Common Questions

Residential Electrical FAQs

Common questions from Triangle homeowners about residential electrical services. Don’t see yours? Call us directly — we’re happy to help.
How long does a typical whole-house electrical installation take?
Most standard home installations take three to five days. Time depends on square footage and complexity. We rough in the wiring while walls are open. Then we return for device installation after drywall. Larger homes over 3000 square feet may need an additional day or two. We coordinate our schedule with your general contractor to avoid delays.
Yes, we pull all required permits and schedule inspections with the local authority having jurisdiction. Our license allows us to obtain permits in most counties without homeowner involvement. We stay onsite during inspections. Any concerns the inspector raises get addressed immediately. You receive copies of all approved inspection documents for your records.
We typically install 200-amp services for homes up to 3500 square feet with standard appliances. Larger homes often need 400-amp services. Properties with workshops, EV chargers, and electric heating also need more capacity. We perform a complete load calculation per NEC Article 220 to determine the correct size. This prevents nuisance tripping and allows for future additions.
We specialize in retrofit work where existing wiring needs complete replacement. Older buildings often have inadequate grounding and undersized conductors. These cannot support modern loads safely. We fish new wire through finished walls when possible. Surface mount in conduit works where necessary. Our goal is maximum safety with minimal damage to existing finishes.
We install copper Romex for most residential branch circuits. THHN in conduit gets used for commercial work. All conductors are sized according to the connected load. We apply appropriate derating for temperature and bundling. We never use aluminum wire for branch circuits due to connection reliability issues. Our materials come from authorized distributors with proper UL listings.

Yes, we install three-phase services from 208V to 480V for commercial and industrial customers. This requires coordination with the utility company for transformer installation and metering. We size the service entrance conductors and disconnect based on the connected motor loads and other equipment. Most installations include a step-down transformer for standard 120V convenience outlets.
