Garage electrical installation in Somerset: local conditions matter

Mid-Michigan is served mainly by Consumers Energy, along with DTE Energy, the Lansing Board of Water and Light and a number of municipal utilities. Whichever one supplies your address in Somerset, we know the requirements for service work, which keeps garage electrical installation in Hillsdale County straightforward.

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 Somerset properties we also plan around frost depth, driveways and septic fields.
