Why Magdalena properties call a local electrician

Central New Mexico's high desert climate ages electrical systems in its own way. Around Magdalena, ultraviolet light breaks down exposed cable and plastic boxes, temperature swings loosen connections, and monsoon season brings surges and brief outages.

Electric service in Socorro County is typically provided by Socorro Electric Cooperative. For work on the service entrance or meter, we arrange the disconnect and reconnect with them so you do not have to.
