"My wife and I couldn’t be happier with our decision to hire Capital District Electric, and we can’t say enough good things about the owner, Eric Smith. We needed our dangerous Federal Pacific electrical panel replaced (search it). Through Angie's List, we contacted several contractors. Eric was the first to reply and the first to come over to give us an estimate. (One didn’t even bother to tell us they weren’t interested in the work.) We liked Eric right away. He’s professional, polite, and personable. He knows his trade and is very good at it. He was here when he said he would be and gone when he said would be, the place left absolutely clean. His work and work ethic are impeccable. I wish I took before and after photos of the two panels. The original one looked like a square bowl of spaghetti, with twisted wires sticking out the top, sides, and bottom. The new one is perfect with all the wires neatly entering the top. It was nice to deal with the owner of the company, rather than someone who’s just doing a job. It would be a big mistake to make a decision about Capital District Electric and Eric based on the two lowest ratings on this site. Obviously they didn’t have work done, and one doesn’t appear to apply to this contractor. They should be taken down. And No, we’re not related to Eric."

"We had a project to install a generator hook-up point and a new 240 line for a central air conditioner. The Electrician, Wes, has to "fish" a wire through our garage wall ceiling to reach the outside wall - the work was completed very quickly and well done. If you need high quality electrical work S & S Electric is an excellent choice."

"Alex did a great job relocating an outlet for me so my pool pump cord could reach it. He also did a great job replacing the plug on the pool. Doing it all while it was pouring rain and roads being flooded. Also the price was very fair"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Duanesburg, NY

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.
