Solar panel electrical hookup in Gallup
The solar panel electrical hookup connects the inverter to your panel or service through the correct breaker, disconnects and labeling. The size of your main panel limits how much solar it can accept, so we check that first and upgrade the panel if it's the bottleneck.

Battery backup installation stores energy for outages and for the evening. We install the battery, the transfer equipment and a backed-up loads panel so the refrigerator, lights, internet and well pump keep running when the grid drops.

Solar Electrician & Battery Backup FAQ for Gallup
Do I need a panel upgrade for solar?
Sometimes. The main panel's rating limits the size of the solar breaker. If the system you want exceeds it, an upgrade or a different connection method solves it.
Will solar keep working during an outage?
Not on its own. Standard grid-tied systems shut down for safety. You need a battery or backup-capable inverter to keep power on.
How long will a battery run my house?
It depends on battery size and what you run. Essentials such as a refrigerator, lights and internet can run for many hours, and solar recharges the battery the next day.
Can you repair a solar system someone else installed?
Yes. We troubleshoot wiring, breakers, disconnects and connections on existing systems.
What customers say
Half the house went dark at 9 at night and there was a burning smell at the panel. Someone answered straight away, told me what to shut off and had an electrician out fast. Fixed that night.
They checked the panel first, explained the options and installed our Level 2 charger in the garage in an afternoon. Price was exactly what they quoted.
Our adobe had wiring from who knows when. They rewired it in stages so we could stay in the house and were careful with the plaster. Everything is grounded now.
