Dedicated Circuits, Outlets & Switches on Long Island
From a new 20A circuit for a window AC to a 50A run for a range or hot tub, Berman Electric adds dedicated circuits, outlets, and switches across Long Island. We also bring older homes up to current GFCI and AFCI requirements so kitchens, baths, and bedrooms are protected.

Our process
How the job goes from call to clean finish.
Identify the load
We confirm the amperage and circuit type the appliance or room actually needs.
Check the panel
We verify there's capacity and a breaker space before quoting.
Install
We run the dedicated circuit and install devices cleanly and to code.
Test
We confirm GFCI/AFCI function and correct wiring with a circuit tester.
Safety & code
Safety and code considerations
- Major appliances get their own dedicated circuit sized to the load
- GFCI protection in kitchens, baths, garages, and outdoors per NEC
- AFCI protection in living spaces where the code now requires it
- Backstabbed and ungrounded outlets corrected, not reused
FAQ
Questions Long Island customers ask.
What is a dedicated circuit and when do I need one?
A dedicated circuit serves a single appliance so it isn't sharing power with anything else. Ranges, dryers, hot tubs, EV chargers, microwaves, and window ACs all run best — and to code — on their own circuit.
What does it cost to add an outlet or circuit?
A simple added outlet on an existing circuit is modest; a new dedicated circuit typically runs $150–$900 depending on distance from the panel and amperage. We quote after seeing the run.
Do my kitchen and bathroom outlets have to be GFCI?
Yes — current code requires GFCI protection near sinks, in garages, and outdoors. If your older home isn't protected, we can update it.
Can you install smart switches and dimmers?
Absolutely. We install smart switches, USB outlets, and LED-rated dimmers, and make sure the neutral and wiring support them.
