The project
Energized Electric supported a general contractor on a residential garage bay addition in Hanover Township. The electrical scope included a 100 amp subpanel for the garage along with interior lighting, receptacles, exterior lighting, and exterior receptacles.
Garage additions often need more planning than a few outlets. The electrician must consider panel capacity, feeder routing, lighting layout, equipment needs, exterior receptacle placement, weather exposure, and future use of the space.
Subpanel size and layout depend on the addition, so the plan should be built around how the garage bay will actually be used.
What similar customers should know
Garage additions should be planned around how the space will be used. Lighting, exterior receptacles, tools, garage doors, EV charging plans, heating, and future workshop needs can all affect the electrical design.
