What's Included in Our Electrical Installation Service

Electrical Design & Planning

We design your electrical layout based on your needs -- circuit count, outlet placement, lighting plan, and panel sizing. We plan for today's needs and future expansion.

Permits & Inspections

We pull all required electrical permits from the City of Murrieta or Riverside County and coordinate rough-in and final inspections. Full code compliance guaranteed.

Panel Installation & Upgrade

New 200-amp panels for new construction, upgrades from 100A to 200A for remodels, subpanel installations, and load balancing for your home's electrical demands.

Rough-In Wiring

Complete rough-in wiring for new construction and remodels -- circuit runs, outlet and switch boxes, recessed light housings, and all junction boxes, ready for inspection.

Dedicated Circuits

Dedicated 240V and 120V circuits for kitchen appliances, HVAC systems, EV chargers, hot tubs, home offices, and other high-demand equipment.

Finish & Fixture Installation

Final trim-out includes installing all outlets, switches, light fixtures, ceiling fans, dimmers, and cover plates. We test every circuit before final inspection.

Signs You Need an Electrical Upgrade

Your home still has a fuse box or 60/100-amp panel. Modern homes require 200-amp service to handle air conditioning, kitchen appliances, EV chargers, and other high-demand loads. A panel upgrade is the first step to safe, reliable power.
You are planning a kitchen or bathroom remodel. Modern kitchens require multiple dedicated circuits for refrigerators, dishwashers, microwaves, and countertop outlets. Bathrooms require GFCI-protected circuits. California code mandates these for all remodels.
You are adding a room, ADU, or converting a garage. Room additions and ADUs require new circuits, additional panel capacity, and often a subpanel. All new living spaces must meet current California Electrical Code requirements.
Your home has knob-and-tube or aluminum wiring. Homes built before 1970 may have outdated wiring that does not meet current safety standards. Insurance companies may refuse to cover homes with knob-and-tube or unrepaired aluminum wiring.
You rely on extension cords and power strips for everyday use. If you do not have enough outlets, you need additional circuits and receptacles. Overloaded power strips and extension cords are a leading cause of residential electrical fires.
You need circuits for an EV charger, hot tub, or home office. High-demand equipment requires dedicated circuits with proper wire gauge and breaker sizing. Adding these to an already full panel means it is time for an upgrade.

Electrical Installation FAQs

How much does it cost to wire a new house in Murrieta, CA?

New construction wiring in Murrieta typically costs $4 to $9 per square foot for a standard residential home. For a 2,000 sq ft home, expect to pay $8,000 to $18,000 for a complete electrical installation including the panel, all circuits, outlets, switches, and light fixture wiring. Costs vary based on the number of circuits, fixture count, panel size, and any smart home or specialty wiring requirements.

How much does it cost to rewire a house in California?

A whole-house rewire in California costs $5 to $17 per square foot, or roughly $15,000 to $30,000 for an average 1,500 sq ft home. Rewiring an existing home is more expensive than new construction because it involves removing old wiring and working around existing walls. The total cost depends on the home's size, number of stories, accessibility, and whether walls need to be opened.

Do I need a permit for electrical work during a remodel in California?

Yes. California requires an electrical permit for any work that involves adding new circuits, running new wiring, upgrading the electrical panel, or modifying the electrical system. The permit ensures the work is inspected and meets the current California Electrical Code. Power Man Electric handles all permit applications and inspections as part of our installation service.

What electrical code changes affect California homes in 2026?

The 2026 California Electrical Code introduces expanded AFCI protection for virtually all 15- and 20-amp dwelling unit circuits, expanded GFCI protection requirements, mandatory surge protection devices for all dwelling unit services, and updated Title 24 energy standards requiring solar-ready infrastructure and LED lighting in major remodels. These changes affect any new construction or significant remodel project.

How long does an electrical installation take for a home remodel?

A single-room remodel with new circuits and fixtures typically takes 1-2 days. A kitchen or bathroom remodel with dedicated circuits, GFCI outlets, and new lighting takes 2-3 days. A whole-house rewire or major renovation can take 1-2 weeks depending on the home's size and complexity. Power Man Electric provides a detailed timeline during your free estimate.
