Mike Conneely walks through the early planning and installation of new electrical service in a custom home, emphasizing how timing drives the entire process. He explains that coordinating with the utility provider early is critical to avoid delays, requiring the electrical panel and meter socket to be installed and inspected upfront. In a large home with significant power demand, Conneely outlines a clean, organized utility room layout, including multiple panels and a generator transfer switch. He also highlights material choices, like moisture-resistant plywood, and how site conditions—grading, retaining walls, and conduit runs—impact electrical infrastructure decisions during construction
