"Michael Brandt is very knowledgeable, he explained my options, and worked quickly to upgrade the breakers in my panel. He installed a whole house surge protector to my panel, and also a surge protector to my AC unit. I have a tricky light fixture in the front yard, he will be back on Monday with the parts to repair it. In the future if I have any electrical needs, I will definitely call Mr. Sparky."

"T.E.C. Electric was outstanding , professional, communicated with me through the process and affordable. Rodney came out to assess a main breaker panel replacement for my home that was built in 1984. He found the main breaker was starting to fail which was causing power issues without tripping any breakers. The issue was causing certain half the panel to sporadically lose power and come back on randomly. He recommended replacing the whole panel and informed me what the process would require regarding permits, coordinating with APS and the City. All went smooth and the work was excellent. I would definitely hire T.E.C. Electric again. This is a owner operator company and the work is done by code and completed in a professional manner. Definitely 5 stars for this company. Thank you Rodney!! Also thank you Angie for having this Company on your list. Don Hestand/ Glendale"

"Static Sun did an amazing job on my electrical panel. They found a breaker burning in the panel and went through all the options with me to fix the problem. They were on time and cleaned up after themselves as well. I highly recommend them!"

"Jason and his staff (Julie in the office and Robert an electrician) did a fabulous job for us installing a new panel, two sub-panels, improving service in our old kitchen (couldn't run the dishwasher and microwave at the same time) a new porch light, and a car charger. Our house was built in 1938 and has 3 phase electricity. That was complicated by the fact that we were with APS that usually handles 2 phase, so there was a lot of coordination that had to take place. Jason was most professional and worked hard to minimize the disruption of service. He worked well with APS and the City of Phoenix in coordinating the inspections and scheduling the work. Robert got up in our cramped and hot attic to provide the additional service to the kitchen. This is an honest 5 Star review. I can't recommend Static Sun highly enough. Jason was on time, was neat and clean, and left the job site in perfect order. I believe that we were fairly charged and he was up front in telling us that he would not be the most expensive but he wouldn't be the cheapest either. The other electrician we consulted (who was highly recommended by our neighbors) declined the job as being too complex."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Tempe, AZ

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.
