Long distribution runs and mountain winters put standby power and heat tracing at the top of the list here.
Local conditions
Mountain weather and long distribution feeders mean the power goes out here more often than it does on the valley floor, and stays out longer. The practical response is a generator inlet and a properly wired transfer switch installed ahead of the season, along with a decision made in advance about which circuits are worth backing up.
Frozen pipes, ice-dammed roof edges and exposed water lines are ordinary winter problems here. Self-regulating heating cable carries real load and belongs on its own protected circuit with a proper controller, sized to the length of cable being installed, rather than run off the nearest receptacle.
The 100A services on the older streets were installed when these houses were not heated electrically. Adding baseboards, then a heat pump, then a hot tub to that same service is where the capacity problems begin, and a single upgrade is usually less expensive than working around the limit twice.
