"One of our ceiling fans started turning its lights on and off, at full brightness and at dimmest setting, and blinking them by itself. Kyle, our technician, came the day after we called. He was on time, personable, and fixed the problem by removing the receiver for our universal remote control and allowing two switches to control the lights and rotating fan. He said that even slight power surges into a home could damage the circuit board in the receiver, and recommended that, if we wanted a remote, we get a fan that had one built in. He suggested that we do that and remove the old fan and receiver, which would save us the $99 fee for removing the receiver from the old fan until we could get a new one, but we opted to go ahead and have the receiver removed now. We appreciated him trying to save us that money. He had a vacuum cleaner which he used to clean up debris that had dropped during the removal process, and took the receiver and wires to be disposed of. The total cost of his visit was the $99."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Colfax, IN

Yes, a licensed electrician is essential for this project. Running an electrical service from the road to your house involves connecting to utility power lines, complying with national and local electrical codes, and safely handling high-voltage systems. 

Licensed professionals understand proper wire sizing, grounding requirements, and voltage drop calculations needed for safe installation. Most jurisdictions require permits and inspections that only certified professionals can obtain. The safety risks and potential for property damage make this project inappropriate for DIY attempts.

Overhead installations are less expensive than underground options. For a 1000-foot run, overhead service costs between $8,000 and $15,000, while underground service ranges from $10,000 to $25,000. 

Overhead lines require less labor and fewer materials since they don't need trenching or conduit. However, underground lines offer better protection from weather events and aesthetic benefits. Your decision should balance your budget constraints with long-term reliability and visual preferences.

You might need to upgrade your electrical panel depending on your power requirements. If your existing panel cannot handle the additional load from the extended service, upgrading to a 200-amp service (costing $750 to $2,000) may be necessary. 

A licensed electrician can evaluate your current system and determine if an upgrade is required. Factors include what you'll be powering at the end of the line, existing electrical demand, and whether voltage drop over the distance will affect performance.

Running electric service from the road to a house requires electrical permits from your local building department, costing between $500 and $2,000 depending on your location. You may also need excavation permits for trenching work if installing an underground service. Your utility company will have its own application process for connecting to its grid. A licensed electrical contractor can handle all the necessary permit applications as part of their service, ensuring your installation meets all local code requirements.
