Electrical Services

400 Amp electrical service with a transfer switch is typically used for large residential properties, commercial buildings, or industrial applications where high power demand is expected. The transfer switch allows for seamless switching between the utility power and a backup generator, ensuring an uninterrupted power supply during outages. This setup also requires careful planning and installation by a qualified electrician to meet local codes and safety standards. If you need more specific details or have questions about installation or components, feel free to ask! 

200 amp service refers to the capacity of an electrical service panel, which can supply a maximum of 200 amps of electrical current to a property. This type of service is commonly found in modern homes, allowing for the use of multiple high-demand appliances and systems, such as central air conditioning, electric heating, and various electronic devices. It ensures that the electrical system can handle the load required for contemporary living while maintaining safety and efficiency.

 Electrical sub panels are secondary service panels that distribute electricity to specific areas of a building. They are typically used to reduce the electrical load on the main service panel, allowing for better management of electrical circuits. Sub panels can help organize electrical systems more efficiently, making it easier to add circuits for new appliances or setups. They are especially useful in larger homes or commercial buildings where the demand for electricity is higher.  Some key points about electrical sub panels include: 

 1. **Installation**: Sub panels should be installed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance with local electrical codes. 

 2. **Capacity**: Each sub panel has a specific amperage rating, which determines how much electrical load it can handle. It’s important to choose a sub panel that meets the power requirements of the area it serves.

  3. **Location**: Sub panels can be placed in different areas of the home or building, such as the basement, garage, or near outdoor spaces, to effectively manage power distribution. 

 4. **Circuit Breakers**: Like main panels, sub panels contain circuit breakers that protect the electrical circuits. They allow for easy turning on and off of specific circuits without affecting the entire system. 

 5. **Uses**: They are frequently used in situations where additional power is needed, such as in workshops, garages, or for outdoor lighting and power tools.  If you need more detailed information or have specific questions about electrical sub panels, feel free to ask!
