We Pull Every Sandy City / Salt Lake County Permit
Rocky Mountain Power serves virtually all of the Salt Lake Valley, Utah Valley, Davis County, and Weber County — our entire service area.

What Salt Lake Valley Homeowners Ask Before Saying Yes
Honest answers to the questions every Salt Lake Valley homeowner should ask before hiring any electrician.
⚡ "Are you actually DOPL licensed?"
Yes. Jason Grimes, our DOPL Licensed Master Electrician, holds Utah's highest electrical credential, and owner Tyler Gordon oversees every project. Every Elite Electric employee on your property is licensed. Verify it at dopl.utah.gov. We provide our license number upfront on every quote.
☀️ "Do you handle both solar AND electrical?"
Yes — we are one of very few contractors in Salt Lake Valley that holds both solar installer and DOPL electrical licenses. You get one company, one crew, one permit, and one invoice for your panel + solar + battery + EV charger project. No handoffs, no coordination problems.
💰 "Will the final price match the quote?"
Every quote is flat-rate and written. The number you see is the number you pay — guaranteed in writing. In 1,500+ Salt Lake Valley and Utah jobs, we have never presented a change order after a signed quote. If we find something unexpected on the job, we absorb it or we pause and discuss before continuing.
📋 "Do you pull the permit?"
We pull every permit. Sandy City and Salt Lake County require permits for panel upgrades, EV chargers, solar, generators, and any 240V circuit. Unpermitted work voids homeowners insurance and creates title problems when you sell. Our 100% first-inspection pass rate means zero re-permit fees on your project.
🔋 "What battery do you recommend for Sandy?"
Elite Electric is Utah's only authorized Sigenergy SigenStor dealer — a 5–20kWh scalable battery with built-in hybrid inverter, 10-year warranty, and eligibility for the flat $2,000 RMP Wattsmart rebate (10kW+ tier). We also install Tesla Powerwall 3 and Enphase IQ. We recommend based on your system size, not our margin.
🕐 "How long will the job take?"
Most Salt Lake Valley electrical jobs complete in 1–2 days: panel upgrades in 1 day, EV charger installs in half a day, solar systems in 2 days, generator installs in 2 days. We confirm the timeline in writing before the job starts and we show up on time. No half-day windows. We give you a specific start time.
Elite Electric vs. Other Salt Lake Valley Electricians
These are the things Salt Lake Valley homeowners wish they had asked before signing with another contractor. We make them easy to ask and easy to verify.
Most Electricians Quote by Phone
A phone quote is not a real quote. It's an estimate that becomes a change order the moment they see something unexpected. Elite Electric visits every Salt Lake Valley home before quoting anything.
Most Quote Solar Without Checking the Panel
45% of Salt Lake Valley homes need a panel upgrade before adding solar. Most installers skip this check and surprise you with a $2,000+ change order after signing. We check the panel on the free assessment.
Most Use Subcontractors
Most Salt Lake Valley electrical companies send subcontractors — unlicensed workers you've never met. If something goes wrong, you chase two separate companies for accountability. Elite Electric uses only our own licensed employees on every job.

