Knob and Tube & BX Wiring Replacement

Many older homes in Somerville still have outdated knob-and-tube or BX wiring. These systems were not designed to handle today’s electrical demands and can pose safety risks. Our electricians carefully remove aging wiring and replace it with modern, high-capacity systems that meet current code requirements. The result is a safer home with wiring that can reliably support all your modern appliances and electronics.

Underground Romex Replacement

Homes with underground Romex wiring may face issues caused by moisture, soil contact, or deterioration over time. This type of wiring can break down, leading to shorts or other hazards. Kuhlman Electric provides full underground Romex replacement with materials rated for long-term durability, ensuring your system remains safe and reliable for years to come.

Electrical Panel Upgrades

If your breakers are constantly tripping or your current panel cannot support new appliances or home renovations, it’s time for an upgrade. Our team installs 200-amp and 400-amp panels that increase your home’s electrical capacity and efficiency. Panel upgrades allow you to safely add new technology, EV chargers, or additional living space without overloading your system.

EV Charger Installation

Electric vehicles are becoming more common, and having a home charging solution is convenient and efficient. We install EV chargers for all makes and models, ensuring safe and fast charging directly from your home. Proper installation by our licensed electricians guarantees both compliance with local codes and peace of mind.
