"We are so very thrilled to have found Ross with BayArea Electrician! We were initially in contact for a panel upgrade, but had the opportunity to work him him even sooner, owing to an electrical emergency (half of our home went dark due to a fault in our knob & tube-wired home). Ross and team were extremely prompt, super courteous, and quickly re-established power for us at an extremely reasonable price point. The larger project we had planned is currently in progress, and things are going perfectly. It's such a relief to have found an electrician we can trust with projects large and small. Thank you, BayArea Electrician!"

"Excellent service. I needed to upgrade my electric panel, Ben did an excellent job very professional. Installing switches, circuit breaker panels, relays, and other electrical control and distribution equipment was the right call. I look at several electricians with reasonable prices and CA Electrical Group was definitely the right call. I will highly recommend CA Electrical Group to all my friends. What was important to me was his daily commitment to start and finish the job the dates we agreed on."

"It went extremely well, except for a minor misunderstanding with the inspection date by PGE. I had to call them myself to set up the appointment; something I thought Val was going to take care of. At any rate, his work was exceptional and I'm thinking of giving him a call for some current electrical needs that I have. His attention to aesthetically pleasing and neat workmanship is his strength, along with an outstanding electrical fund of knowledge.

"Ryan O. was the best. He presented himself professionally, as he review the job, Ryan explained everything with the step by step process of the project. He explained their portion of the work, from the time they get to my place thru the swift approval of the building inspector. He explained what we need and recommended what we don t need to help me save money. He also prep us up for future Solar Panels as well as Electrical Vehicle junction box connection. The connection will make it possible without the need of breaking the walls again, just to add either of the two service. As his workers (Jesse,Hector, George and Miguel) came in early, they were really quiet, knowing that my wife will be asleep from working the previous evening. Their setup was well organized and during the work they kept the area very clean. They also organize/ planned their work inside the house to minimize the disturbance to us. They communicated with radio or cell phones so not to yell to each other. They politely ask if they can come in and explained to us what work need to be done inside the house. Ryan and Samantha (admin) worked closely with us to complete the eDoc invoice proposal making sure the change was in writing and accurate for my Signature. My wife and I are so very please that we highly recommend Electra-Comm for any work that you need. We will definitely hire these guys again. Best decision I ever made. Thank you again guys."

"We remodeled our kitchen with Gaetaway Electric, and let me say how impressed and pleased we are! Not only was Jacob professional, but he was also very communicative and detailed with every step. He is very knowledgeable in the electrical field, and gave us several different options and ideas. We were very hesitant on remodeling because we knew that with a lot of contractor work, it can take longer than what is expected. But Jacob was sure to finish on time, and we didnâ t experience any delays! We truly feel that this is a passion to Jacob, and he definitely goes above and beyond, and it shows in his work. Not only will he be our go to person for any of our electrical needs, but we have already referred him to our family and friends! Hands down, excellent service!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

To install an outlet from existing wiring, you’ll need to choose a location where you can already access existing wiring. The easiest way to do this is to install an outlet on the other side of the wall of an existing outlet. 

Since the wiring is already in place, all you have to do is connect a new cable to the existing wiring and then connect the correct wires through the wall—to the new electrical outlet. Place your new outlet into the opening in the wall and then connect the correct wires to the appropriate terminal screws.

Yes, you can convert a gas water heater to an electric one, but it is a complex process. You will need to ensure there is adequate power for the new electric unit, as they require more power than gas models. The project also involves safely closing off the gas lines and ventilation, and some cities may require a permit for the conversion. The cost can range from $1,500 to $4,100, depending on the installation scope, plumbing and electrical work, and the water heater model. For an accurate quote, it's best to contact a local professional. Also, be aware that your monthly utility bills may increase after the conversion, as natural gas is typically cheaper than electricity.

A low-voltage landscape lighting system using 15 to 20 LED lights for six hours a night will average about $5 to $10 a month in electricity costs. This is considered affordable lighting for many homeowners. Most modern landscape lights use LED bulbs, but some older styles may use halogen or incandescent bulbs, which can cost up to five times more than LEDs in electrical costs.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.
