Sub Panel Installation for Red River homes and businesses

Red River 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.

Depending on your address, power in Taos County typically comes from Kit Carson Electric Cooperative. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.

Our sub panel installation covers all of Red River, along with neighboring Questa, Taos Ski Valley, Valdez, and Cerro.

Sub Panel Installation FAQs for Red River

Sub panel or full panel upgrade: which do I need in Red River?

If the main service has enough capacity and you only need more spaces or power in a new location, a sub panel is usually enough. If the service itself is too small, you need a panel upgrade. We run the numbers and tell you which.

How big should a sub panel be?

A garage or small shop commonly uses 60 to 100 amps. A casita with its own cooking and cooling may need more. We size it to what you plan to run.

Can you run power to a detached building?

Yes. We trench, lay conduit, pull the feeder, and install the panel and grounding at the building.
