Garage Power Upgrade & Future Preparation
Budget: $250 – $750 USD
Home owner, I am seeking an experienced electrician to design/specify new circuits after a panel upgrade from 100A to 200A (done recently- stucco wall still open). This task requires careful consideration on how we can prepare for the addition of future circuits before stuccoing the exterior wall again- as well as designing the circuits. This would include a subpanel in the garage. Work to be done by myself, a 50-year veteran truck and car mechanic, welder, and general DIY guy.
Key Details:
- The primary goal for this upgrade and the garage subpanel is to meet increased power demand and lay groundwork for adding new circuits in the future.
- I anticipate needing 7 or more extra circuits for future use.
- I am interested in adding a Level 2 car charger in the garage for personal use.
Ideal Skills:
The perfect candidate for this project would have significant electrical engineering experience, especially in panel upgrades. They should also possess a thorough understanding of domestic power demands and how to efficiently design circuits for a garage set-up. Knowledge of the installation process for car chargers, particularly Level 2, is also crucial. I look forward to collaborating with someone who can consult on the best methods to prepare for future circuit additions prior to re-stuccoing the exterior wall.
I will provide extensive details as needed.
