  • A circuit is responsible for carrying electricity to various areas of your home. A dedicated circuit does this but devotes all of its energy to one appliance or electrical system. This circuit is not shared by any other appliances or devices; therefore, nothing else can draw energy from it. A dedicated circuit has its own circuit breaker in your electrical panel that should be clearly labeled.

  • A circuit is designed to trip or shut off anytime it is overloaded. This safety measure protects your home and appliances. If you placed all of your major appliances onto a single circuit, the chances that they would cause your electrical system to overheat or overload would be very high—your lights would be flickering, and breakers would be tripping left and right. Not relaxing, enjoyable, or efficient. By placing your major appliances onto their own dedicated circuit, you decrease and prevent the likelihood of overloading your system.

What Areas of A Home Need Dedicated Circuits?

Small appliances like your microwave or hair dryer usually operate off of a shared circuit. But it can be a slippery slope to circuit overload! This is why your big appliances need to have a dedicated circuit. 

Major appliances that require dedicated circuits include:

  • Dishwashers
  • Refrigerators and freezers
  • Garbage disposals
  • Hot tubs and pools
  • HVAC systems
  • Ovens and electric ranges
  • Washers and dryers
  • Water heaters
  • Sump pumps

Mr. Electric is also adept at installing dedicated circuits for specialty areas of your home. For example, if you work from home, your home office will benefit from a computer circuit to keep your productivity pumping.

Other areas that benefit from dedicated circuits:

  • Home offices
  • Outdoor kitchens
  • Greenhouses
  • Detached Garages
  • Barns

  • The process of installing a dedicated circuit is pretty straightforward. Your dependable Mr. Electric of St. Paul electrician follows a basic process that smoothly integrates your dedicated circuit into your electrical system.

    • Assessment: Your Mr. Electric of St. Paul electrician evaluates the electrical load of the appliance or system that needs the dedicated circuit. We review your existing panel to guarantee that it can support the addition. We may need to upgrade your electrical panel, perhaps with subpanel wiring. Then, we will figure out the best location and wiring route for your new circuit.
    • Installation: Prior to starting the actual installation, we will turn off the power to prevent electrical shocks so the working environment is safe. From there, we choose a circuit breaker that is compatible with your electrical panel that aligns with the amperage requirements. The circuit can then be installed and carefully connected to the right bus bar.
    • Wiring: The correct wiring is measured and cut to the proper length and routed from the electrical panel to the dedicated circuit. One end of the wire is connected to the circuit breaker, and the other end is connected to the outlet, appliance, or subpanel that will use the dedicated circuit.
    • Testing: After turning the power back on at the main panel, we can test the breaker, outlet, or appliance. The installation undergoes a full test to make sure that the connections are secure and everything functions as it should.
    • Labeling: All of the circuit breakers in your electrical panel should be clearly and accurately labeled. After installation of your dedicated circuit, we will ensure that it is labeled correctly. We can also perform an electrical safety inspection in your home and make sure your electrical panel is completely updated with the correct labeling.
    • Final Inspection: All of the local electrical codes and standards are met with Mr. Electric on the job. We make sure the area where we are working is left clean and tidy. You can also depend on us to walk you through the process and explain how to safely operate your dedicated circuit, specifically in the event that the breaker trips.

    All you have to do is pick up the phone and call Mr. Electric of St. Paul, and we will handle the installation for you. When it comes to electrical work, especially installing dedicated circuits, you should always depend on a professional electrician.
