Our team at Haas and Sons can help you gather the correct unit, install the dedicated circuit where its convenient for you to charge your car, and provide information for obtaining your permit.

Circuit Panel Upgrade or Heavy Up Additions
A heavy-up circuit is a type of electrical circuit that is designed to handle a higher electrical load than a standard electrical circuit. This is typically achieved by increasing the size of the conductors and equipment used in the circuit, such as the wires, switches, and breakers. Heavy-up circuits are used in home-based businesses or for home hobbyists where there is a need for a large amount of electrical power to support machinery, lighting, or other high-demand equipment. The term "heavy-up" refers to the process of upgrading an existing electrical circuit to handle a higher electrical load.
Circuit panels may need an upgrade because they're outdated, don't have enough circuits, or you've done an addition or added additional features to your home that require more circuits. Installing a pool or hot tub are just 2 examples of upgrades that might require an update to your circuit panel. We also install circuit panels for new construction of Additional Dwelling Units (ADUs) and other residential buildings.
Dedicated circuits
There are other reasons to have a dedicated circuit besides the electric car charger mentioned above. You may be installing a pool or hot tub that requires its own circuit for safety or code requirements. If you've noticed issues like a hot tub plug getting hot, it could be a sign that your current setup isn’t handling the load safely. .You may be running power down to your outbuildings, or adding air conditioning or an electric stove to your home where you had none previously. There are a variety of reasons you may need a dedicated circuit - our team of licensed electricians near you can help you make the need a reality!

The reason for today’s visit was to complete the annual VIP maintenance inspection and to replace an exterior floodlight. When I arrived, I met with Ms. Karen, who showed me to the main panel in the garage. I ensured the tightness of each termination in the panel and performed thermal scans, and noticed a few concerns. In the subpanel to the left of the main electrical panel, I found double-tapped connections on a breaker feeding two circuits simultaneously as well as combined neutrals & grounds, and the feeder for the subpanel had been damaged when installed in the main panel, there is also no wire connector in the main electrical panel for this feeder. There is no whole home surge protection present, and no ground rods outside. The only grounding in the home is at the main cold water line entering the home, which is corroded and the clamp should be replaced to ensure the home has a secure grounding connection. I went throughout the home and found a mixture of original devices that we
Today’s visit was for a return to install under cabinet strip lights, replacement of a light fixture, and moving a light and box in the bathroom to center it to the sink.

Replace recess cans with 6 inch recess lights throughout the dining room, first floor hallways, and kitchen (For total of 8 lights) Called out today to investigate recess cans that were flickering and not working. One recess can in the kitchen was turning on and off intermittently, and another recess can in the dining room had a bad bulb. Due to the flickering and the light turning off, we recommended replacing the recess can with a recess light. We recommended replacing the recess cans in the dining room, hallway, and kitchen as well so they will match with the new recess light. Customer agreed to replace all 8 recess cans with recess lights. Will Return Tuesday, 9/22 to complete work. (9/22) Returned today to complete work per quote. Cut out old recess cans and installed new recess wafer lights. Installed “goof” rings due to holes left my the recess cans. Recess lights set to 3000K and 1000 lumens.
Called out today to give solutions for installing a customer supplied EV charger. Main Electrical panel is in the garage. Panel is a CH 24 space 200 amp panel from approximately 1985, with no more space to add additional circuits, and the panel is not rated for tandem breakers. Due to this, we would either have to set a subpanel next the main panel and extend circuits to it, or install a larger main electrical panel. All quoted work includes pulling Howard county electrical permit.

Tyler was very through and explained everything he found.
Very knowledgeable
Haas staff notified me of their intended arrival, and brought the correct light for replacement with them. They completed the job quickly and I am very satisfied with the result.
Ray installed a ceiling outlet and fan surprisingly quickly. With skill and persistence, he installed the wiring by going into a limited-space attic, thereby avoiding the need to make unsightly cuts into the room's wall and ceiling. He was careful to follow code and properly interconnect the new wiring to the house's 1969 aluminum wiring. He also installed a new 240-volt outlet in our garage, with a new cable from the main breaker box, maintaining care to minimize cuts into the drywall. He cleaned up thoroughly afterwards and explained all aspects of his service, including the need to install new circuit breakers for safety measures. His service was definitely over the top. Highly recommended.
Tyler is knowledgeable, and took no time at all to determine why my light wasn't coming on. 4 stars only because of the price.
Tray provided excellent service! He was professional and went over how he could accomplish my request to have ceiling lights replaced, a hanging utility light replaced and several light switches. He answered all my questions thoroughly and in a way I understood. He was helpful in problem solving one issue related to the installation of the utility light with a great outcome. The estimate he provided was clear and a reasonable price. The completed work looks great and I am very happy with the work Tray did today.
