Kilowatt Electrical
Full electrical design and installation for accessory dwelling units. Permits, subpanels, and local code compliance.
Scope of Work
Context
Long Beach and most Orange County cities require permits for ADU electrical work. We handle design, permitting, and installation so your unit meets current code and passes inspection first try.
ADUs need dedicated circuits for kitchen, laundry, and HVAC. We size subpanels correctly, run conduit straight, label the panel, and wire to local building standards.

Common Questions
Most ADUs need a subpanel or dedicated service. We design, permit, and install to local code in Long Beach and OC.
Most ADUs run off a subpanel fed from the main house panel—no separate meter needed. If you're renting the ADU out and want its usage billed separately, a separate meter is possible but is a bigger job with its own permit and utility coordination. We'll walk you through both options during your estimate.
Most ADU electrical rough-ins in Long Beach and OC run in the $4,000–$10,000 range, depending on ADU size, panel capacity, and whether you want a separate meter. We give a firm number after seeing your panel and ADU plans.
