Meter stack installations and upgrades
Modern, space saving solutions for multi unit properties that allow individual metering.
Learn more →Tarzana spans hillside homes and dense apartment blocks along Ventura, so the work splits between whole home rewires and building wide service upgrades. Both go through LADBS with LADWP on the disconnect.
Tarzana is named for Edgar Rice Burroughs' Tarzana Ranch, which he bought in 1919 and later subdivided. Some early parcels became small farms, and areas like Melody Acres still feel more spacious than a typical Valley tract. Postwar ranch homes fill most of the flats north of Ventura, while the area south of the boulevard climbs into the Santa Monica Mountains toward Topanga State Park, with mid-century and newer homes on winding streets. Medical offices cluster near the hospital, and apartments line Reseda Boulevard and Ventura.
Hillside homes south of Ventura often have original wiring hidden behind decades of remodeling, and the rewires we do there are planned around finished walls, tight crawlspaces and pool equipment downhill from the panel. In the flats, older ranch homes call for panel replacements and capacity for heat pumps and EVs. Apartment and condo owners near the boulevards ask about meter upgrades and shared charging. The neighborhood draws steady buyer interest, and pre-sale inspections frequently set our projects in motion.
Tarzana hillside homes south of Ventura often hide original wiring behind several remodels, and a planned rewire replaces it with minimal wall damage.
How we handle it →Apartment and condo buildings along Reseda Boulevard and Ventura in Tarzana often need their original meter stacks replaced.
How we handle it →Postwar ranch homes in the Tarzana flats usually need more service for heat pumps, pools and EV chargers.
How we handle it →Tarzana homes built in the 1950s and 1960s often still have Zinsco or Federal Pacific panels flagged during pre-sale inspections.
How we handle it →Electrical work in Tarzana is permitted through LA Dept of Building and Safety, and the service is energized by LADWP. We handle the permit application, the plan check where one is required, the inspection scheduling and the utility coordination as part of the job.
A rewire in an occupied Tarzana hillside home is permitted as one project and inspected in stages, rough wiring before walls close and a final at the end. Service changes add the LADWP disconnect before installation and the reconnect after LADBS signs off. For apartment buildings, LADWP reviews meter changes first, and we coordinate the outage with the manager and tenants.
Usually yes. We work room by room, fishing new cable through walls and ceilings from the attic and crawlspace, and restore power to finished areas at the end of each day where we can. Some days are noisier and dustier than others, and there will be short outages when circuits move to the new panel. Plaster repair is limited to small access openings, which we plan before starting.
Have a licensed electrician confirm the finding and quote the fix. Common flags in Tarzana are Zinsco or Federal Pacific panels, double tapped breakers, missing grounding and amateur subpanels. We can do the work under an LADBS permit and provide documentation for both parties. Sometimes buyers and sellers agree on a credit instead, but a finaled permit tends to settle the question.
Electrical permits in Tarzana are issued by LA Dept of Building and Safety. Morff Electric handles the permit application, the plan check where one is required, and the inspection scheduling as part of the job.
Tarzana is served by LADWP. On a service upgrade or a meter stack the utility has to disconnect and reconnect the service, and Morff Electric coordinates that scheduling so the outage stays as short as possible.
