RV Pad & Shop Power Wiring in North Idaho

Rural North Idaho properties often need power where there is none yet: an RV pad for guests, a detached shop, a barn, or an outbuilding. Done right, these are clean, safe, code-compliant circuits that just work. Here is what is involved.

RV pads and hookups

We install RV power pedestals and outlets, including 30-amp and 50-amp RV receptacles, on a properly sized, GFCI-protected circuit run from your panel or a sub-panel. Whether it is a parking spot for visiting family or a full hookup, we make sure the wire size, breaker, and outlet all match so your RV runs safely.

Shop and outbuilding power

Powering a detached shop, garage, or barn usually means running a feeder to a new sub-panel in the building, then branch circuits for lights, outlets, and equipment. We size the feeder for what you actually run, from a few lights and outlets to welders, compressors, and 240V tools, and we handle the trenching coordination, conduit, grounding, and permits.

Do you need a panel upgrade?

Maybe. Adding an RV hookup or a shop sub-panel is a real new load, so if your main panel is full or it is an older service, you may need a service upgrade first. We check your panel and your total load before quoting so there are no surprises mid-project.

How we do it

We walk the property with you, plan the runs, size everything correctly, and install it cleanly with the proper permits and inspection. We serve Coeur d'Alene, Hayden, Post Falls, Rathdrum, Athol, Spirit Lake, and the surrounding rural areas, and every job starts with a free estimate.

Frequently asked questions

Can you install a 50-amp RV hookup at my house? Yes, on a dedicated, correctly sized, GFCI-protected circuit.

Do I need a sub-panel for my shop? Usually yes. A sub-panel in the building gives you room for lights, outlets, and equipment circuits and is safer than running many long individual circuits.

Do you handle the trenching? We coordinate the trench and handle the conduit, wire, and connections; many homeowners dig the trench themselves to save cost, and we will tell you the depth and route.
