"Very professional, clean and easy to work with. Marty dug a trench for underground wiring and gas line taking care to preserve and put back the landscaping in the path of the trench. Installed the panel for the critical service item identified and helped with finding those circuits on the current panel. Quoted several options that were helpful."

"Very professional work. They installed the breaker panel, outlets, lighting and mini-split in our newly constructed garage/workshop. The work they did was so good we had them come back and install another mini-split in our home basement. We highly recommend them!"

Customers say: True professional

"Scott is excellent to work with in all aspects of electrical. I am a general contractor and Moses Electric has done all my electrical for the past 12yrs. I look to no one else. From the non working outlet or switch, to service upgrades, underground work, data, fire alarm panels, low voltage, new construction, remodeling, troubleshooting, all the way to 3 phase industrial and commercial work. Scott has been along side me for all aspects of the electrical work and never skipped a beat. I have full confidence to refer Moses Electric to my own clients, friends and family. Knowing when I pass his name along it will not come back to me with a negative effect. Always happy clients every time, in addition to being clean in all aspects of presentation and workmanship. I am not biased because I am in the trades. We rely on referrals and relationships to provide our living so there is no benefit to saying what isn't true. I highly recommend Scott and Moses Electric for any of your electrical needs. He makes the process easy and seamless."

Aside from the excellent service, the qualities I appreciate the most is honesty for what work needs to be done and how Tyler is also very budget consciousness."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Rye, NH

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.
