"Josh installed the electrical for my finished basement project in my older home. He was very friendly and made it easy to ask questions. He made recommendations on lighting and outlet placement that reflected my needs, as well as updating out of date wiring. I will be using him again!"

"Working with the team from Go Electric was definitely a 5 star experience! I was looking to upgrade the service panel on a 120 year old house from 100 amps to 200 amps in order to convert to appliances from gas to electric. I have a breathing condition that is worsened by the fumes of gas combustion. The quote was fully explained. The change in the panel would also require outside work to the mast and connection to power in order to meet safety codes. Not only was quote from GO almost 3K less than other quotes for the same work, but Brandon informed me that the work would qualify for a $1500 rebate from the energy provider AND GO would help me with getting the paperwork done for that. Installation was equally smooth and stress free with power being out no longer than was explained to me. Adam and his team are real pros and they deliver great work. Inspection was completed in a week with no faults found. I strongly recommend this business for electrical work. Chris A. St Paul"

"Anchor Electric is going to be my go-to for electrical work in my home. As a new home buyer, I felt overwhelmed by the electrical work that needed to be done. Dan was efficient and confident. He upgraded our panel which made our home feel safer. We already are working with Dan on troubleshooting a different issue. I would definitely recommend Anchor Electric/Dan! "

"I was looking for an electrician to help me out in my new (older) home. I needed an update on my lights in multiple rooms, wiring to a new panel, and switches/outlets replaced. Adam was very honest and straight forward with pricing and tasks he and his team were going to be completing. I was very impressed with Adam and his team on the communication aspect but also the professionalism. They installed new wiring for 3 ceiling fans with lights in my upstairs bedrooms, routed wiring for an exhaust fan in my upstairs bathroom, completed installation on exterior and interior 150 amp panel (needed to be replaced on the fact the panel was original to the home being built in 1977), and installed new lights in the living room and basement. I will be requesting the services of Adam and his team down the road when I need further electrical work done. If you want a quality electrician and honest work, Go Electric is the company to have work for you."

"Mike did an excellent job installing a new main breaker panel. The old one was a brand (Federal) that is well known to be unreliable and potentially dangerous. We feel much safer having this project completed by Randy's Electric."

"I received a prompt response to my request for an estimate. During the initial visit, Mike gave me a thorough, complete, and prompt estimate educating me on my current electrical system and the work to be done. Bob was responsive, friendly, flexible and easy to work with during the scheduling and billing process. Joe and Brian were friendly and professional explaining the work and answering all my questions. They communicated clearly through the whole process. Joe and Brian worked so hard to upgrade our electrical panel from fuses to breakers. They also installed an outdoor meter on the side of our house. They were very thorough and took their time to make sure the work was done right. They worked from 8 am to 6ish pm the first day. Then they came back the next morning to finish the work once again making sure everything was done properly. I even got estimates for more electrical work we need to get done! I highly recommend Randy's Electric and the professionals I referred to above."

"Excellent. The whole team is respectful and left the work areas very clean. They do the little things that separate themselves from others extremely well. For the panel there was a follow-up need Jason, the owner, came back out to our home at 10PM. And for the light fixtures Parker noticed we had a dimmer on a switch that wasn't connected to a dimmable light, a fire hazard, so he put a new switch in for us, something that wasn't on our radar. We will call them for any future electrical needs."

"We purchased a St. Paul home built in 1900 knowing that we would have to replace the knob and tube wiring. Nordeast Electric performed a very thorough and fair estimate right after closing that was easy to understand. KC and John were very knowledgeable, efficient, courteous and easy going. They came up with solutions to every problem and respected the integrity of our home. They kept holes to a minimum while replacing the knob and tube in our plaster walls and they always cleaned up after themselves. We had no surprise costs or upcharges, just fair, honest work. Overall, they were great people and they did a great job! We couldn't be happier with the experience and in the words of KC, youâ  ll think Nordeast is Cool! Sweet! Awesome!"

"Shout out to Kevin he was on time, very courteous, knew exactly what I needed and was quick about it. Checked and updated older electrical panel in a loft and inspected and tweaked outlets. On board to install fixtures which were delayed and so I had to make another appointment. All good. I recommended to friends and family. Pricing very fair and will go-to anytime I need further electrical services."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Dayton, MN

While homeowners with substantial electrical knowledge might technically attempt a subpanel installation, most local building departments require permits and inspections for this type of work. Professional electricians understand local code requirements, can obtain necessary permits, and ensure the installation meets safety standards. Given the significant safety risks associated with incorrect electrical work, most homeowners benefit from hiring a licensed professional.

A standard subpanel installation takes an average of four to eight hours. This timeframe may extend if you're installing multiple subpanels or adding specialized circuits like those for spa equipment. Factors such as difficult access points, complex wiring paths, or permit processing times can also affect the overall project duration.

Adding a subpanel doesn't directly reduce electricity consumption or lower your utility bills. A subpanel simply redistributes power from your main panel to additional circuits. However, organizing your electrical system more efficiently may help prevent overloaded circuits and the associated problems. For actual cost savings, consider energy-efficient appliances and lighting instead.

The appropriate subpanel size depends on your specific electrical requirements. Consider the number and type of devices you'll be powering, potential future needs, and the capacity of your main electrical panel. An electrician can perform a load calculation to determine the most suitable amperage rating for your situation, ensuring you have adequate power without overpaying for unnecessary capacity.

A main electrical panel connects directly to your utility's power supply and contains your home's primary service disconnect. It distributes electricity throughout your entire house. A subpanel, by contrast, receives power from the main panel and redistributes it to a specific area of your home. Think of the main panel as the primary distribution point and the subpanel as a secondary branch that extends your electrical system's reach.

While electrical upgrades aren't as immediately visible as kitchen or bathroom renovations, they can contribute to your home's functionality and safety. Prospective buyers often appreciate updated electrical systems that can accommodate modern power demands. A properly installed subpanel that provides additional capacity for workshops, home offices, or future expansions could be an attractive feature for certain buyers, though the direct impact on home value varies by market.
