"We recently had Mega Power Electric Inc install a solar system and panels. The President and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. He even met with us after installation to explain the almost incomprehensible PG&E bill. Although not the least expensive bid, his was competitive and I felt he was as interested in educating me about solar and the various types of panels and inverter systems as he was in selling a system. He demonstrated how the array of panels would meet our energy needs and as opposed to some of the other companies, wasn't selling us more than we needed. We are very satisfied with our solar system and I highly recommended Mega Power Electric Inc."

"Greg was amazing to work with. He added some lights to some of the new rooms in our house and he mapped out the basement us to know what we should expect when we’re ready to finish it. He’s very knowledgeable and really wants to do right by his customers. Peak Energy is the only company I’ll have do electrical work on my house. Give them a shot. You won’t regret it."

"Danny is very honest. He explained to me the electrical work I wanted done was out of his scope of expertise. He went on to say that most electricians would probably tell me the same thing. I appreciate Danny's honesty and will definitely have him do work for me in the near future."

"Nick was great.  I phoned him in the morning and even though they are tremendously busy this time of year he and another fellow went out of their way and came by around 5:30 PM to fix my wiring.  I had checked other electricians but all were so busy they couldn't do anything before the 24th of Dec. or so.  He is very personable and professional and got the job done in less than an hour.  It really pays to know what you are doing because I didn't have a clue with this wiring problem.

"Neil, the sales rep, was knowledgeable and trustworthy. He fitted us with the exactly the right system for our needs. ILUM was quick to install the panels and they did an excellent job with the workmanship. The installers were very nice and professional. They helped push the PGE paperwork through in an expedite manner. I definitely recommend them."

"Do make sure you and your contractor understand each other and explain exactly what you need and want.  Most often
old homes will have problems with dry rot, termites, old electrical and a good contractor lets you know you have these problems and will give you an estimate of what it will cost to fix them.  My opinion is if you are going to have a job done you should not mask problems.  We were fortunate not to have had dry rot.  The bones of our house was in very good condition.  However, our electrical panel was going to need replacing.  If you have your home already open to reside or whatever you are doing the extra time and cost is worth it. 

Do check for licesne that is current.  No what type of permits will be needed."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Strawberry-valley, CA

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.
