Kitchen Electrical Upgrade for Somerset homes and businesses

Somerset is in Hillsdale County in Mid-Michigan, where the housing mix runs from farmhouses and mid-century ranches to student rentals and new subdivisions. Each has its own typical electrical problems. For kitchen electrical upgrades in Somerset, we begin with the panel and service, since that is where most limitations show up.

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 Somerset kitchens built before the 1980s run on two or three circuits total, which is why upgrades so often begin at the panel.
