"I received a call from them to talk about my project to install an electric vehicle charging outlet at 10:45 am. They came to my home at 12:30 to give a bid. The bid was very reasonable, did the work immediately and was done by 3:30 that afternoon. Amazing job very well-done, very professional. Will definitely use them again, and will recommend them to anyone!"

"By far the best value for the work done. Everything was done within a few hours and the new panel works great. Even though they had to drill some new holes for the panel, it was done well and is overall very clean looking. I will always be recommending them for any electrical work to my friends, and will be sure to use them in the future."

"This master electrician showed up On time, with a skilled partner, understood immediately what I wanted and how best to do it. The measuring was expert because after they left we stared at everything and were impressed by the level hardware on the walls. Everything was even and accurately installed. If I changed my mind during the process and wanted it moved, there was complete acceptance of my thought process and it was completed quickly. The mood was positive, the work was awesome, the communication was clear and the price was fair. My list was so complicated that two other electricians no-showed me three times each trying to blow me off but not this team. They kept both appointments and stayed until it got finished. I would definitely re-hire Mr. Williams and recommend him to everyone in need of small projects or large."

"I hired Jeff to wire my entire basement with a panel upgrade. Not only was he very professional, but he is honest and very kind as well. He did a great job. Also I had him wire an outlet for my trailer outside. So when my neighbor?s nee needed an electrician I called him. And he found a burnt outlet which could have caused a fire. He replaced it for them. I will definitely be calling him for all of my electrical needs. "

"The contractor arrived promptly at a respectable hour in the morning. Cleanly extracted the old panel and service box as cleanly as the materials would allow. The Contractor also cleaned up any mess that was produced by the job. All of my expectations were met. I would hire them again. Another thing that impressed me was this contractor checked with Rocky Mountain Power first to make certain trenching was required."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Salt Lake City, UT

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.
