The process of an electrical service upgrade is very simple. As quality Maryland electrical contractors, we take care of all required permits and inspections with local Governments, to insure a proper installation that operates safely. The process is as follows:

  1. Permits are pulled.
  2. The power to the home is disconnected as the old equipment is removed and the new equipment is installed.
  3. The electrical inspection can be scheduled as soon as the next business day.
  4. We schedule the utility company to make the permanent connections to your electric meter.

The total time that your home is without power is approximately 4 hours. Electrical service upgrades and installations are completed in one day.
