If you purchase or reoccupy a home that has been vacant for at least six months, there are special requirements to meet in order to reconnect to the electrical grid in Greenville County, SC. Both Greenville County government and Duke Energy require an inspection that proves a licensed electrical contractor has tested the electrical system with a generator to see if it's safe to hookup electricity.
Greenville County Residential Re-energize Electrical Service Requirements
The Duke Energy residential re-energize electrical service was put in place to safeguard individuals, properties and the power grid. When homes are left unattended, it's highly likely that criminals will steal the copper from the crawlspaces and attic to recycle them for a profit. This leaves bare wires exposed, posing a hazard to animals, people and the property itself.
Hooking up a vandalized home can have detrimental impacts for users in the surrounding area and, potentially, the entire grid. To prevent any of these mishaps. Greenville County and Duke Energy have collaborated to develop the re-energize requirements.
How it Works
Duke Energy Residential Re-energize Electrical Service lays out the requirements for an inspection of the property by a licensed electrical contractor. The contractor sets up a generator and hooks it up to the electrical box to verify the electrical system is in safe working order and meets basic code requirements for safety. GFCI and Arc Fault Protection will be verified in addition to Ungrounded Receptacles and Gas Pipe Bonding.
In addition to the electrical inspection by a professional electrician, the home must pass an electrical safety inspection by a county inspector, who checks the outside electrical system.
When choosing an electrical contractor to perform the re-energize electrical service, it important to look for a local company familiar with the Greenville County electrical permits and the ins and outs of filing the needed forms. Dealing with an inexperienced contractor can cause delays and may even prevent you from occupying your home.

"I called around and Upstate Electrical Solutions were the only ones who told me that he come out that day, I got a notification from them 10 minutes after I got off the phone with them let me know that they were on the way. Not only did they respond fast but they treated me as a priority number one. They also got all the permits required for me to get my power back on. They made this whole dilemma extremely easy. This company really cares about the customer. I will definitely be doing business again with them."

"Upstate Electrical installed a new breaker, ran wiring, and installed a new electric car charging device on the outside of my house. Stephen and McCoy worked quickly and cleanly, and the final result looks perfect. I would use them for any electrical work I have in the future."
"Upstate Electrical Solutions' price was fair compared to some other prices that we received. After the install we could not believe the difference the lighting made in our kitchen. We are completely happy with the advice and service given by Upstate Electrical Solutions, not to mention the value. Thank you very much."
M. Chancey, Greenville, SC
"We're very happy with the level of service that Upstate Electrical Solutions provided. We received a thorough, professional quote for rewiring our house. Ian did such a great job that I would recommend him to anyone needing electrical work done. We couldn't be happier with the professional work he did and the level of customer service he provided."

"TESLA HOME CHARGER INSTALLATION. I just got the new Model 3 and had ordered the home charger. I could not find anyone that knew what they were doing and the Tesla's website only recommended 2 installers which were outrageously overpriced and they were booked out 6 weeks. I called Upstate Electrical Solutions and they were able to come out the next day. They gave me a fair quote and did an amazing clean professional job. I also appreciated they did not try to sell me any 3rd party products and acknowledged I got the right charger for the car. The two installers were Ian and Anthony. Once again, I highly recommend these guys for home car charger installation."
"Ian responded almost immediately and was there that same day. He quickly diagnosed and resolved the problem sockets and also installed a much needed outside outlet for a very reasonable price. He was prompt, courteous, and efficient. I am new to this area and needed a good, reliable electrician. I have found that with Upstate Electrical Solutions."

"McCoy and Ally installed a Ford Charger, home surge protector and additional 220V outlet in my garage. Outstanding work. Very clean install and would highly recommend to others looking to install a car charging system."
"I called Upstate Electrical Solutions for a problem with my circuit breaker. Ian answered my call and tried to troubleshoot over the phone. We agreed a service call was necessary and he was at my house in about an hour. He quickly remedied the problem and made an incidental repair while he was there at no additional charge. Will definitely use this company in the future."
Bonnie W., Greenville, SC
"Called on Monday and Ian came the next day. Discovered the problem with the power to the HVAC unit. He fixed the issue with no trouble at all. He did not charge a fee for just pulling in my driveway. What he did charge was very reasonable. I will definitely call him again for any electrical issues. I highly recommend Upstate Electrical Solutions."
Scott S., Raleigh, NC
"Ian did a fantastic job for us - installed three ceiling fans and a floor outlet. Also, he made a great recommendation for LED under-cabinet kitchen lighting, which turned out beautiful. Just as important as the quality and competent work performed was their professionalism and dependability. Great communication, on time, as promised, completed efficiently and correctly."
