"John from City Wide Electric was incredibly responsive—he quickly reached out, provided a clear quote, and scheduled the work without delay. He arrived on time on the day of the job and worked efficiently and professionally throughout. The project involved removing two recessed lighting ballasts from our kitchen and installing six new can lights. John completed the electrical work in about 2.5 hours. Shortly after, his drywall crew arrived to mud and texture the ceiling, seamlessly blending the new areas with the existing surface. Both John and the drywall team did an outstanding job. They were respectful of our space and left the kitchen spotless, just as clean as when they arrived. Best of all, everything was completed in a single day. I highly recommend City Wide Electric for their quality workmanship, professionalism, and excellent customer service. "

Scott has passed the highest level of electrical examinations in California to become a state certified journeyman electrician and licensed, bonded and insured electrical contractor. Modern Edison, Inc., offers a wide range of electrical services including complete home rewire, additions and remodels, electrical power and lighting installations, troubleshooting and repair, energy efficiency and renewable energy, internet, cable TV, telephone, security cameras/lighting, and more. Easy to work with and on time, Scott provides very clean and professional installations, following all codes and safety regulations. Scott includes a warranty for all his work and guarantees the highest level of safety and durability.

"Working with the owner, Scott, was really great. He is attentive, patient with all my questions and takes the time to discuss every detail. His pricing was also competitive. However, the installation of the main panel itself left me frustrated. Even though the work was completed and everything is working, the messy wiring inside the brand new panel left a lot to be desired. Admittedly, I don't ever see it, but another electrician that is adding a circuit to it now has to deal with the mess where it could have been so much cleaner and easier to work with. "

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Unless you’re a licensed electrician with extensive experience in upgrading electric panels, you must hire a professional for any electrical work. A licensed electrician will make sure your breaker is upgraded safely and in compliance with local codes. Your pro will also take care of any permits and inspections that are needed.

You can add an electrical outlet outside by sending a wire through the wall from an existing interior outlet. Without having to open up walls, you can thread a new electrical cable from the existing outlet through the wall and to the exterior. You’ll need to cut a hole in the siding to place your new outlet. Ensure that your outdoor outlet is a GFCI outlet (ground fault circuit interrupter outlet) per the National Electrical Code. It’s best to hire an electrician to add an outdoor outlet unless you have previous electrical experience.

The key difference between a circuit breaker versus a surge protector is that circuit breakers shield your entire electrical system from overcurrents and faults, while surge protectors defend your electronic devices against voltage surges and spikes. A circuit breaker interrupts the flow of electricity in a circuit when it detects an overload or short circuit, protecting the wiring from damage and preventing fires. In contrast, a surge protector shields electronic devices from voltage spikes, such as those caused by lightning strikes or power surges, preventing damage to the device’s inner mechanics.

Yes, you can put a GFCI outlet in almost any electrical outlet location. As long as the outlet is wired correctly back to a circuit breaker, you can likely replace the existing outlet with a GFCI outlet.

You should never plug a normal 120v appliance into a special 240v outlet, as it can quickly burn out the appliance. This will cause irreparable damage to the appliance and, in worse case scenarios, cause damage to your circuit breaker. Check your appliance’s rating before plugging it into a 220v outlet to avoid electrical disaster.
