Why Tres Piedras properties call a local electrician

Tres Piedras is in New Mexico's high country. Long heating seasons, snow, and winter storms put steady demand on electrical systems and make outages more than an inconvenience. Older adobe and territorial-style buildings in Taos County often hide several generations of wiring behind thick walls.

Most properties in Taos County get their electricity from Kit Carson Electric Cooperative. If your project touches the meter or main service, we handle the scheduling with the utility.

We provide outlet installation throughout Tres Piedras and in nearby Petaca, Vallecitos, Ojo Caliente, and San Cristobal.

Outlet Installation FAQs for Tres Piedras

How much does it cost to add an outlet in Tres Piedras?

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 Tres Piedras do you cover for outlet installation?

All of Tres Piedras and the surrounding Taos County communities, including Petaca, Vallecitos, and Ojo Caliente.
