"I spent 6 months and listened to BS from 4 other electricians to get a simple service upgrade done. This guy had it done in under 2 weeks from estimate to complete. If I need other electric work done I know where I'm coming first next time! Thanks Guys!"

"I had a microwave high voltage transformer fail and parts were not longer available. The microwave was on a range hood fan circuit which also powered a lighting circuit. Instead of the 250 watt fan it replaced under a previous owner, the microwave pulled 1700-1900 watts The circuit also had lighting loads and a bathroom fan. The circuit load caused excessive voltage drop during every use (bathroom fan slowed down). Depending upon what was turned on the circuit breaker tripped, usually during family gatherings, about 5 times per year. The microwave was covered by my home repair warranty and a new microwave circuit from the panelboard had to be paid for separately. Keeler Electric had a good price for the new microwave circuit (I got about 5 bids) and I found out that Keeler could also do the installation of the microwave under the home warranty. Since the new microwave circuit needed to have a new circuit breaker installed, I took the opportunity to have some modifications to the panelboard done - relocation of a GFCI receptacle and extension of a plug-in transformer power cord that drove my cable television splitter box . Finally, the existing microwave receptacle was hidden IN THE WALL behind the cabinet above the microwave. The new circuit has the receptacle in the back wall of the cabinet for easy replacement of the microwave when needed in the distant future. The craftsman worked most of the day and completed all the work in a very professional manner -- all in one trip. If I had to use different contractors for the different work components multiple trips would have been needed. I am a retired Air Force facility engineering officer and I have done design and construction management in 4 countries outside the United States after I left military service. I monitored all work performed and I would definitely ask Keeler Electric for a quote on any future electrical work I may need."

"The contractor was excellent. We signed the contract on September 11, 2015 and the system was fully operational on November 20, 2015.  My house is all electric,( heat pump, well pump, the works ).  Over the winter our highest bill was $ 220.00. Over the summer most bills were about $9.00. One month, AEP actually owed us $15.00.  Given the size of our house (1400 sq. ft.) and our usage, we expect to reach break even in 4.5 years.  Given that the panels are good for 25 years, I'll realize a profit for 20.5 years. This means panels are actually going to be earning money for me? Getting solar panels is a no brainer.


I whole heartedly recommend RES."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Schuylkill Haven, PA

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.
