Licensed Residential
Electricians in Agassiz

Yes — most electrical work in BC requires a permit from Technical Safety BC, including panel upgrades, EV charger installations, new circuits, and wiring changes. CN Electrical pulls all required permits on your behalf as part of every job. You don't need to deal with the paperwork.

We're based in Chilliwack and serve the whole Agassiz–Harrison corridor, including Harrison Hot Springs, Harrison Mills, the Highway 7 area, and the surrounding agricultural flats. For most residential calls we offer same-day or next-day service, and we schedule regular route days through the region to keep travel costs low.

Yes. As a full-service electrical contractor, we handle farm and agricultural electrical — well pumps, irrigation controls, barn and dairy parlour wiring, pump houses, and outbuilding circuits. If you're adding agricultural loads, we'll also assess whether your service needs a capacity upgrade.

Panel upgrade costs in Agassiz depend on the scope of work. A same-amperage panel replacement (new panel, breakers, and circuit reconnections) runs $2,400–$3,400. Upgrading from 100A to 200A service — including new service wires, meter base, BC Hydro coordination, permit, and inspection — typically runs $5,600–$6,600 overhead or $4,600–$5,600 with conduit already in place. We provide a detailed written quote before any work begins.

Yes. CN Electrical is a fully licensed electrical contractor registered with Technical Safety BC and carrying full liability insurance. All our electricians hold valid BC certifications. We work throughout the Fraser Valley including Agassiz, Harrison Hot Springs, Chilliwack, and Hope.

Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency electrical service for urgent situations — burning smells, power loss, tripping breakers that won't reset, exposed wiring, or anything that poses a safety risk. Call us directly for the fastest response. We aim to be on-site the same day for genuine emergencies.

Yes. As a CleanBC registered contractor, we can help Agassiz homeowners access rebates on qualifying electrical upgrades — including heat pump connections and EV charger installations. BC Hydro also offers up to $350 in rebates for EV charger installs through their stackable incentive programs. We walk you through what you qualify for at the time of booking.

Not always. Many Agassiz homes with 200A service can accommodate a Level 2 EV charger without an upgrade. However, older homes on 100A service, or those with limited spare breaker capacity, may need a panel upgrade first. We assess your panel as part of every EV charger quote at no extra charge.

A breaker that keeps tripping usually means one of three things: an overloaded circuit (too many devices drawing power), a short circuit (damaged wiring), or a faulty breaker. Some older homes with Federal Pioneer or Federal Pacific panels may have breakers that trip at lower loads than rated. If it keeps happening after you've reset it once, call an electrician — don't keep resetting it.

Federal Pacific Stab-Lok and Zinsco panels were common in homes built from the 1960s through the 1980s and are well-represented in older Agassiz and Harrison properties. Both brands have documented safety issues — breakers that fail to trip under overload — which creates a fire risk. If your home still has one of these panels, replacing it is strongly recommended.

Yes. We wire and rewire recreational cabins, docks, and seasonal properties around Harrison Lake and the surrounding clearances. From safe cabin rewires and hot tub hookups to generator prewiring for off-grid reliance, we handle it all with proper permits and inspections.

Yes. Adding a secondary suite typically requires a dedicated electrical panel or sub-panel for the suite, plus separate circuits for kitchen appliances, bathroom, and lighting. A permit from Technical Safety BC is required. Many suites in older homes also trigger a 200A panel upgrade if the existing service is only 100A. We handle the full scope — assessment, panel upgrade if needed, suite wiring, permit, and inspection.
