Electrical Installation FAQs for Alto

Do electrical installations in Alto need a permit?

Many do. New circuits, panel work, and service changes generally require an electrical permit and inspection in New Mexico. We handle the paperwork and meet the inspector for permitted work.

Can my panel handle a new circuit?

We check before we quote. We look at the panel's rating, the open breaker spaces, and the load already on it. Many Alto homes have room; some need a sub panel or a panel upgrade first.

Do you install fixtures and equipment I bought myself?

Yes. We install customer-supplied fixtures, fans, chargers, and appliances as long as they are listed for use in the United States and suited to the location.
