Learn more →View Park and Windsor Hills is unincorporated hillside housing with substantial midcentury homes, so permits run through LA County and the utility is Edison. Long runs and original panels are the standard findings.
View Park was developed between the 1920s and 1970 by the Los Angeles Investment Company, the same firm behind Hancock Park, and its homes range from Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean Revival to midcentury designs on curving hillside streets. Windsor Hills followed in the late 1930s and was the first Southern California subdivision to get FHA mortgage insurance, with Spanish revival and minimal traditional houses. Together they form one of the most affluent majority Black communities in the country.
Many homes here are large, well kept and owner occupied, often by long term residents, so original services from the 1930s through the 1960s are still in place. Federal Pacific and Zinsco panels are common in midcentury houses, and hillside lots mean long service runs to the panel. Owners call when insurers flag panel brands, when adding central air, pools or EV chargers, and when renovating homes they plan to keep for decades.
Midcentury homes in View Park and Windsor Hills frequently still have original Federal Pacific or Zinsco panels that insurers flag.
How we handle it →Large View Park homes adding central air, pools and EV chargers often outgrow services installed between the 1930s and 1960s.
How we handle it →Hillside garages in View Park and Windsor Hills often sit far from the panel, so EV chargers need careful feeder routing.
How we handle it →Older View Park and Windsor Hills homes from the 1920s and 1930s may still have original cloth wiring or knob and tube.
How we handle it →Electrical work in View Park Windsor Hills is permitted through LA County Public Works (unincorporated), and the service is energized by Southern California Edison. We handle the permit application, the plan check where one is required, the inspection scheduling and the utility coordination as part of the job.
View Park and Windsor Hills are unincorporated, so LA County Public Works issues permits and its inspectors sign off, not LADBS. Southern California Edison is the utility, and it reviews the service design for upgrades. Long hillside service runs can affect that review. Expect a county permit first, then the SCE shutoff, the work, a county inspection, and Edison reconnecting after the county clears it.
Because View Park and Windsor Hills are unincorporated, even though mail is addressed to Los Angeles. LA County Public Works handles building permits and inspections, and SCE provides power instead of LADWP. We handle the county permit and SCE coordination, which is a different process from the City of LA.
It can. Long runs mean larger conductors to manage voltage drop, more trenching or conduit, and possibly relocating the meter closer to the street. SCE reviews the service layout before work starts. We assess the run, propose the most practical meter location, and size the service so it supports future loads.
