Quick answer
Mobile home electrical service in Oklahoma City covers the outside service equipment, a meter pole or pedestal with the main disconnect, the feeder cable that runs to the home, and the panel inside, where neutral and ground must stay separated. We repair and replace poles and pedestals, correct feeders and grounding, repair panels and circuits, and coordinate with the utility when the meter has to be pulled.
How manufactured home wiring differs
What mobile home electrical service involves
In a site-built house, the meter and main panel are attached to the building. In a manufactured home, the meter and main disconnect are usually on a separate pole or pedestal near the home, and a feeder, often four wires, runs from there to the panel inside. That panel is a subpanel in code terms: its neutral and ground bars must be kept separate, and the home needs a proper equipment ground back to the service.
Most of the problems we see come from that arrangement: a rotted or leaning service pole, a pedestal damaged by a mower or a vehicle, a feeder with the wrong number of conductors, neutral and ground bonded inside the home, or corroded connections where the feeder enters the home. Each one can cause flickering, shocks or dead circuits, and all of them are repairable.

- Panel condition Unavailable breakers may mean a new panel.
- Utility coordination Pole and pedestal work needs a meter pull.
- Trenching A new underground feeder needs a trench.

Sub-jobs this page covers
Pedestals, panels and feeders
Service pole and pedestal
Wooden service poles rot at the ground line and lean, and metal pedestals get hit by mowers and vehicles or rust at the base. Either can pull on the feeder and the utility connection. We replace the pole or pedestal with a new one rated for the service size, set the main disconnect and grounding electrode, and coordinate the utility meter pull and reset. The new equipment is set where it is easy to reach and clear of driveways, mowing paths and anywhere a vehicle might back into it.
Mobile home panel repair
The panel inside a manufactured home is often an older model with limited space and breakers that are hard to find. We replace failed breakers with listed ones, repair burned connections, separate the neutral and ground bars where they were bonded, and replace the panel when parts are unavailable or damage is extensive. Every circuit is labeled so the next breaker trip is easy to trace. We also check the connections where the feeder lands in the panel, since movement and moisture loosen them over the years, and confirm the panel cover and knockouts are closed.
Feeder and ground corrections
The feeder from the pedestal to the home must have separate neutral and ground conductors, and the connection at the home must be protected from weather and movement. Older installs sometimes have a three-wire feeder, which leaves the home without a proper equipment ground and can make metal parts of the home unsafe during a fault. We replace or correct the feeder, protect it where it enters the home, and test the grounding from the pedestal to the panel. Skirting and steps are reinstalled once the work is done.
Oklahoma City conditions
Manufactured homes around Oklahoma City
Manufactured homes are common across the Oklahoma City metro, on private lots at the edges of the city and in communities throughout the area, and many are older units on their original service equipment. That equipment spends decades outdoors through spring storms, summer heat and winter ice. We handle the house side and the service side together, so an owner does not have to coordinate separate trades for the pole, the feeder and the panel.

Call any hour. We check the service equipment, the feeder and the panel together.
