One property, panel to pool

How a country job gets wired, from the service panel to the far end of the yard.

Most of the work around Upper Black Eddy is not one outlet. It is a house, a long driveway and something at the end of it that needs power. This is the walk a typical job takes.

At the panel

It starts where the power comes into the house.

Before anything new goes on the line, we open the panel and look at what the house already asks of it. An older farmhouse service that was never sized for central air, a hot tub and a workshop is a common reason breakers keep tripping. If the service is too small, the upgrade comes first, and we do service upgrades of every size.

Across the yard

Our own backhoe digs the run.

Country properties put the things that need power a long way from the house: the barn, the well house, the pool, a standby generator on its pad. We do our own trenching and backhoe work, so the conduit goes in the ground, the wire goes in the conduit and the lawn gets put back by the same crew that wired it.

At the far end

Pools, hot tubs and outbuildings, wired and switched.

The run ends at a disconnect you can reach, set where the pump and heater need it. Pools and hot tubs are part of the work, and so is the outdoor and landscape lighting for the path back to the house.

Four kinds of work, one crew

Line voltage, standby power, solar and the low-voltage wiring in between.

The same electricians handle all four, so the generator, the panel it feeds and the cable behind the TV are never three different companies' problem.

Before you call

What people on the ridge ask first.

Anything not here, ring the office on 610-982-5615 or email neil@chestnutridgeelectric.com. There are longer answers on the blog.

Both. Chestnut Ridge Electric works out of Upper Black Eddy in Bucks County and serves Eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Our New Jersey licence number, 15244, is on the logo and on every truck.

Call the office on 610-982-5615. Emergencies are taken 24/7. If you smell burning or see scorching at an outlet or panel, switch off that circuit at the breaker if it is safe to reach, and call.

Yes. We install automatic standby generators of all sizes and brands, and we can add a hookup so a portable generator can feed the house safely. We are a Certified Generac Service Dealer, so we also service the units we put in. Estimates are free.

Sized properly, it keeps the things a country house cannot do without: air conditioning and heat, the sump pump, the well pump, the security system and large appliances. We size the unit to what you want covered.

We install both. A roof mount uses space you already have; a ground mount suits a property with open land and lets the panels face the sun without working around the roof. We look at the site and give you a free estimate either way.

We return calls within 48 hours. Emergencies go straight to the 24/7 line on 610-982-5615.

Yes. Phone, cable and Cat5 wiring, speakers, TVs and home theatres, and camera systems for homes and businesses, done by the same crew that does your line-voltage work.

When the lights go out

Storm took the power? Call the shop, day or night.

Emergencies are answered 24/7 on 610-982-5615. For everything else, a generator you have been meaning to put in, a panel that trips, solar you want priced, send the details and the office returns every call within 48 hours.
