"Sarge has been great to work with. I originally hired him to replace an old Pushmatic panel so we could upgrade the kitchen electrical. Once my team started the kitchen remodel, they uncovered some issues with the old wiring. Even though it was outside his original scope, Sarge came back out, tracked everything down, and made sure it was safe and up to code. He goes above and beyond, and I’ll continue using him anytime the need arises. Highly recommend."

"Brett did an excellent job installing a Level 2 charger, running wire from basement all the way to the garage. He explained what he was going to do beforehand, answered my questions to my satisfaction. I would definitely hire him again."

"This is the 2nd time I have used Safe Electric and both times I have used them have been great experiences. I had 3 new fixtures installed plus a new circuit run to be used for a new freezer in our finished basement. Jon & Eric were the two electricians that were sent to my home. They worked efficiently and quickly, but did outstanding work. Even though our basement had a finished ceiling, they were able to run a wire through with minimal disruption to the finished ceiling. I had concerns about the alignment of the lights on the fixture (this was a manufacturing defect and nothing to do with their installation) and they obliged me by improving the light alignment. They also cleaned up after they were completed and disposed of the old light fixtures and packaging materials for the new fixtures. Their work was excellent. The only negative aspect was the price which seemed very high to me. The cost for installation of the 3 light fixtures was $462 and the new circuit was $903."

"Excellent experience from start to finish. He replaced two ceiling fans in separate bedrooms, and the work looks phenomenal. He arrived early, which was incredibly helpful with my work schedule, was professional and personable throughout, and completed the job much faster than I expected without any issues at all. Everything was installed flawlessly, cleanly, and with obvious attention to detail. Very polite, very professional, and genuinely easy to work with. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for quality electrical work, and I will definitely hire him again."

"We had a panel swap out. Bryan was quick to respond to my inquiry. He had to involve AEP and the city inspector on the day of the install. They did a great job and were very quick! I highly recommend anyone in need of electrical work to contact Steller Electric."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Powell, OH

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.
