Victor Electro, Inc. is a family owned business for almost 30 years. We have numerous clients in the commercial and industrial industries but decided to branch out to residential to expand our customer base. We are licensed and insured in the states of PA,NJ, and DE. Mainly, we have only done residential for family members and friends, but want to help other homeowners achieve their electrical needs as well. I'll offer fair pricing with, most importantly, the guarantee that everything will be done right and safe.

"Very well. Victor is very good. Explained everything while he was installing. He left after testing it and verifying that it was working properly. He is one of the best I have hired to provide service for us.."

The issue was not with the install but with a piece of hardware we were using to distribute the OTA signal wirelessly. Even though Patrick knew it wasn't an antenna issue he took the time to walk through a diagnosis with me."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You should never unplug or touch a buzzing outlet. If there are appliances plugged in that are causing the buzzing, wait until the appliance is turned off (or turn it off yourself) and then unplug it from the outlet. Test the outlet by plugging in something that won’t use much power—a small lamp works well. If the outlet still buzzes, have a pro investigate why.

Many homes have a 200-amp service, which requires a 2-inch electrical meter riser. Larger homes or homes that require more energy for several appliances and devices may have a 400-amp service. For 400-amp service, opt for a 4-inch electrical meter riser.

Labor, materials, job complexity, and urgency affect costs for switches and outlets; expect from $150 for simple sets to $600+ for significant upgrades.

No, because amps and volts measure very different things. However, you can use basic equations to find amps or volts by using data about one of the measurements to calculate the other.

You can convert a gas heater to electric, but it isn’t as simple as swapping a plug or two. First of all, you need to make sure there’s adequate power to the unit, as electric units require much higher power amounts versus gas. Then, you need to close off the gas lines and ventilation. Make sure you don’t also need a permit for an electric water heater—some cities require it. Making the switch can cost upwards of $1,500.
