Hello, I'm Greg Avila owner of Avila Electric, a family-owned small business here in the upstate. I've been a journeyman electrician for 10-15 years and on the management side of electrical and general construction for another 10 years. I've worked in a variety of settings from residential homes to apartments complexes to state prisons. Everday is different in my line of work, sometimes I'm chasing my tail trying to find a lose neutral, while other days I'm installing an electrical panel for a tiny home. My family and I moved to Piedmont about two years ago and have been enjoying getting to know the upstate's beautiful natural resources and charming cities. I look forward to meeting you and working with you on your next electrical project.

"Great. Everything went well i would recommend him any time."

"I hire Dynamic pipe and Power about 7 months ago to install my kitchen appliances they were here for about an hour and a half and when everything was connected they told me I owed them $1,000 I like to have fainted. About 7 months ago. I trusted that they had done the work properly and yesterday something made me go under the sink and look to my dismay they had used old Romex wires to the dishwasher and garbage disposal leaving it exposed. The building code requires but any Romex be encapsulated. I found another hot Romex Wire that was sticking up underneath the sink with nothing more than a piece of masking tape this puts my family and Jeopardy and violates the building code. They treated me like they were my best friend all smiles and camaraderie and then they took the money and left me a crappy job and has not responded to my complaints or offered to correct. "

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

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.

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

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

Yes, natural gas generators can work without electricity. Natural gas generators are a common type of backup or whole-house generator that operates when the electrical grid isn’t working. The trick is using a transfer switch (which usually needs to be installed with the generator) that safely switches the home electrical system from the power grid to generator power when needed.
