Pole Barns & Outbuildings in Bismarck, ND

Rugged, dependable electrical work for your working buildings.

or dial 701-400-8990

Detached buildings are their own project. You are running a feeder to a separate structure, setting a subpanel, grounding it correctly, and then building out lighting and circuits that hold up to cold, dust and real equipment. It is not the same as adding a bedroom outlet, and doing it right the first time is a lot cheaper than doing it twice.

What this covers

  • Electrical service and feeders to detached buildings
  • Subpanels and grounding for outbuildings
  • Shop equipment circuits including 240V
  • Shop and yard lighting
  • Receptacles rated for the environment
  • Detached garage and agricultural building wiring

What we work through on an outbuilding job

  • Feeder sizing and burial depth for the run from the house or meter to the building.
  • A properly grounded subpanel at the building with its own grounding electrode.
  • Circuit planning for 240V equipment, welders and compressors before the feeder is sized.
  • Fixture and receptacle selection that survives cold, dust and moisture.
