WHAT IS A
Power Extension
We are licensed and insured for Limited Electrical work. Our company policy is that we do not "add circuits" we only extend them.
Basically, if you have an outlet down-low or nearby your desired TV location, we have a couple of methods to extend that outlet to service that new TV location.
The most common is a high-low power extension. This is where we install new wiring through the wall and add a whole new outlet up behind the TV. Stud layouts, fire blocking, and other obstructions dictate whether this route is possible or not.
The second most common is what we call a POWER KIT. This is where a dead wire is installed between that new outlet behind the TV and an inlet below or near the TV. That circuit is then energized by a power cord that can be hidden behind furniture or similar. This option is less susceptible to the obstructions above.
HOW DO WE IDENTIFY
Power Solutions
Every situation is slightly different, but there are three key components to identify which power solution would be best.
