Mobile homes · Greeneville, TN
Setting a mobile home on new land is exciting, and then you realize nothing works until the electricity does. GPM Electrical does mobile home electrical hookups in Greeneville, TN, and the surrounding area, from the power pole to the panel inside the home. It is one of the two things Nick Foster is called for most, and almost nobody else around here advertises it.
If you are searching for a mobile home electrician near you, here is what a hookup involves, how fast we can move, and what to line up before we arrive.
Every site is different, so the exact scope depends on your lot and your home. In general, getting power to a mobile or manufactured home involves these pieces:
We will tell you on the phone which parts of that list we handle for your setup and which parts you or your power provider handle. Describe your lot and your home, and we will tell you where we fit in.
For a new setup, it helps to call us before the home is delivered. We can tell you where the service point should go so the feeder run is short, the pole or pedestal is easy to reach, and nothing has to be moved after set-up. A single-wide and a double-wide usually need different service sizes, and we will help you work out what your home calls for. Our guide to mobile home power pole requirements explains what inspectors and power providers tend to look for.
The power company does not connect service until the electrical side passes inspection and the equipment meets their rules. Those rules can differ from one provider to the next. Call your power provider early to ask about their requirements for meter bases, pole height, and clearances, and tell us what they say. We work to those requirements so the connection is not held up at the last step.
A 200-amp service is a common size for a home with electric heat, an air conditioner, and typical appliances, though your home may call for something different. Our write-up on what a 200-amp power pole means for a mobile home is a good starting point.
We move quickly when the site is ready. On one hookup near Greeneville, we quoted the job the same day the homeowner called and finished the work three days later, in just a few hours on site. That is not a promise for every job. Permits, inspections, the power company’s schedule, and ground conditions all play a part. But we will not leave you waiting for a call back.
We work in Greene County first, including Greeneville, Afton, Mosheim, Tusculum, Chuckey, Baileyton, and Limestone. We also take hookups in Cocke County around Newport and Parrottsville, and in Hamblen County around Morristown. If you are farther out, call us and ask. See our service areas page for drive times from Greeneville.
Hookup costs vary a lot. The big factors are how far the home sits from the service point, whether the wire runs overhead or underground, the service size, the condition of the home’s own panel, and permit and inspection steps. We do not post prices online. Call us with your lot details, and we will tell you the price before any work starts. Our guide on the cost to hook up electric to a mobile home breaks down what drives the number.

That depends on the home, the lot, and what your power provider allows. Many setups use a service pole or pedestal near the home. Call us with the details, and we will tell you what is likely; then you can confirm the provider's rules.
Often, yes. Older homes need a closer look at the home's panel and wiring first. If something inside the home needs repair, our mobile home electrical repair page explains how we handle it.
Usually, yes. A permit and inspection are normally part of getting power turned on, and the rules differ by county and city. We confirm what applies to your address before we schedule.
Know where the home will sit, mark where you want the service point, and call your power provider to ask about their requirements. Photos of the lot help us give you a better phone estimate.
Yes. If the home's panel needs to be replaced as part of the hookup, we handle that too. Our panel upgrade page covers that work in detail.
