"Our HVAC company installed a new heat pump but said we needed an electrician for the electrical hookup and a panel upgrade to support it. Stas got us on the schedule within a few days. Enrique did the work - new 40-amp breaker, disconnect box outside, and ran the whip to the unit. He coordinated with the HVAC crew so everything was ready for their startup. No issues at inspection."

"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."

"James is an awesome owner and wonderful to work with! He sent Danny and another person to complete our lighting job. They did A LOT of work installing recessed lighting in 3 rooms and installed under cabinet lighting in our kitchen. They finished all in 1 day and we were very pleased with the work they did! We will definitely be hiring Bay Area Electric again and I will definitely ask for Danny!"

"I enjoyed the entire process when working with Zarco Electrical. They completely understood my project and made thoughtful recommendations as well. I never got competitive bids because I trusted the work ethic and fairness of Elvis Zarco and his team. Thank you very much!"

"I could not recommend Lightning Electric more! When the owner came out for quote, he was informed, shared info I otherwise wouldn't have known. Was creative in finding solutions to the problems I was having and was pleasant in general. His team spent the entire day at our house working to address our problems. I was impressed with their professionalism and thorough approach to our issues. Even though there was a few over sites and mistakes, their response in addressing them was immediate."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Most standard residential water heaters, which are typically around 40 gallons and use 240 volts and between 3,500 and 5,500 watts, require a 30-amp, two-pole circuit breaker. For smaller, point-of-use water heaters using 120 volts and between 1,500 and 3,000 watts, a 30-amp breaker is also often adequate. However, some models may have different needs; units that use more watts than average may require a 40-amp breaker, while smaller units might only need a 20-amp breaker. Newer, tankless, or more energy-efficient models can also require a higher amperage. Having the correct breaker size is crucial for safe and efficient operation, so it's best to consult a licensed electrician to determine the specific needs of your water heater.

Yes, you must use an extension cord specifically rated for outdoor use to power outdoor lights, such as Christmas lights. Extension cords intended for indoor use lack the protective properties to withstand exposure to outdoor elements. To safely hang and power lights outside your house or in your yard, always connect them to an outdoor power source using an outdoor-rated extension cord.

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.

Wiring a light switch wrong can cause a fire if the incorrect wiring causes arcing, meaning the current jumps uncontrolled from one conductor to another. Loose wires or worn wires that are not repaired or replaced can cause arcing. If you’re not 100% sure you can do the job safely, don’t attempt to wire a light switch on your own.

In addition to grounding your outlets, you may want to hire an electrician for the following:

These additional electrical services ensure that your home’s electrical system is in working order and will accommodate your ground outlets.
