Electrical Sub Panel Installation can sometimes be necessary when remodeling or adding on to your home or office space. An electrical sub panel is a lot like a traffic guard for your house, protecting its wiring and circuitry from overloading and giving you more control over the flow of power to different areas of the facility. If you add a garage or new section to your home and your central electrical panel box does not have any more room for new circuits, then installing a sub panel will allow you to supply power to this new section from a separate individual location. This also helps organize the circuit pathways that are providing power to specific areas of the building. Several factors are taken into account when considering the need for an electrical sub panel. First, you'll need to have a genera idea of the amount of power needed to generate lighting and any other utilities or devices that will rely on the power. NEC (National Electrical Code) requires that all electrical panels must have at least 36 inches of clearance in front of the panel, 30 inches of clearance across the face, and they must be a minimum of 78 inches off the ground. It must be mounted in a dry location and be easy to access, and never mounted near moist areas like around a pool.
