"I hired M B Electric to install a NEMA 14-50 outlet in my garage for my EV charger and had a great experience. Two technicians came to my home, arrived on time, and handled the job thoroughly and professionally. They inspected the setup carefully and explained everything clearly before starting the work. Since my garage had aluminum wiring, they chose the safer approach of running a separate copper wire to ensure a proper and reliable installation. The work was clean, the outlet was mounted securely, and everything was tested before they finished. They also answered my questions and made sure the charger was working properly. I appreciate their professionalism and quality workmanship. I highly recommend M B Electric for EV charger or outlet installations. Thank you for the excellent service!"

"Hector came by and gave me a quote. Explained what I needed done to setup my level 2 EV Charger from Electrify America. They came out, showed up early. Got everything done on a timely manner, Even hardwired the station, instead of installing an outlet. Hook up my Car before they left and everything is charging and working great. Great business, Great employees."

"I needed a electrician to help me as I'm selling my house and needed some things fixed. I called cosmic comfort and they were very polite. The lady got someone out for me the very next morning. They sent me text messages for reminders and even sent me a message that he was on his way. The young man who came was fantastic! He fixed all of my outlets, fixed wiring issues and installed a ceiling fan and mounted the remote to my wall. Not only was he very knowledgeable he was very polite and professional. Fixed all my issues and was fast. I definitely would recommend any one needed a electrician to use this company. I will definitely be using them again for any other electrical needs."

"We had a great experience with Fox Electric. Tony went above and beyond with his customer service and the level of work was high quality. He walked us through every step of the process when we upgraded our main panel to a 200 amp service. All that and his bid was considerably under what we had received from others."

"Reliable Electric did a great job installing the plug and new GFCI breaker for my EV car charger according to the national codes. They arrived on time and worked efficiently to complete the work. The pricing was fair, and there were no surprise costs. Overall, I highly recommend Reliable Electric for any electrical jobs and would hire them again. They speak English, Punjabi and Hindi!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.
