"Excellent father and son team replaced old smoke alarms throughout the house and hard wired them with zero damage to ceilings. They showed me how the alarms will work for good peace of mind. Also fixed wiring to my backyard outdoor lights and got them up and functioning again. Great work on both projects!"

Small shop available for any type of electrical work and service. Small shop prices too. NC licensed #31530 and Insured, COI available at request. Very easy to work with. Open to business deals as well. We would love to be of service to you or your business if needed. All usual perks apply as your phone book ad guys - free estimates, professional vetted employees, drug testing and safety program. I am an OSHA and CPR instructor so this is part of every day safety for us. I have been in the business for 24 years and owned my own company since 2015. Here is a sample of our work: - Residential and commercial service in homes, condos, factories, commercial businesses, etc. - FREE 'water in power' test. ESD (electric shock drowning) is a very real danger. No strings attached. - F45 fitness - Modern Pet Spa - Rock Box - Pet supplies Plus - Apartments - Lighting plans and footcandle CAD drawings - Duke energy rebates - Hundreds of others and references available. One of our BEST jobs recently: I was able to work a duke rebates program with the right light and the right facility and managed to get the cost of each light, labor and materials, down to $2.00 a fixture for the customer. That is how hard we work for each and every customer. Thank you for visiting! Hope we can be of assistance. Jeff, Zenith Electric 910-789-3144

"Mr. Riecken did a quick and fantastic job! He installed a motion activated security light and a camera giving my property protection and me, peace of mind. Would I hire him again? Absolutely!! Infact, I have already spoken to him about more lights and cameras on my house."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

Potential benefits of using a natural gas generator include reducing your carbon footprint, lower likelihood of carbon monoxide exposure, budget-friendly operating costs, and low-maintenance, continuous fuel supply. Some possible drawbacks, though, include higher initial installation costs, dependency on a natural gas supply, and installation complexity. Keep in mind that pros and cons will vary based on the type and brand of natural gas generator. 

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

No, you cannot plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your home. Plugging in a generator without an interlocking kit, extension cord, or wall outlet receptacle is incredibly dangerous and can cause back-feeding—power from the generator back-feeds into utility lines. Also, if the main power comes back on while your generator is on, it could damage the generator and cause a house fire.
