"Kenny was the tech performing the electrical work. He arrived when they said he would and was careful not to track the outdoors into the house (put on booties). He was well organized and I did not have any issues tripping over him or his tools. Now for the not so happy part. I had bought the electrical switches and outlets for the job. Four were installed at approx $200. You should be able to install at least three of these in an hour so if Coleman is charging $25 per outlet that seems a little high. (But hey, I grew up when gas was 35 cents a gallon). When I went to clean up downstairs I noticed one of the newly installed ceiling light panels in the suspended ceiling had a **hot** spot along one edge. I lifted a panel next to the light, pressed down and the problem went away. The metal cross brace on the other side of the panel had been bent downwards and inwards causing sideways pressure to bow the panel upwards causing the hot spot. It was by no means a simple job to remove the old fluorescent fixture and replace it with the new led one, however, it would have been nice to be told what happened. Lastly, the boxes that the led light panels came in were left. I had purchased them so Coleman was under no obligation to remove the packaging. Still, I wish they would have offered."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Manhattan, KS

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.
