Electrical wiring
Federal HEAR framework maximum for qualifying wiring upgrades, subject to Michigan approval and project limits.
Michigan homeowners and renters with landlord participation who meet current MiHER income, property, project and contractor requirements.
Load service center
Federal HEAR framework maximum for a qualifying panel or load-service-center upgrade.
Income-based cost share
Michigan describes up to 100% for enhanced rebates and up to 50% for standard rebates, within program caps.
Electrical work must support an approved project
MiHER includes a Home Electrification and Appliance Rebates pathway for qualifying high-efficiency electric equipment and related electrical upgrades. The federal HEAR framework includes maximums of up to $2,500 for electric wiring and up to $4,000 for an electric load service center.
Those numbers are maximum measure limits—not automatic awards. Michigan's assessment, income rules, approved scope, total project cost, available funding and other program caps determine the actual rebate.
Current Michigan income structure
Michigan states that households below 80% of area median income may qualify for enhanced rebates covering up to 100% of qualifying project costs. Households from 80% through 150% of area median income may qualify for standard rebates covering up to 50%, subject to program limits and verification.
The state currently describes applications as open to low- and moderate-income residents. Customers should use the official MiHER application and income tools for a current determination.
Apply and receive approval before starting work
The MiHER process begins with customer eligibility and an application, followed by selection of an approved MiHER contractor, a home assessment and an approved project scope. Work completed outside that process may not qualify.
Michigan requires covered work to be completed through MiHER Registered Contractors. Landmark does not represent on this website that it is currently a MiHER Registered Contractor unless that status is separately confirmed in writing for the project.
Electrical improvements that may be involved
A qualifying electrification project may require panel capacity, new circuits or wiring changes to safely serve the approved equipment. The final scope must be coordinated with the program assessment and the equipment being installed.
- Panel or load-service-center capacity upgrades
- New wiring and dedicated circuits for approved electric equipment
- Required overcurrent, GFCI or AFCI protection
- Disconnects, equipment connections, permits and inspections
Program terms control eligibility
Rebates, discounts and credits are not guaranteed. Eligibility, funding, qualifying equipment, application timing and payment are determined by the program administrator. Verify the current official requirements before purchasing equipment or beginning work.

Can I receive $4,000 for any panel replacement?
No. The amount is a maximum within the federal HEAR framework. Michigan must approve the household, project and measure, and the panel work generally must support qualifying electrification equipment.
Can electrical repairs already completed be submitted afterward?
Do not assume they can. MiHER uses an application, approved contractor, assessment and project-approval process before covered work is completed.
Does Landmark's electrical license automatically make it a MiHER contractor?
No. MiHER has a separate registered-contractor requirement. Program participation must be confirmed independently.
Can renters qualify?
Michigan states that renters may qualify for certain rebates with landlord participation, subject to the program's current requirements.
