Solar panel electrical hookup in Sandia Park
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 in Sandia Park
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.
Off-grid and remote property power
Plenty of New Mexico properties sit a long way from the nearest power line. We wire off-grid and hybrid systems that combine solar, batteries and a backup generator for cabins, ranches and remote homes around Sandia Park.

- Your panel is too small or too full for solar

Solar Electrician & Battery Backup FAQ for Sandia Park
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
Swapped all our two-prong outlets and added GFCIs in the kitchen and bathrooms. Quick, tidy and fairly priced.
Our old panel was full and kept tripping when the air conditioner came on. They upgraded us to 200 amps in one day, labeled every breaker and left the wall cleaner than they found it.
Called for a quote on a few small jobs and they gave me a straight price over the phone. Did all of it in one visit.
