FAQs
What kinds of new electrical systems can you install in Heiskell homes and businesses?
We handle complete electrical system installations for residential, commercial, light-industrial, and agricultural facilities. That includes new service entrances, main panels, sub-panels, branch-circuit wiring, lighting circuits, EV chargers, backup generators, solar PV tie-ins, data/low-voltage cabling, and intelligent control systems. Whether you’re building from the ground up or adding a major addition, we can design and install everything necessary to bring safe, code-compliant power to the space.
How do you determine the correct service size and circuit layout for my project?
We start with a load calculation that factors in square footage, appliance wattage, HVAC equipment, lighting density, and any specialty loads such as welders or EV chargers. Using NEC Article 220 and local utility requirements, we size the main service, feeder conductors, and over-current protection. Then we map out circuits to balance loads across phases, minimize voltage drop, and allow future expansion. You receive a detailed proposal and one-line diagram before any work begins.
Do you take care of permits and inspections in Heiskell and Knox County?
Yes. All new system installations require an electrical permit and rough/final inspections. We submit the permit application, provide load studies or engineered drawings if requested, coordinate utility disconnect/reconnects, and meet the inspector on-site. Our familiarity with Knox County codes and inspectors helps keep the project on schedule and eliminates paperwork headaches for you.
Will my power be disrupted during the installation, and how long will the job take?
For new construction, the service is energized only after the rough-in and final inspections, so there’s no disruption. For remodels or panel upgrades, we plan a controlled outage—usually 2–6 hours—scheduled at your convenience. Typical single-family rough-in takes 1–3 days; service upgrades 4–8 hours; small commercial build-outs 3–5 days. We give you a realistic timeline up front and keep you updated if anything changes.
Are your electricians licensed, insured, and trained on current electrical codes?
Absolutely. All field electricians hold Tennessee journeyman or master licenses, complete annual NEC update courses, and carry OSHA-10 or OSHA-30 safety certifications. The company maintains $2 million in general liability and full workers' compensation. Every installation is performed to the latest NEC edition, local amendments, and utility service rules, ensuring safety and compliance.
What will the installation cost and what warranties do you offer?
Pricing depends on service size, circuit count, equipment selected, wiring method (Romex vs conduit), and site accessibility. After a site visit, we provide a fixed-price quote that details labor, materials, permit fees, and optional upgrades. There are no hidden charges. All workmanship is warranted for 2 years, and major components—panels, breakers, generators—carry manufacturer warranties of 5–10 years. Post-installation, we offer affordable maintenance plans and 24/7 emergency support.
