Why Playas properties call a local electrician

In southern New Mexico's desert, Playas 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.

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

We provide panel upgrades throughout Playas and in nearby Animas, Lordsburg, Hachita, and Rodeo.