This is the guide most electrical companies don't write because it takes real expertise to produce accurately. We publish it because informed customers make better decisions.
When Does Your Salt Lake Valley Home Actually Need a Panel Upgrade?
Your panel is your home's electrical heart. Most Salt Lake Valley homes built before 1990 have 100-amp service — sufficient when homes had fewer than 10 circuits. Today's Salt Lake Valley homes routinely run EV chargers (9.6kW), hot tubs (5.5kW), air conditioners (4kW), electric ranges (7.5kW), and heat pumps simultaneously. That's 26+ kW of potential demand on a 100-amp (24kW) panel. The math doesn't work.
"We always assess the panel first — before quoting solar, EV chargers, or generators. A panel issue discovered after signing creates change orders. We eliminate that entirely." — Tyler Gordon, Owner & Operator
How to Compare Solar Quotes in Salt Lake Valley Without Getting Burned
Sandy homeowners receive an average of 3–4 solar quotes. Most quotes aren't comparable — one uses 370W panels, another uses 420W. One quotes microinverters, another uses string inverters. One includes a panel upgrade, another adds it as a change order. Here's how to compare them accurately.
Sigenergy vs Tesla Powerwall vs Enphase IQ — Which Battery for Your Salt Lake Valley Home?
All three are excellent. The right choice depends on your solar system size, home electrical architecture, and backup goals. Here is an honest comparison — not a sales pitch.
| Feature | Sigenergy ★ Utah Exclusive | Tesla Powerwall 3 | Enphase IQ10C |
|---|---|---|---|
| Storage Capacity | 5–20kWh scalable | 13.5kWh | 10.08kWh |
| Built-in Inverter | ✓ Hybrid built-in | ✓ Solar inverter | AC-coupled |
| RMP Wattsmart Rebate | ✓ $2,000 flat | ✓ $2,000 | ✓ $2,000 |
| Warranty | 10 years | 10 years | 15 years |
| Available in Utah | Elite Electric ONLY | Multiple dealers | Multiple dealers |
★ 2026 RMP Wattsmart battery rebate (flat tiers): $2,000 for SigenStor & Powerwall 3 (10kW+), $1,000 for Enphase IQ (under 10kW). Elite Electric is Utah's only authorized Sigenergy dealer.
Level 1 vs Level 2 vs DC Fast Charging — What You Actually Need at Home in Sandy
Every EV comes with a Level 1 charger (standard 120V outlet) that adds 3–5 miles per hour. Most Salt Lake Valley commuters drive 35–50 miles daily — requiring 8–14 hours of Level 1 charging every single night. That's cutting it close even when parked overnight.
Our 10-Year Forecast for Salt Lake Valley's Electrical Market
Based on current legislation, utility trends, technology pricing, and housing data. We publish this to help Salt Lake Valley homeowners make better long-term decisions today.
- →RMP net metering rate case likely reduces export credits. Lock in NEM 2.0 by installing solar now.
- →The July 4, 2026 close of the §48E commercial ITC window drove a final commercial solar surge in Sandy.
- →Sandy EV charger installations projected to triple by end of 2027 as next-gen EVs hit the market.
- →Utah likely adopts mandatory EV-ready wiring in new construction — driving panel upgrade demand in Salt Lake Valley's pre-2025 homes.
- →Home battery prices projected to drop 35–45% from 2026 levels. 10kWh systems available sub-$4,000 installed.
- →RMP time-of-use pricing likely mandatory for new Salt Lake Valley solar customers — making battery storage more financially critical.
- →Battery prices keep falling while RMP's flat rebate ($1,000–$2,000) remains budget-limited — early adopters lock in today's rebate before program funds tighten.
- →Sandy homes with 200A+ panels, EV chargers, and battery-backed solar projected to command 8–12% real estate premium.
- →Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology will allow your EV to power your Salt Lake Valley home during outages — requiring bidirectional charger + 200A+ panel. Install both now.

What Salt Lake Valley, UT Homeowners Say About Elite Electric
All reviews are from verified Google customers in Salt Lake Valley and surrounding Salt Lake County communities.
"I searched 'electrician near me' and called three companies. Tyler was the only one who came to my house before quoting. He found my 100A panel was too small for the EV charger and solar I wanted. One flat-rate for everything. $13/month electricity. Best contractor I've ever hired."
"Didn't know which electrician to call. Searched near me and found Elite Electric. Tyler drove to our home the next day, assessed everything, and quoted panel upgrade + Sigenergy battery + solar at one flat rate. Two days to complete. Invoice matched exactly."
"Three winter outages this year — our Generac kicked in within 10 seconds every time. Tyler personally called after installation to confirm everything was working. This is the level of service every contractor should deliver but almost none do."
"Our 1978 Salt Lake Valley home had the original 100A panel. Elite Electric upgraded to 200A, installed a 9kW Enphase system, and added a Sigenergy battery — all in 3 days. Flat-rate quote matched the invoice. First inspection passed first try. We're averaging $11/month on electricity."
"Hot tub wiring, outdoor lighting, and a surge protector all done in one visit. Tyler's crew was professional, on time, and cleaned up perfectly. The permit was handled before they arrived. Exactly what every contractor should be — and almost never is."
"Tyler was honest with us from the first assessment. Told us our panel needed an upgrade before solar would work on our home — something two other companies never mentioned. He quoted both together, one price, one permit. No surprises. That honesty alone earned our business."
