Sub panel installation in Carteret: common questions

Does a sub panel add capacity to my house?

No. It adds breaker spaces, not amps. If the service itself is too small, the fix is a service upgrade.

Can a sub panel go in a detached garage?

Yes. It needs a properly sized feeder, a disconnect and its own grounding.

How far can it be from the main panel?

As far as needed. For long runs we size the wire up to limit voltage drop.

What customers say

Our old 100 amp panel was full and warm. They upgraded us to 200 amps in one day, labeled every breaker and dealt with the utility and the inspection. Power was back before dinner.
James K., Toms River

We had an inspection done before buying a 1920s house. The report was clear about what was urgent and what could wait, and nobody pushed us to do any of it.
Susan B., Princeton

Half the house went dark on a Sunday night. They picked up on the second ring, told me which breaker to switch off and had someone here that evening. It was a burnt connection in the panel, fixed on the spot.
