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Circuit panels may need an upgrade because they're outdated, don't have enough circuits, or you've done an addition or added additional features to your home that require more circuits.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!

08/25 Arrived onsite where we were given the sticker for the inspection corrections needed. We spoke to the homeowners about what would be required to update the other half of the service to modern safety standards, that is being asked of us by the inspector. We will have to add a disconnect for the 125amp line, as well as update grounding, and add a whole home surge protector to the existing cutler hammer panel as well. We will relocate the phone box to the front corner of the house, and pad the wall outside to go over the existing grounding, fiber, and phone lines that are already run. We will return 8/28 to complete this work and fulfill what the inspector is asking of the job. Deposit taken today Returned on 8/28 today and i started inside and Tyler started outside. We had to move the phone box and redo the strapping for the grounds but we were able to fit the 100amp disconnect on the same wall. Tyler worked on the grounding and once we got outside far enough, i came inside and
Arrived onsite and the resident is a big diy guy in terms of replacing all his devices, but told us he noticed the wiring looked messy and potentially wasn’t right behind the dining room switches. We opened up the gangbox and the splices were messy, the dimmer has a black mark on it where it burnt somewhere in it life, and the splices weren’t all that good either. I discussed completely re-tying in the gangbox and installing a new single pole switch along with his smart switch he provided as well and he liked that idea. Both switches will be customer supplied and wont be covered by warranty. After we discussed that he took us down to the panel and showed me around and there is water pipes hanging in front of the panel, all put together with sharkbites. The panel had a ton of surface rust and it was also clear water had ran through it at one point because there was rust dripping out the bottom of the panel and down the wall. He is going to call the plumber out to have that all secured
Replace GFCI in upstairs hallway bathroom and receptacle in 1st floor bathroom with new GFCI and duplex. Install new gfci devices on the kitchen counter top due to safety of within 6 ft of water source. Called out today to troubleshoot a receptacle that was not working in the first floor bathroom. Discovered that the GFCI in the upstairs bathroom was tripped. While doing our safety assessment we discovered that two of the kitchen receptacles were not GFCI protected. We recommended replacing the bathroom devices and adding GFCI protection to the kitchen. Replaced GFCI in upstairs hallway bathroom and receptacle in 1st floor bathroom. Replaced two GFCIs and a receptacle in the kitchen.
-GFCI Replacement - V.I.P Membership Reason for today’s visit with the customer was a loss of power in the garage. Upon arrival I tested the first receptacle in the garage and discovered 0 Volts. This led me to tracing out the wires into the master bathroom. Upon removal of the GFCI the wires popped out of the back. Additionally, the wiring for this GFCI was extremely sloppy with almost 5 inches of romex sheathing in the box. When testing the wires there was still 0 Volts. This led me to go into the other neighboring bathroom that had a tripped GFCI. I reset it but it did not send power to the master GFCI. I would later learn that this neighbor bathroom GFCI is on an entirely different circuit. I continued my adventures looking for GFCI’s. This led me downstairs to the basement bathroom. In there was A GFCI that was tripped. I reset this one as well. In that same basement bathroom was a sump pump on a GFCI underneath a latch. This GFCI was not tripped. The panel is an older CH. Cust
Reason for today’s visit with the customer was to inspect and quote installation of three bath fans. Upon arrival customer was complaining of a constant muggy / mildew smell coming from the bathrooms that started this year. After investigation I discovered the upstairs bathroom fans were 110 CFM and had proper venting going through the roof. The foyer bathroom although older still worked but this bathroom did not have a source of high humidity. After conferring with the owner and discussing we agreed that there was a high probability something deeper going on here than the bathroom fans. At this point we recommend reaching out to an inspector or someone who can do thermal scans of the wall to make sure there isn’t a leak or potential growth going on inside the home. I provided quotes to replace all three bathroom fans while I was here.
