How Service Upgrades Support Larger Electrical Demands
When you arrange an electric service upgrade in Pinckneyville, the electrician installs larger service entrance cables, replaces the meter base, and upgrades the main disconnect and panel to handle increased amperage. You see the use of wire pulling equipment, torque wrenches for secure connections, and testing instruments that verify proper voltage and grounding at the new service entrance.
After the service upgrade is complete, your electrical system supports additional circuits without voltage drops, operates reliably under higher loads, and provides stable power to equipment that previously caused performance issues. Your property can accommodate renovations, new appliances, or commercial equipment without exceeding service capacity or creating hazards at overloaded connections.
The service includes work from the meter base to your main panel and does not cover utility line upgrades beyond your property line or interior wiring changes unrelated to service capacity. You receive a system that meets current electrical codes and handles the power demands typical in expanded Pinckneyville homes and businesses, whether you need service for residential additions or commercial equipment installations.
Service Upgrades Involve Coordination and Planning
Property owners in Pinckneyville often ask about utility coordination, service sizing, and how long power remains off during service upgrades before scheduling this work.
Most home additions require service upgrades to 200 amps if your current service is 100 amps or smaller, especially when the addition includes HVAC systems, appliances, or dedicated circuits for equipment. Kuhnert Electric & General Maintenance calculates load requirements and recommends service sizes that support your expansion in Pinckneyville.
Utility companies must disconnect power at the meter and verify that exterior equipment can support your upgraded service capacity before reconnection occurs. Kuhnert Electric & General Maintenance handles this coordination in Pinckneyville to schedule utility work alongside panel and service entrance installation.
