Electrical Inspection in Cochiti Lake, NM
Buying an older home in Cochiti Lake, or living in one? A dedicated electrical inspection goes much deeper than a general home inspection. We open the panel, test the circuits, and give you a plain-language report with priorities.
What our inspection covers
We look for the issues that matter most in Cochiti Lake homes: overloaded or recalled panels, aluminum branch wiring, ungrounded outlets, missing GFCI protection, amateur wiring from past remodels, and sun-damaged exterior wiring.
- Service entrance, meter base, and grounding
- Main panel and sub panels, with the cover removed
- Breaker sizing against wire size
- Outlet testing, polarity, and grounding
- GFCI and AFCI protection where required
- Visible wiring in attics, crawl spaces, and garages
- Smoke and carbon monoxide alarm placement
- A written summary with photos and priorities
Good times to schedule an inspection
- Before you buy or sell a home
- Your home is more than 40 years old and has never been checked
- Your insurer has asked about the wiring or panel
- Before a major remodel, EV charger, or air conditioning upgrade
- After storm, flood, or fire damage

Why Cochiti Lake properties call a local electrician
Cochiti Lake sits in the high desert of central New Mexico, where strong sun, wide swings between day and night temperatures, and summer monsoon lightning are hard on wiring, breakers, and outdoor equipment. Many homes here cool with evaporative coolers or have converted to refrigerated air on panels that were never sized for it.
Electric service in Sandoval County is typically provided by PNM or Jemez Mountains Electric Cooperative. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.
