"Needed electric service run from the breaker panel in my house to a newly installed workshop in back of my house. They ran the service and installed a sub-panel, 6 outlets, 3 overhead junction boxes, and 2 junction boxes for outdoor lighting. They gave me a good quote and did the installation in 1 day. Arrived when they said they would and performed quality work. Very pleased with the installation. I would definitely hire these guys again."

"Very good. Change over to the LED was quickly done and very improved lighting. Reasonable price and very efficient. Because we were impressed with the work, we also had Destiny Electric install an exhaust fan in the master bathroom where none was present. Work crew arrived at appointed time and efficiently installed the new fan in very reasonable time and at reasonable price. We would have Destiny Electric handled any future electrical at our home."

"My 30 year old power pole decided to fall on a Friday afternoon, close to 4pm, ON VALENTINES DAY. I found FUSED ELECTRIC via a Google search for nearby Electricians. I called and not only did he answer but was willing to come out immediately to make sure there were no safety issues. Fortunately the power company had already cut off the power. They came out Saturday morning and completed the job early enough that the power company was able to restore power the same day. Great job, fair price even for a weekend job. No complaints."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Jacksonville, FL

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.
