"I'm new to the area and needed a good electrician for a unique problem. I did an extensive search online and selected Azgard Electric. Boy was I lucky to find them! I have lots of experience with electricians and other contractors and the guys from Azgard are top notch. After careful analysis of my situation Jonny (the owner) was able to quickly identify and solve my problem. He wasn't there to try to up sale me, he was there to help me out as an expert electrician and make sure my lighting worked properly. You could really see that he truly cared about his customers and doing what was right and needed. A very trustworthy guy who is passionate about his job. Azgard showed up to the job on time and was great at communicating with me about the job, including when they would show up and the cost (which was very reasonable). In addition to providing outstanding service, Jonny and his team are extremely nice and friendly local guys who were a pleasure to work with. The business is family owned and operated, which is quite evident by the way they treat their customers - they treat you like family! I highly recommend Azgard Electric to anyone who is looking for a very high quality electrician in Scottsdale."

Family owned business with over 30 years experience. We do not sub-contract our work. All work will be done by a licensed professional electrician. We accept cash, check, card, and have financing options. Once the work is complete we will collect payment in full.

"They came out and fixed our problem quickly, they charged me 1850.00 to change 6 fuses .i was out of town so I couldn’t do it myself. These fuses cost roughly 30.00 each, I believe they took advantage of our desperate situation.they did the same for the rest of the mall also , someone stole our electric disconnects so I called on behalf of the mall , they charged everyone else roughly 4800.00 to add the stolen fuses . This is not a company that is part of the community, terrible business practices with the gouging.. there was also spares in the bottom of the box and they took them and charged the others for new ones"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Whole-house generators can last 20 to 40 years with normal operation and proper maintenance. If you look up the specifications for your generator, you may be able to find a lifespan rated in hours of operation. Life expectancy will vary depending on how often and for how long you use the generator each year. Choosing a fuel with low impact like natural gas or diesel can help generators last as long as possible.

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency.
