Electrical Upgrades
New kitchens often need more electrical capacity for induction ranges and appliances. Kitchen circuits need GFCI and AFCI protection. If your remodel is part of an addition that increases floor area by 50% or more, Union City requires the overhead electrical service drop to be placed underground (Municipal Code 12.24.055).
