The Memorial Villages are home to some of Houston’s most distinguished estates, but beauty and heritage come with a challenge: many of these properties sit under a dense canopy of mature pine and oak trees that take down power lines every time a Gulf storm moves through.

To make things more complex, the mid-century electrical infrastructure in many Memorial homes was never designed to support a modern whole-home standby generator without a serious panel upgrade first.

Current Power Technologies specializes in exactly this environment. We are a family-owned, fully licensed electrical contractor delivering 100% turnkey standby power solutions, panel upgrades, and full-scale electrical services across Memorial and the Memorial Villages.

Why Memorial Trusts Current Power Technologies

  • Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) or Zinsco Panels: These two brands are no longer permitted in residential or commercial installations. FPE Stab-Lok panels in particular are known to fail to trip during overloads, creating a serious fire risk. If your property still has one of these panels, it needs to be replaced. We identify and replace both brands safely and to code.

  • Frequent Breaker Trips: If your breakers are tripping regularly, that is your panel telling you it cannot handle the load you are putting on it. Resetting breakers is not a fix. An upgrade is.

  • Adding a Standby Generator: A whole-home standby generator requires a properly integrated transfer switch. If your current panel cannot support the addition, we upgrade it as part of the generator installation process.

  • Installing an EV Charger: Level 2 EV chargers draw significant power. Older panels, especially 100-amp services, frequently need to be upgraded to 200 amps before a charger can be safely installed.

  • Home Sale or Inspection Failure: Home inspectors regularly flag outdated or undersized panels. We help homeowners and buyers resolve these findings quickly and accurately.
