Licensed C-10 contractor specializing in multi-meter installations, CT metering, and commercial electrical service upgrades for multi-tenant buildings across Los Angeles.
Whether you’re developing a new property or upgrading an existing one, PowerRoute Electric & Plumbing handles the full scope—from design and load calculations to Edison coordination, permitting, installation, and final inspection.
Multi-meter electrical service allows a single building to have separate electrical meters for each unit or tenant instead of one shared meter.
Why this matters:
This setup is standard for:
Individual Metering
Master Metering
If you’re still using master metering, upgrading to a multi-meter system is often necessary for scaling or resale.
This isn’t just installation. It’s a coordinated system involving engineering, utility compliance, and inspections.
We design and install complete meter banks for new construction and major renovations, ensuring compliance with utility and city requirements.
For larger commercial loads, CT metering is required instead of standard meters. We handle:
Older meter setups often fail inspection or can’t support modern load demands. We upgrade:
If your system is aging, start with an evaluation through our electrical panel service & replacement
This is where most projects get delayed.
We manage:
You’re not chasing utility approvals—we handle it.
Accurate load calculation determines:
Underestimating here leads to expensive redesigns later.
For internal tracking or shared systems, we install sub-metering setups that give owners more control over usage monitoring.
Multi-meter systems often require large service upgrades. We handle high-capacity installations safely and in compliance with code.
