Commercial Meter Base & Panel Changes in Dallas

Ensuring Your Business Has a Safe & Secure Power Supply

In order for many businesses and commercial properties to thrive, they are typically located in high traffic areas. While this may be good for foot traffic and ease of access for potential customers, it also poses some serious risks in terms of power supply. For many commercial properties, their meter base, which houses the electric company’s meter, is located either on the exterior side or back of the building. This leaves them exposed to potential accidents, which could not only destroy the meter base, but also cause a loss of power. This interruption could be devastating, not to mention the potential damage it can cause to any electronic devices or machinery.

Fortunately, the electricians at ElectricMan are skilled at commercial meter base and panel changes in Dallas. Our team has over 35 years of experience and will work to ensure that your power is restored in no time at all.

Our Commercial Meter Base Services

A meter base is installed on the exterior of your commercial building and it works to measure the amount of electricity used so the utility company and bill you properly. Believe it or not, one of the most frequent service calls we get is to repair or replace meter bases that have been damaged. The most common causes of such damage are wide trucks that drive down narrow streets or back alleys and cars crashing into buildings (often as the result of a drunk driving accident).

In addition to damaged meter bases, we can also assist if you need a replacement due to any of the following reasons:

• Your meter base is old and outdated, rendering it not up to local and state codes
• You need to change the size of the electrical service in your building
• You’re upgrading your building’s electrical panel
• A permit was pulled to conduct other electrical work, and the city is requiring the meter base be worked on as well

At ElectricMan, we are experienced with pulling all the necessary permits and ensuring that everything is up to proper local and state codes. As always, our licensed and insured electricians are focused on safety.

Panel Services Guaranteed to Make You Amped Up

In addition to the meter base, another main important of your commercial building’s ability to have power is the electrical panel. The panel is responsible for controlling the electricity that comes from the utility company and into your property. Your panel contains breakers that are attached to each circuit, and these help regulate the amount of energy supplied to your devices, machinery, elevators, and security systems in terms of amps. The breakers help prevent electrical fires due to overloaded or short circuits.

Because your panel is essentially the main source of your building’s electricity, it’s important that it remains properly cared for. If you’re unsure about whether or not your panel is in a healthy condition, we encourage you to call our Dallas commercial meter base and panel change experts for an inspection.

We may suggest replacing your panel if:

• Your panel is more than 15 years old or you’re unsure of its age
• There is visible corrosion within or around your panel
• The panel has begun to rust
• You’re planning on remodeling or adding on to your property
