Locally owned. No subs. Cost is determined by the job. Travel charges may apply. Extra charges for after hours service. Ask about Angie's List discount. Also services portions of Madison County. Award winning. Additional phone - (317) 834-1922.

"Mike Allen quoted $1600 upgrade my outdoor wiring for an Outdoor Kitchen project next to our inground pool. The job scope included pulling a new 100 amp supply line, replace old wadsworth panel, trace and identify each circuit, install GFCI per code for the pool/spa circuits and wire additional outlets poolside for an Outdoor Kitchen project. Job scope also included moving a water heater circuit to another subpanel. Pat showed up promptly to do the work, completed the water heater circuit, pulled the new supply line, installed new subpanel and leaves with the Outdoor Kitchen circuits incomplete and exposed to weather. Pat called and indicated he would stop back in a couple days though never returned to finish the job. I had to finish the wiring for the poolside outlets so that my family could use the pool safely. I paid White's Electric for electical work I assumed was done per code. I now understand White's Electric installed AFCI breakers in all the pool circuits because they said there is not a dedicated neutral. I recognize this can be a problem with older homes. However, I consider it unprofessional and unacceptable for White's Electric to deceptively install AFCI circuit breakers that do not comply with code and not inform the home owner. I will be following up with the Better Business Bureau and pursuing White's Electric to make right on the poor quality work completed so far."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

In many cases, you’ll need a permit or basic inspection to install one of these large generators. Since they include significant alterations to your home electrical system and many produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require jumping through a few hoops for general safety purposes. Your installer may be able to help you with these permits.

When properly maintained, natural gas generators can last a long time, as much as 20 to 40 years. They have relatively few needs compared to generators with other fuel types. However, the generator’s lifespan ultimately depends on how often the generator is used and for how long it’s left running.

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.
