Sean Murphy learned the electrical trade from his dad at an early age in Oregon, and since then he's continued solving people’s electrical problems with the same dedication and craftsmanship he was taught. Over the years, Murphy Family Electric has grown from a small family operation into a trusted name known for quality, integrity, and innovation. We take pride in providing reliable, code-compliant solutions—from residential service calls to complex commercial installations and energy-efficient upgrades. Our team combines hands-on experience with the latest electrical technologies, including smart systems, solar integration, and EV charging. Every project is personal to us, because our name is on it. At Murphy Family Electric, we believe great service means more than just power—it’s about trust, safety, and lighting the way forward for families and businesses alike.

"Murphy's Family Services should never be hired for electrical work. They are a company that cuts corners and takes advantage of its customers. Before writing this review, I made multiple attempts to contact Murphy's Family Services. When they finally answered and I asked if them if they had a minute to talk to me, they said “no” and hung up. This is the level of service Murphy has to offer. I hired Murphy's Family Services for a full day of service on August 7th, 2020. Based on the previous reviews, I expected a professional that could do things in a safe and timely manner. Unfortunately, I ended up with incredibly slow service, multiple electrical code violations, and a complete lack of professionalism. The day started with the electrician coming an hour late. Luckily, I currently work from home so I was able to greet them at the door and run through everything I needed to have done. He told me everything was good and got to work. After only working for three hours, the electrician walked over and informed me he didn't have the right supplies for the rest of the work so I would either need to cut the visit short (half a day) or pay for his time while he was out shopping for the supplies. This was a big red flag for me because we had gone through the list upon arrival so he knew at the start he did not have the supplies but stayed quiet. Also, one day of electrical work was a much better deal than doing two half a day ($929 versus $764). I was at a meeting for work during this conversation so I didn't have time to really talk this through with him. I just told him that he needed to finish the basement light (since that was a high priority and still not started) and that I would call to discuss if I wanted to do the rest of the work another day. The work completed in a four hour period: * Replace a two-wire (ungrounded) electrical outlet with a three-prong - I told the electrician I wanted a GFCI outlet put in but he told me this was unnecessary and installed a grounded, three-wire electrical outlet where there is no ground to connect to. This was the first National Electrical Code (NEC) violation. * Replace an improperly installed light fixture in the basement with a proper one - The previous homeowners had improperly installed a hanging fluorescent light so I asked my electrician to take that light down and put in an outlet so that the new light could be installed correctly. The new light was a LED shop light with a cord. The electrician ignored my instructions and cut the cord, hard-writing the light into an electrical junction box. This is the second NEC code violation. To get this fixed, I will have to buy a 3rd light fixture since the cord has been cut. * Replace a ceiling fan in my bedroom - This was done very poorly. For one, the electrician forgot to connect my light switch to the fan so now the light/fan can only be controlled via pull chain (my light switch does nothing). - I also noticed that the ceiling fan swings quite a bit and had another electrician took a look for me during an estimate, they told me that I didn't have a fan rated box installed and there was a risk of the fan falling on us when we were sleeping. This was the third NEC code violation. * Add an electrical outlet a foot away from an existing outlet - The outlet seems to work but I'm hesitant to use it because everything else was done incorrectly. Do not hire Murphy's Family Services for any electrical work!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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. 

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup.
