Kitchen Electrical Upgrade for Silver City homes and businesses
In southern New Mexico's desert, Silver City summers push air conditioning, coolers, and well pumps hard for months at a time, and monsoon storms bring lightning and short outages. Heat is tough on breakers, and the sun is tough on anything installed outside.
Most properties in Grant County get their electricity from PNM or a rural electric cooperative. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.
