"Carmen came right away when called, I wanted my electrical service to be upgraded to 200Amps. He was very professional, and the work came out phenomenal. I called him a week later to put in a Tesla charger station. I couldnâ  t be more happy with the outcome. HIGHLY recommended."

"Brandon responded to my call immediately. He set up a time to meet and his co-worker Will showed up promptly as scheduled.He installed a 4 prong 220 outlet. He is very honest because he saved me $100 by using the existing wire when i thought he would need to run new wire. Both Brandon and Will were very professional and took the time to explain what they were doing. I would recommend Phillips Electrical without hesitation."

"I met ElectriChris, Inc (Chris David) through an online referral service in March, 2018. From 2018 through 2024, Chris has done nine separate electrical projects for me. I am definitely a satisfied customer. Chris does neat, professional work. He knows the code and his work meets the code. All of the projects that Chris has done for me were done while we occupied the house. He cleans the work site at the end of each day, and the disruption to our house was kept to a minimum."

"Hired Santo Electric through Angi for an electrical panel upgrade. From the quick initial contact through the completion of the job, Anthony was on top of things: frequent communication, responses in minutes and he ended every conversation with “Do you have any questions?”. I really appreciated that. He handled the whole process with ease, was professional and even added little touches like wearing booties while in my home without being asked. I’ve found my new electrician!"

"Chris did an amazing job on the project that I hired him for. He installed new light fixtures, new Smart thermostats across the house, and replaced recessed light trims as well. He was the utmost professional and I would 100% hire him again."
This is during the rough construction phase of the project if you look closely you can see out wiring
This is the best look at the new 200amp Service installed at the property.  We were able to work with National Grid to insure the proper sized drop was installed free of cost, and that the point of attachment could be moved so not to interfere with the siding contractor

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Marblehead, MA

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.
