Case Study: Racebrook Road Kitchen Re-Wire
When the D’Angelo family gutted their 1970s kitchen on Racebrook Road, they discovered brittle cloth-wrapped wiring and a 60 A sub-panel. PowerPlus installed a new 125 A sub-panel with AFCI breakers, rewired every countertop receptacle to GFCI standards, and ran a 50 A circuit for an induction range. We filed the permit with the Orange Building Department and passed rough & final inspections on the first try.
Orange Permits, UI Service Orders & Inspections—Handled by PowerPlus
Every electrical project in Orange is overseen by the Building Department at 617 Orange Center Road and must follow the 2023 Connecticut State Building Code. Panel upgrades and new 240 V circuits also need a United Illuminating (UI) service-order approval.
- Electrical Permit — Filed online by a licensed E-1/E-2 contractor (OpenGov e-permit system).
- UI Load Sheet — Submitted to UI Engineering for service-capacity review.
- Rough & Final Inspections — Scheduled with the Orange inspector; homeowner or contractor must be present.
PowerPlus manages every step—paying permit fees, uploading load calculations, and meeting inspectors on-site—so your renovation keeps moving. Need work completed before a kitchen-countertop template? We’ll coordinate timelines so trades never trip over each other.
Pro Tip: Ice-storm season can delay UI disconnect/reconnect appointments. Book panel upgrades in early fall to guarantee power is back on the same day.
