"This review is in reference to Job: 559197 Patrikios Papasavas, an electrician with Mister Sparky arrived on the scene and I explained to him that my pool electrical panel had tripped a breaker and would not reset. He said the Standard Repair & Troubleshooting Diagnostic: fee is $306.75 my gut feeling was to cancel but I did not. He went to the house panel and shut off the breaker to the pool pump. I have an older Gould panel without a main breaker feeding a sub-panel; he said he found the bus bars in the main panel burning. I think he meant to say there was some previous arching, but I could be wrong. He opened up the sub panel and said he found the breaker for the pool pump. This breaker was arcing. He turned it off and removed the breaker and found the bus bars burning as well. He said these panels are electrical hazards and must be replaced. The only options were to address these hazards and replace the home master panel. I am no electrician but If a breaker is going bad and yes breakers do go bad and yes I can go to any hardware or electric store and purchase a 30 amp dual breaker. That option was not even suggested, replacing the breaker that was arching and buzzing. Below were the options. Option 1: -Replace burned electrical panels with 1 200 amp main breaker CH-series panel -Update grounding per code -Install surge protection on panel -Run new 240v 30 amp circuit with the insulated ground for pool panel -Pull permit Cost $5,412.75 Option 2: -Replace burned electrical panels with 1 200 amp main breaker CH-series panel -Update grounding per code -Install surge protection on panel -Pull permit Cost # $4,628.75 Option 3: -Replace burned electrical panels with 1 200 amp main breaker CH-series panel -Update grounding per code -Pull permit Cost $3,987.75 He then asked me what option I wanted and they would start the job immediately. I asked him to email me the quotes and he asked why since all in need to do is decide on one and he would get started. I told him that I would have to collect three quotes since this was an expensive project, Mr. Papasavas then asked me what I valued more, safety or money. I looked at him and said they are both equal at those prices, and of course, he did not want to hear that. He then said ok I need to collect $306.75, I made the comment that you have only been here 55 minutes, that’s one **** of an hourly fee. He said he was a Master Electrician, and that is what Mister Sparky charges. He left my home without cleaning up, After he left I noticed he left behind his ladder in the garage, he called me back and asked if he could swing by and pick it up. I of course said yes. He also left behind his floor savers a pair of really nice shoes that he did not return to get. I wonder if I will get a refund since the invoice states: 100% Satisfaction Guarantees Service & Repair Guarantee If you are not 100% satisfied with the service we have provided, we will refund all of your money. If our electricians smoke or swear in your home; are not drug-free; do not wear floor savers or leave your home without cleaning up, you do not pay for the service. I will leave the shoes in my entryway of the house, please ask him to stop by and pick them up. I contacted another reputable electrician and he said I could replace the panels or just the 30 amp double breaker since it was bad. I chose to change the breaker, myself. The cost was $11.00 to buy a matching breaker. I reconnected the saltwater pool panel and switched on the breaker and now the pool pump works and the Saltwater pool system also works beautifully. As they say, buyer beware!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

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.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

You can determine what size generator you need by listing the various appliances it will power during an outage. Write down the start-up watt usage, and then add them all together. 

A 7,500-watt generator will run your refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits without a problem. However, you’ll need an extra 3,000 to 4,500 watts to run your water heater and another 5,000 to 25,000 watts to run your electric furnace. In these instances, a whole-home generator is your best bet for running your critical equipment.
