"We were very lucky to find Emrom Electric and Emmanuel Mbisse. Our 100+ year old house in Berkeley needed complete rewiring after a short circuit and inspection. Emrom was able to start this huge job within a week or two, saving us a lot of money in tenants' dislocation expenses. Emmanuel was a pleasure to work with, providing explanations and giving us options along the way. He got the job done faster than we had hoped in a good, professional manner for a fair price. We would recommend Emrom to anyone and will definitely be contacting them for any future electrical work."

"I had an outstanding experience with Devil’s Mountain Electrical. From start to finish, their professionalism was evident in every interaction. The team arrived on time, communicated clearly, and handled the job with impressive efficiency. The quality of their work exceeded my expectations. everything was done safely, neatly, and to a high standard. What really stood out was the owner’s thoughtfulness. He took the time to answer my questions, explained what he was doing, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the process. It’s rare to find a company that combines skill, liability, and genuine care for their customers. I highly recommend Devil’s Mountain to anyone in need of electrical services."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Basic smart light switches are available for as little as $20. If you can install them yourself, it’s a home upgrade that won’t break the bank. Many homeowners view them as a worthwhile investment for the additional convenience and security they can offer. However, they are a little more tricky to install than standard light switches, so if you don’t have the electrical knowledge to do a DIY job, unless you need a lighting upgrade, remember these are a nice-to-have rather than a necessary purchase.

Replacing your electrical meter box is critical because it helps prevent damage to your home’s electrical system or possible safety hazards. Plus, you won’t have to deal with frequent power tripping, flickering lights, or the scorched scents that an old or damaged meter box may cause.

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.

Typically, when a 3-way switch only works when one switch is on, this is one of the most telltale indicators that the switch has gone bad (although this could also be the result of faulty or loose wiring). To diagnose the issue, toggle each switch until the light comes on. Once it’s on, toggle each switch separately again; the switch that doesn’t turn the light off is the bad switch. 

While most electrical items can be plugged into a GFCI outlet, some appliances with internal or stationary motors, such as refrigerators, vent fans, and fluorescent lighting, can cause nuisance tripping. This happens because they experience a small, normal amount of current leakage, which can cause the GFCI to trip even when the appliance is working correctly. Although this is not a safety hazard, it can be inconvenient and may cause the GFCI outlet to wear out faster. For this reason, it is often better to plug these types of appliances into a standard outlet. Additionally, electrical circuits over 100 feet long can sometimes cause tripping. Some appliances, like hair dryers, have their own built-in GFCI protection, so connecting them to a standard outlet is fine.
