the grid goes down.

Homeowners planning upgrades

Heat pump. Induction range. Hot tub. Home addition. Whatever’s next for your home, SPAN sets the electrical foundation once, so every future upgrade happens without going back to the utility company.

Common questions about SPAN smart panels

What is a SPAN smart panel?

A SPAN smart panel is a next-generation electrical panel that completely replaces your existing breaker box. Unlike a standard panel, SPAN gives you circuit-level visibility and control through the SPAN Home App — so you can see exactly what’s using power, manage individual circuits remotely, and set backup priorities during a power outage.

How much does SPAN panel installation cost in Northern California?

SPAN Panel equipment starts at ,550. Installed costs in Northern California typically range from ,250 to ,250 before incentives. After the federal 25C tax credit (up to 00) and SMUD rebates (up to ,000 for qualifying projects), your net cost can be significantly lower. Contact Maverick for a free project estimate.

Do SMUD customers qualify for the SPAN panel rebate?

Yes. SMUD customers can save up to ,000 on a SPAN Panel as part of a qualifying home electrification project. Additional federal credits may also apply depending on your project scope. Our team will walk you through every available incentive during your free consultation.

What’s the difference between a SPAN panel and a regular electrical panel?

A standard electrical panel distributes power but offers no visibility, no app control, and no intelligence. A SPAN panel does all of that, circuit-level monitoring, remote on/off control, battery backup management, load balancing for new appliances, and energy insights that help lower your bill. It installs in the same location in the same amount of time.

Can I add an EV charger without upgrading my electrical panel?

Yes, with SPAN. PowerUp™ technology intelligently monitors and balances your home’s total electrical load, so you can add an EV charger, heat pump, or other high-draw appliance without triggering a utility service upgrade. In California, those upgrades can cost between ,500 and 0,000. SPAN eliminates that for most homes.

Does the SPAN panel work with Tesla Powerwall and other battery systems?

Yes. SPAN Panel is compatible with Tesla Powerwall, Enphase, SolarEdge, FranklinWH, and other major home battery systems. When paired with a battery, SPAN extends your backup duration by up to 40% during an outage and gives you full control over which circuits stay powered, adjustable in real time from the app.

What is a SPAN authorized installer?

A SPAN Authorized Installer is a licensed electrician who has completed SPAN’s official training and certification. Only authorized installers can commission SPAN Panels and connect the SPAN Home App. Maverick Electric is a SPAN-certified installer serving Northern California.

How long does SPAN panel installation take?

Most SPAN installations take between 3 and 8 hours — similar in timeline to a standard panel swap. Maverick handles all permitting, wiring, app commissioning, and homeowner setup before the job is complete.
