A country home getting updated
Many country houses still have a 100 A service, sometimes less. A heat pump, a charger or a workshop can exceed what it allows. The load calculation tells what is possible; then we propose the work in the right order.

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 readUpgrading from 100 A to 200 A: when it’s needed and how it goesUpgrading from 100 A to 200 A becomes necessary when the Code’s load calculation exceeds what the service can supply: electric heating, an EV charger, a heat pump, a hot tub. Here is what the calculation counts, the solutions that sometimes avoid the work, what the 2026 Code changes and how it goes, from the request to the utility to the power coming back on.Read the guide 6 min readHooking up a heat pump: what the electrician checks first, and whyBefore hooking up a heat pump, the electrician checks three things: the unit’s nameplate, which sets the circuit size; your service’s capacity, through the load calculation; and the location of the disconnect, within sight and within 3 m of the outdoor unit. With electric backup heat, the load climbs fast.Read the guide
