Local knowledge for Orogrande, Otero County
In southern New Mexico's desert, Orogrande summers push air conditioning, coolers, and well pumps hard for months at a time, and monsoon storms bring lightning and short outages. Heat is tough on breakers, and the sun is tough on anything installed outside.
Depending on your address, power in Otero County typically comes from PNM or Otero County Electric Cooperative. When a job involves the meter or the service connection, we coordinate the shutoff and reconnection with the utility.

Do basement outlets need GFCI protection?
Outlets in unfinished basement areas require GFCI protection, and it is also required near sinks and in bathrooms.
