"Troy communicates well. He gave me several options on how to complete the work I needed done. The work was properly completed as discussed. Troy and his assistant cleaned up after themselves. I will hire Troy to do additional electrical work as needed. Thanks"

Very professional, used top-of-the-line equipment, and followed all the proper protocols. The price was reasonable too. I’ll be giving his reference to anyone who needs electrical work. Many thanks, Troy!""

"Upgrade by James G. (JZG Electric) James G. from JZG Electric did an outstanding job on our main panel upgrade. From the very beginning, he was prompt, professional, and incredibly thorough. He took the time to walk through the existing setup, explain the required changes in plain language, and outline exactly what to expect during the upgrade. On installation day, James worked efficiently and with clear attention to detail. His workmanship is clean, organized, and clearly reflects a deep understanding of electrical systems/code and safety standards. He coordinated the utility shut-off smoothly, kept the workspace neat, and ensured everything was brought up to code without any surprises. After the upgrade, he double-checked all circuits, labeled everything clearly, and made sure we understood the new panel layout. The difference in reliability and safety is immediately noticeable. Overall, James delivered exceptional service from start to finish. Highly recommend JZG Electric!"

"On August 4, 2020 our property was hit by tropical Storm, Isaias, knocking down trees and power lines. A large nut tree fell across the power lines from the telephone pole on our property to the house pulling the lines down to the ground. When our power line was pulled down to the ground, it bent the electric service mast on our roof to an almost 90 degree angle. We called Home Advisor who immediately connected us to Ted Connole of Connoleâ s Electric. Ted responded by saying that he would come out that afternoon and assess the damage. When Ted and his crew arrived, he told us that Eversource needed to disconnect the wires from the house and said that the tree had to be removed from the power lines. Since we were unable to contact Eversource due to massive outages in the state, we called Ted back and explained our predicament. Ted also attempted to contact them. Ted returned to our home with his crew and removed the wires from the house as well as removing and replacing the damaged electrical service mast from the roof, thereby; making it ready for Eversource to reconnect the power lines. From the very beginning, Ted treated us more like family than a customer in need. Ted and his crew were knowledgeable, efficient, and honest. Throughout this ordeal, Ted kept in constant contact inquiring about our safety and well-being. He also followed up with Eversourceâ s progress. He went above and beyond the norm. It is with this in mind, that I can whole-heartedly recommend Connoleâ s Electric Co."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Norfolk, CT

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.
