"Ken installed a 60 amp circuit out to the driveway for an electric car charger. He was extremely prompt and responsive. Showed up early. Job was done efficiently and the inspector remarked about how good the work looked. He also cleaned up our panel and made things safer."

"Overall, Dave's service was excellent. Dave was punctual, professional and provided a fair price. He was available via chat to agree on appointments and helped me with the town permit. He upgraded my kitchen lighting by adding more circuits, running two electrical lines for the cooktop, wall oven, and updated the electrical panel. He cleaned the area after work was done. He is friendly and courteous. I highly recommend Dave."

Customers say: Quality work

"Worked with Brian on a shed lighting and pool electrical system when my shed was damaged from a storm. He came out quickly, on time, safely removed all the electric from the shed while it was replaced, then came back out and installed all new equipment, cleaning a lot of the clutter up into one simple panel. Overall, we are very happy with the quality of his work and will be using his company as our first choice for any and all future electric work for our home. I will also keep him in mind when friends/neighbors ask for recommendations. Thanks again Brain, job well done!"

"We recently bought a new house that needed a panel upgrade and some old fixtures/switches/outlets replaced. When we first scheduled a walk through with Miguel he took his time to point out the different electric issues and what should be replaced. He was very thorough and fairly priced, so we decided to go with him for the electric work. Miguel and his guys were always on time and provided great service. The work was finished on schedule as he promised. He was also very easy to contact and responded quickly when I had questions. Miguel and his guys also coordinated the inspection with the town. I would definitely recommend Miguel and MDL electric to anyone who needs electric work done.

"Hired this company and they showed up when said they would. Found that there was a wiring issue with an appliance that could of caused a major issue, with no extra cost. Put an electrical outlet on back deck with no mess and cleaned up after themselves, rare thing these days. Very pleasant, and let us know exactly what was done and no extras without informing first with a price that did not vary. Would recommend to all."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Franklin Lakes, NJ

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.
