"Matt did an excellent job rewiring my 1900+ square foot home built in 1956. They switched out my panel from the old fuse type to a new panel box. Upgraded the main panel box with a larger amp to handle the upgrade. They were extremely professional polite and always on time. Matt was great about communicating with me the process and needs for the house. I will be hiring MB Electric to do additional electrical work for the installation of a whole house fan. I highly recommend Matt and Abel."

"The owner responded quickly and came to our home for a free estimate within hours. He recommended installing a new outlet to prevent electrical issues down the road. The job was completed within 72hrs (due to the weekend) and we were very happy with the work. I would highly recommend and will use them again for future needs."

"Luis & Carlos they are awesome! They are efficient in there work, worked well as a team. Upgraded the electrical through out the whole house. Installed new plug-ins, light switches, fans in all our rooms. Installed several round ceiling lights in the kitchen, living-room and bedrooms, lights dim low, and high, gives living space elegance. Wall lamps outside back and front. Camera?s & sensor lights. For our dogs installed a pole/lights, unground electrical to the pole, got switches to turn off & on from the inside of the house. We had a problem through out the years where our lights would flicker, they got the PG&E to come out urgently to work in the electrical that goes to our house roof to the street poles. That was a plus, could?ve been hazardous to our home. We have a four bedroom home and two half bath. Took about two months but it was worth it all through the mess, lol. Enjoyed every moment having them, friendly, easy to talk to. Love them?. You won?t regret"

"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."

Customers say: Quick response

"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

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.

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

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.
