"Palmer electric installed a level 2 EV charger in my garage. After they did the wiring to the breaker box downstairs I realized my AC went out. I called an hvcac company luckily they came out and checked it just a few hours after Palmer left and turns out the motherboard on my furnace is now fried!! The owner of Palmer electric took 0 responsibility, saying that just because the furnace motherboard fried while the electrician was wiring the breaker doesn’t mean they are responsible. I had Smart Electric come out and analyze the job and they said Palmer should of taken accountability."

"Hurricane solutions installed a home generator for us two years ago. It was explained to the salesman and the person that came out to review the job that we had a solar edge solar panels with batteries that was connected to the grid and that the batteries powered the house first before switching to the grid when there was no sun. Everyone from the company assured us that they knew how to install the generator. They wired it without connecting to the solar panel control box. It has not powered the house since it was installed because the generator can sense the power in the batteries which are not allowed to go below 10% as not to ruin them. Hurricane solutions has refused to fix the problems they created. I spent over a year contacting them dozens of times with them about their improper installation with no results. They have shown that they will not fix problems that they have created due to their ignorance on how to install a generator into a modern solar system. Dennis F. "

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Syracuse's heavy snowfall and seasonal humidity can impact electrical systems. Moisture intrusion is common in basements and exterior outlets, so weatherproof enclosures and GFCI protection are essential. During winter, increased use of space heaters and generators can overload circuits. According to local inspectors, annual checks of outdoor wiring and surge protectors before storm season help prevent damage and ensure your electrical system remains safe and reliable.

Helpful?

In Syracuse, most electrical projects—including new wiring, panel upgrades, or adding circuits—require an electrical permit from the City of Syracuse Codes Enforcement. Projects must comply with the latest National Electrical Code and local amendments. Larger jobs require inspection by an approved third-party electrical inspector. Minor repairs, like replacing an existing outlet, often don't need a permit, but always verify requirements with local authorities before starting your project.

Helpful?

In Syracuse, homeowners often skip required permits, use non-compliant materials, or hire unlicensed contractors—mistakes that can lead to failed inspections or safety hazards. According to the City of Syracuse Codes Enforcement, not documenting the permit process or neglecting electrical inspection requirements are frequent issues. Always verify your electrician's license, use code-approved materials, and keep thorough records from permit application to final inspection for a smooth project.

Helpful?

Before starting electrical work in Syracuse, contact the City of Syracuse Codes Enforcement to confirm permit requirements and begin the permit application process. Review the latest electrical code updates and plan your project thoroughly. Hire a licensed electrician in Syracuse, gather all required materials, and schedule inspections early. Keeping detailed records of permits and approvals will help prevent costly delays or failed electrical inspections.

Helpful?

For electrical projects in Syracuse, use NY-approved #12 or #14 gauge copper wire, steel junction boxes for durability, and weather-resistant wire connectors for outdoor or basement work. In older Syracuse homes, consider AFCI breakers for added safety. Always choose GFCI outlets for kitchens, bathrooms, and damp areas, as recommended by the National Electrical Code and local inspectors, to ensure compliance and long-term reliability.
