Local knowledge for Ranchos de Taos, Taos County
In the high country around Ranchos de Taos, electrical systems have to handle freezing winters, summer thunderstorms, and long rural service runs. Thick adobe walls and historic construction make wiring work slower and call for careful planning.
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.
We provide electrical inspections throughout Ranchos de Taos and in nearby Taos, El Prado, Carson, and Vadito.
