Welcome to Active Cabling & Communications, LLC. We provide the best electrical work for all our residential and commercial clients. We promise to serve our clients with the highest quality and the most convenient pricing.

"I really enjoyed the work by these Networking/Ethernet folks. A different provider had quoted me an $800-1000 project and said I needed Cat 6 cabling for ethernet, when really my existing Cat 5E was fine. All it took was ~$100 and one hour for parts and labor and I now have ethernet ports in every room that support Gigabit speed. Thanks again! Couldn't be happier with this."

Ready to cut the cord, and rabbit ears aren?t cutting it? Cables hanging all over your house, and you want them to disappear? WiFi just doesn?t reach upstairs? You?ve come to the right place! My services include: TV and FM antenna installation and repair, including in attics; old school cable fishing and concealment; installation and repair of coaxial, Ethernet, telephone, speaker, and other low voltage wiring, including repurposing existing cabling; TV wall mounting and cable concealment, especially difficult or unusual locations; limited satellite dish installation, repair, and removal, including Free-To-Air (FTA) dishes. (Sorry, no large C-band dishes, no warranty work on subscription service equipment.) I'm not an equipment dealer, so I won't be trying to sell you anything. I can provide a few items, as a convenience (e.g., antennas, bulk cable), but I?m ready to work with, or advise you on the purchase of your own equipment (e.g., routers, security cameras).

"Ken is a terrific worker and knowledgeable problem solver who took on my old house and my cramped crawl space without even a hint of hesitation or complaint. He worked efficiently and without a pause for more than 10 hours to get a job done in record time----it was much more involved than we thought, and he persisted and got it done, and done right. Thank you Ken! He's a real rarity amongst workmen, absolutely thorough, trustworthy and good natured in the face of all difficulties! A real gem, I'm so glad I hired him!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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

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.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

If your home already has a grinder pump and you’re still noticing issues (like frequently clogged toilets and sinks), it could be time to upgrade your grinder pump. Start by checking your existing horsepower. If there are four or fewer people living in your home, using a 1/2-horsepower grinder pump should be sufficient. Larger households should consider investing in a 1-horsepower grinder pump to maximize wastewater removal efforts.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window.
