Electrical for homes in Highlands
It is known for Arts and Crafts era homes from the 1910s, along with later bungalows.
Pre-war homes can still have knob-and-tube wiring and ungrounded two-prong outlets, which many insurers want replaced, and small 60-amp services that struggle with today's appliances.
Walkout basements and yards on the valley slopes are popular spots for outdoor lighting and outlets, which need weatherproof, GFCI-protected circuits.
Powering a detached garage for a heater, workshop or EV charger means a buried feed from the house, often to a small subpanel.
An unfinished basement is the right time to plan circuits, lighting and outlets before the drywall goes up.
