Full Electrical Project for a New Restaurant in Philadelphia

Custom Electrical Work by JHN Contractor LLC

We just finished a complete electrical installation for a new restaurant in Philadelphia.
The owner needed a system that was safe, efficient, and stylish, ready to handle a busy kitchen and dining area.

Power and Lighting Designed for Restaurants

Built for Heavy Load and Safety

  • Installed a dedicated circuit panel sized to support high-demand kitchen equipment.

  • Ran separate circuits for ovens, refrigeration, and dishwashers to avoid overload.

  • Added surge protectors and GFCI outlets to meet code and protect expensive gear.

Smart Lighting and Energy Efficiency

Creates the Right Mood

  • Set up dimmable LED lighting in the dining area to control ambiance.

  • Installed spotlights over the bar and accent walls to highlight décor.

Cuts Down Operating Costs

  • Used motion sensors in storage rooms and bathrooms to reduce wasted power.

  • Chose high-efficiency fixtures that lower monthly electric bills.

Code Compliance and Inspections

Ready for City Approvals

  • Made sure all wiring met Philadelphia electrical codes, from breaker sizing to outlet spacing.

  • Passed all inspections on the first try, avoiding delays for opening.

Integrating Technology

For a Smooth Operation

  • Wired the POS stations and kitchen screens on their own circuits to prevent drops or resets.

  • Set up outlets and wiring for security cameras and WiFi routers, so everything was hidden but easy to reach.

Clean Finishes that Match the Design

Industrial and Modern

  • Used metal conduit exposed along the ceiling for an industrial look that matched the restaurant’s theme.

  • Installed black outlets and switch plates to blend into dark accent walls.

Completed On Time, Open for Business

The project took four weeks, including work with the HVAC team and the plumber.
The restaurant opened as planned, fully powered and inspected, ready for customers.
