Crowley still lands the first lug himself
DUAL STATE ELECTRIC SERVICES, LLC is Edward P Crowley’s trade shop at 32 19Th St, Lowell, MA 01850.
Two states of a circuit: open and closed. Dual State is named for that, not for a marketing map. Edward still pulls the meter cover, still torques the first lug, and still writes the path so the inspector is looking at a job — not a story.
The crew works Lowell mill housing, small shops, and the additions that keep showing up on two-family lots. If you want a rotating franchise tech, this is the wrong door. If you want a number that Edward actually rings, hang the tag on the contact page.
Lockout first, then the lug gets torque
Same four beats as the shop. Nothing gets hot until the last one.
Kill
Lockout, meter check, written path before a conductor moves.
Pull
Old work out, new home-runs in, no mystery splices in the bay.
Land
Lugs torqued, bars labeled, devices set to the plan.
Energize
Prove the circuit, call the inspector, hang the tag as done.
What the panel tells us before we cut
Do you upgrade 100A services?
Yes. We size the weatherhead, meter, and interior panel as one path — not a sticker on an overloaded can.
Will Dual State pull the Lowell permit?
When the job needs it, we file, we meet the inspector, and we do not hide extras in the last invoice line.
Is this an emergency shop?
If a circuit is live and wrong, leave the number. Edward calls back from 19th Street — not a national queue.
Two-family mill housing?
That is most of the neighborhood. Shared services, old cloth, and panels that were never meant for dryers plus heat pumps — we plan the split first.
