Here is some before and after photos of a recent electrical service upgrade.
Customer wanted to upgrade just the basement panel however I pointed out that the exterior service entrance cable was failing and it wouldn't be long until it started to allow water in and then into the brand new panel (if I were to only replace the basement panel), thus destroying the brand new panel and potentially causing a fire!
Beware of only replacing a panel box without inspecting the entire exterior service entrance!

Also added in a whole house surge protector as well to the main panel box; to protect the house from general electrical surges originating outside and inside of the house.

Replaced old worn out cable with conductors in pvc conduit for better safety and longevity.

Jason and I had a fun time helping a local customer in Troy remove a kitchen exhaust hood. Definitely not something that we would normally get ourselves into and so it was intriguing!

Recently did a garage sub feed panel; the wire had been previously ran to the garage but not ran to the indoor main panel.
It was a fun, quick and simple job. While there, I found a code, violation and safety issue with a multi wire circuit, neutral sharing. Both conductors were on the same phase, so current being used on each circuit leg would be added together and sent back on the neutral, going off of the rating of the circuit breakers. This would be up to 40 Amps on the 12awg wire that is only rated for 20 Amps. Also code requires that multi wire circuits shall be simultaneously disconnected.
So, to fix this, I promptly contacted the homeowner and advised immediate action to remedy situation; which he agreed to. It was not a difficult fix; just had to swap out some breakers to meet code and safety standards.

It's imperative to hire somebody who is trained in proper electrical code, and safety. Trust a trained professional to do your electrical work!
