Your local choice for garage electrical installation in Copper Harbor, MI

Many buildings around Copper Harbor date from the mining and logging years, and their wiring has been added to by several generations of owners. Our electricians serving Keweenaw County are used to opening a box and finding three eras of wiring inside. For garage electrical installation in Copper Harbor, we sort out what is sound, what needs replacing and what the job will take before work begins.

Wiring a detached garage or pole barn

Bringing power to a separate building means running a feeder underground, setting a sub panel with its own grounding electrodes and sizing everything for what the building will eventually hold. It pays to think ahead: a 60 or 100 amp feeder costs little more to install than a 30 amp one and saves digging a second trench later. For Copper Harbor properties we also plan around frost depth, driveways and septic fields.
