Project Spotlight: Dedicated Circuits, Surge Protection & E-Bike Charging in Millville, DE

Custom Electrical Solutions for a New Homeowner

When Steve moved into his new home in Millville, Delaware, he reached out to Expert Wire Electrical Service for help with a few custom electrical upgrades to meet his specific needs. Our licensed electricians, conducted a full evaluation and developed a comprehensive plan to enhance safety, functionality, and convenience throughout the home.

Scope of Work: Three Key Electrical Upgrades

✅ 1. Dedicated Circuit to Utility Room

Steve needed a reliable power source for his upstairs utility room. We installed a 20-amp dedicated circuit on a dual-function breaker, designed to protect against both arc faults and ground faults.

Routing the Circuit:

Our team strategically routed the wiring through the garage soffit, into an exterior wall, through a bedroom, and up into the attic space, which included working in a partially unconditioned void.

Material Selection:

We used PVC-coated MC cable, which is durable and code-compliant for the space.

Quadruplex Outlet:

A quad outlet was installed, giving Steve four safe, grounded plug-in points in his utility room.

✅ 2. Surge Protection Upgrade

During our inspection, we discovered that the home’s existing surge protector—installed as a combination breaker—had failed.

New Surge Protector Installation:

We installed a new Siemens brand surge protection device, placed directly above the main breaker for optimal protection.

Panel Labeling:

After moving circuits, we took care to re-label the electrical panel, ensuring clarity and accuracy for future service.

✅ 3. E-Bike Charging Outlet in the Garage

To help Steve power his electric bikes, we added a dedicated receptacle in the garage.

Clean Install:

We cut a small hand hole near the panel and drilled left into the next stud bay to neatly install the new outlet.

Consistent Look:

The new receptacle was mounted at the same height as existing garage outlets.

Code-Compliant Protection:

We used a GFCI receptacle to ensure proper protection for garage use and meet NEC requirements.

The Result: Safe, Functional, and Customized Power

Steve now has:

✔️A dedicated utility room circuit with quad outlet access

✔️Updated whole-home surge protection for peace of mind

✔️A dedicated, GFCI-protected outlet for safely charging his e-bikes

This custom work was completed with care and precision, reinforcing Expert Wire’s reputation for providing safe, high-quality, and customer-focused electrical solutions.
