Project planning
Electrical Service Planning Guides
These guides help prepare the conversation. A site visit and electrical testing still determine the actual scope.
Panel space is not the same as electrical capacity
Empty breaker positions do not prove the service can support an EV, addition, or major appliance. The total load still matters.
Panel and service upgradesInformation to collect before buying a charger
Vehicle model, charger model, parking location, panel photos, cable length, and preferred mounting location all help define the route.
EV charger installationPlan the control, not only the fixture
Fixture weight, dimming, color temperature, switching locations, ceiling type, and room use affect the finished lighting result.
Lighting installationElectrical decisions to make before walls close
Appliance loads, cabinet layouts, furniture, exterior needs, low-voltage paths, lighting zones, and future equipment belong in the early plan.
Remodel electrical workList the loads you need during an outage
Refrigeration, sump pumps, heat, medical devices, internet, lighting, and business-critical equipment form the starting load list.
Generator and backup powerNext step
Request an Electrical Estimate
Send the project location and a clear description of the repair or installation. AGE Electric will confirm what else is needed for an estimate or site visit.
