RatingI needed to make some modifications to my main panel, including adding a sub panel for emergencies. The quality of work was truly exceptional, couldn’t have asked for anything more. I highly recommend Ampt Over Electric for all your electrical needs, both big and small.
I hired this company to do several small jobs in my Condo and couldn't be happier with the results. Clear and precise communications for the quote. Ryan was abousletley delightful. Had everything fixed within 2 hours and the price is fair. I will be recommending this company to others and if I need something again will definitely call. Fast friendly and efficient service. Thank you so much to the whole team for making this such a positive experience. Shout out to Ryan because he definitely knows what he is doing!!!!!!
I totally recommend Ampt Over Electic. They were fast and efficient in setting up an estimate, doing the work and making sure I was satisfied.
We hired Ampt Over Electric to replace some old, dead light fixtures in our kitchen. Jeff arrived on time and was very quick, efficient and professional! I would recommend them to anyone looking to get some electrical work done. Thank you for making our kitchen bright again!!
Jorden at Ampt Over Electric got us a great quote (cheapest of all the quotes) to replace our outdated electrical panel. Jeff removed our old panel and installed the new one. He was patient enough to explain to me what he was doing while he worked. Clearly knowledgeable and customer focused. He even helped me clear out my utilities room so the work could be done. We are excited to have Jeff back to replace out outdoor lights with LED’s next!
Jeff did an incredible job installing our hot tub. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and extremely detail-oriented. The wiring was done cleanly and safely, and everything was organized in a way that showed real care and craftsmanship. He clearly knows his stuff and takes pride in doing the job right. It’s not easy finding tradespeople who show up on time, communicate clearly, and leave the site spotless — but Jeff checked every box. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing electrical work or hot tub installation. Solid work all around. Thanks again, Jeff!
Had Jeff from Ampt Over in to do a few jobs that were more than I could do myself. He was very professional, knowledgeable and an extreme pleasure to work with. Will definitely have him back for any BLUE jobs that beyond my abilities. Thank you again for arriving so quickly and finishing the things I would still be here doing.
Had Jeff from Amptover come today to change bathroom light fixtures. Turned out it needed three different junction boxes, which was not what he was expecting, but no problem. Superduper job done in no time flat. Fair price for excellent work! Many thanks to.Amptover And to Jeff and Jorden. Definitely gonna call them From now on for all my Electrician needs.!!
Extremely knowledgeable staff. Highly recommend. Jorden is very kind and professional.
Thank you for the amazing and quick service to move my ceiling fan
Residential Electrician Services and Home Wiring Upgrades
Calgary homeowners trust Ampt Over Electric for electrical work that meets code and keeps families safe. Our Red Seal certified electricians handle panel upgrades, circuit installations, lighting design, and complete home rewiring. Every residential project includes a detailed inspection, transparent pricing, and a workmanship guarantee.
We specialize in solving common Calgary home electrical issues: overloaded panels in older Beltline condos, aluminum wiring in 1970s Brentwood homes, and capacity upgrades for modern smart home systems. Our home electricians arrive on time, protect your floors and walls, and clean up completely before leaving.
Electrical Panel Upgrades and Replacement Services
Older Calgary homes often run on 60-amp or 100-amp panels that cannot support modern electrical demands. Air conditioning, EV chargers, hot tubs, and home offices require more power than these systems can safely deliver. Warning signs include frequently tripped breakers, flickering lights, and warm outlet covers.
Ampt Over Electric upgrades Calgary homes to 200-amp panels that handle today’s electrical loads with capacity for future additions. Our electrical panel upgrade process includes permit acquisition, utility coordination, inspection scheduling, and a full system safety check. Most residential upgrades complete in one day.
EV Charger Installation Services
Installing a Level 2 EV charger at your Calgary home cuts charging time from 24+ hours to 4-8 hours. Our electricians are certified to install Tesla Wall Connectors, ChargePoint Home Flex, and all major EV charger brands. We assess your panel capacity, recommend optimal charger placement, and handle all permit requirements.
Many Calgary homes need a panel upgrade before EV charger installation. We provide honest assessments and bundled pricing when both services are needed. Garage installations, carport mounting, and outdoor-rated setups available for Calgary’s climate conditions.
Hot Tub & Spa Electrical Wiring
Hot tubs require dedicated 240V circuits with GFCI protection installed by a licensed electrician. Improper wiring creates shock hazards and voids manufacturer warranties. Ampt Over Electric provides complete hot tub electrical installation including subpanel installation, proper grounding, and disconnect switches required by Alberta electrical code.
We work with all major hot tub brands and coordinate directly with your dealer for seamless installation timing. Our hot tub wiring service includes permit pulling, inspection scheduling, and documentation for your warranty records. Service available throughout Calgary and surrounding communities.
Aluminum Wiring Replacement & Pigtailing
Homes built in Calgary between 1965 and 1976 often contain aluminum wiring that presents fire risks at connection points. Insurance companies increasingly require aluminum wiring inspection reports, and some deny coverage for homes with unremediated aluminum wiring. This affects thousands of Calgary properties in communities like Lake Bonavista, Braeside, and Palliser.
Ampt Over Electric offers two aluminum wiring solutions: complete copper rewiring or COPALUM crimp remediation at each connection point. Both methods restore your home to safe electrical standards and satisfy insurance requirements. We provide detailed documentation for your insurance provider and real estate transactions.

Frequently Asked Questions About Calgary Electrician Services
How much does an electrician cost in Calgary?
Rates vary depending on the scope of work and complexity. Ampt Over Electric provides clear, upfront quotes before starting any project. Call +1 368‑993‑7463 for a free estimate on your Calgary electrical project.
Do I need a permit for electrical work in Calgary?
Yes, most electrical work in Calgary requires a permit from the City of Calgary Safety Codes department. This includes panel upgrades, new circuits, EV charger installations, and hot tub wiring. Ampt Over Electric handles all permit applications and inspection scheduling as part of our service.
How long does an electrical panel upgrade take?
Most residential panel upgrades in Calgary complete in 4-8 hours. Your power will be off during the installation, typically for 4-6 hours. We schedule utility disconnection and city inspection to minimize your downtime and complete the upgrade in a single day.
Is aluminum wiring dangerous?
Aluminum wiring itself is not dangerous, but connections between aluminum wire and devices can loosen over time, creating fire hazards. Homes with aluminum wiring are 55 times more likely to have fire hazard conditions. Professional remediation or replacement eliminates this risk and satisfies insurance requirements.
Can I install my own EV charger in Calgary?
No, Alberta electrical code requires a licensed electrician to install Level 2 EV chargers. The installation requires a permit, proper circuit sizing, and inspection. DIY installation voids warranties, violates code, and may not be covered by your home insurance if problems occur.
