Open country and lake winds make the Thumb hard on overhead lines. Customers in Smiths Creek know what a long outage means for sump pumps, freezers and livestock water. We keep reliability front of mind for garage electrical installation in St. Clair County.
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 Smiths Creek properties we also plan around frost depth, driveways and septic fields.
