Outlet Installation for Arroyo Hondo homes and businesses

In the high country around Arroyo Hondo, electrical systems have to handle freezing winters, summer thunderstorms, and long rural service runs. Thick adobe walls and historic construction make wiring work slower and call for careful planning.

Electric service in Taos County is typically provided by Kit Carson Electric Cooperative. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.

Outlet Installation FAQs for Arroyo Hondo

How much does it cost to add an outlet in Arroyo Hondo?

It depends on how far the new outlet is from an existing power source and what the walls are made of. Adding one beside an existing outlet is quick. Fishing wire through adobe or across a finished room takes longer.

Can you ground my two-prong outlets?

Yes. Depending on the wiring, we run a ground, rewire the circuit, or install GFCI protection, which is an accepted way to allow three-prong outlets on ungrounded circuits.

Where are GFCI outlets required?

Bathrooms, kitchens, garages, laundry areas, unfinished basements, crawl spaces, and all outdoor locations, among others.

Which areas around Arroyo Hondo do you cover for outlet installation?

All of Arroyo Hondo and the surrounding Taos County communities, including Arroyo Seco, San Cristobal, and Valdez.
