Kitchen Electrical Upgrade for Dorr homes and businesses

Dorr is in Allegan County in West Michigan, where lake-effect snow off Lake Michigan and humid summers both take a toll on electrical equipment. The area has everything from century-old farmhouses to fast-growing subdivisions, and kitchen electrical upgrades can look a little different in each. We start by learning what your building has now.

What a modern kitchen needs electrically

A current-code kitchen typically has seven or more circuits. Countertops alone need two 20 amp circuits, and each fixed appliance gets its own. Switching from a gas range to induction means a new 240 volt circuit, often 40 or 50 amps. Many Dorr kitchens built before the 1980s run on two or three circuits total, which is why upgrades so often begin at the panel.
