Country homes and outbuildings
When the service entrance is far from the panel or a workshop, cable length and size matter. We measure, calculate and explain the choice before the work.

Useful guides
5 min readGenerators and transfer switches: powering your house safely during an outagePlugging a generator into a house outlet with a double male-ended cable is dangerous and prohibited: the power flows back into the grid and can kill a line worker. The right way: a transfer switch, or a panel interlock, and an outdoor power inlet, installed by an electrician. Then the essential circuits are chosen based on the generator’s output.Read the guide 6 min readThe load calculation: is your 100 A enough before you buy an EV charger, a heat pump or a hot tub?The load calculation adds up what your house draws from the grid, following the Code. It tells you whether your 100 A service is enough, or whether you need a sub-panel, load management or a 200 A upgrade. It’s done before adding an EV charger, a heat pump or a hot tub, never after.Read the guide 5 min readUnderground or overhead service entrance: how to choose for a new house or a service to redoThe utility’s cable arrives either through a mast on the roof (overhead) or through a trench (underground). Overhead is simpler to install; underground is invisible and safe from branches, but needs a trench, conduits and close coordination. The choice depends on the lot, what the utility offers on your street and your priorities.Read the guide
