"Jim with Plugged In Electric tackled our work like a true professional. We needed a service upgrade from the original construction standards of the 1970s, to facilitate the installation of an electric vehicle charger. Jim handled all the permits and coordination with TEP. He also found non-code wiring of our heat pump that was placing excessive load on the breakers resulting in a very real fire risk. All of the work was done in a timely and professional manner. I highly recommend Plugged In Electric for professional service and quality workmanship."

"Roger C Collins, Electrical Services Inc. – Angi’s Review Electrical Project Overview – Remove, replace, and consolidate the main electrical power panel and two adjacent electrical sub-panels into a single electrical power panel. Project review - Shortly after posting the project description for my Electrical Project on Angi’s, I received a text message and phone call from Roger C. Collins. He asked if he could drop by to speak with me and obtain more details about my project. Later that same day, Roger met with me, examined the panels, and explained the required steps in the process to perform this job. Roger was very knowledgeable about the sordid history and issues with main electrical panel and circuit breakers which were manufactured by Federal Pacific Electric. This project required the following sequential steps be performed: 1. Confirmation from the Electric Company that the existing service feed was sufficient to provide power to the desired rating of the replacement panel. 2. Selection of a new power panel which was approved by the Electric Company for use as a replacement panel. 3. Application and approval of a Building Permit to perform the project. 4. Schedule with the Electric Company, a shut off date and time. 5. Remove the existing electrical panels and consolidate all the circuits into the new electrical power panel. 6. Coordinate an Electrical Inspection to allow the Electric Company to restore electrical power to my home. Roger and two other Angi Electrical Contractors also provided bids for this project. Roger’s bid was competitive with the others. My primary reason for selecting Roger was his extensive knowledge about the sordid history and issues with Federal Pacific Electric products. It also needs to be noted that Roger’s wife, Monica, did an outstanding job of interfacing and coordinating with the Electric Company and Building Permits Department. On the day this project was started, everything was well coordinated and orchestrated. The Power Company showed up at 7:45 am sharp to turn off the power. As soon as the power had been turned off, Roger and his two Electrician Assistants began the process of removing the existing power panel and two sub-panels. All was going well until a terminal lug on the almost 50-year-old meter box broke off while installing a new feed wire. My Father always told me that sometimes, things don’t always work out the way you planned and when that happens you need to adapt and overcome to get the job done. And that’s exactly what Roger and his Assistants did. While Roger & his Assistant Electrician continued with installing the new Electrical Panel, his other Assistant Electrician went off to obtain a new meter box. Shortly after returning with the new meter box, the new feed was installed, and the project had reached a point where an inspection needed to be performed for the Electric Company to restore power. Thanks to the wonders of Technology, the Inspection was performed using FaceTime. The Building Inspector was pleased and provided the Electric Company with authorization to turn the power back on. By 5:30 pm, as the sun was setting, Roger and his two Electrician Assistants had completed my project and cleaned up after themselves. I considered this to be a major accomplishment. Without question, Roger’s 30 plus years of experience was a key factor in the success of my project. Roger and his Team were fantastic. He did exactly what he said he would do and got the job done within the timeframe he had projected. If you are looking for a well-qualified and experienced Electrician, Roger is the one you want working on your project. If you should have any questions about this review, please feel free to contact me."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Tucson, 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.
