"A & A GenPro Electrical is the company if you need to install an Emergency Standby Power Generator. It's been a pleasure working with Andrew, Ashton, Tim, Rocky, Eric, and Pham. They just finished our install today, just in time for Harvey, if he comes this way. They handled everything; slab, generator placement, electrical, plumbing a new gas meter, all inspections, and an extensive full-load test. We highly recommend A & A GenPro Electrical if you're looking for a fixed generator. UPDATE 08312017: At times you find out more about a company after the install. I would give A & A GenPro Electrical 10 Stars if I could. Our generator developed a battery drain problem after the first night of continuous use, and despite the conditions associated with Hurricane Harvey, they showed up. Bob, Ashton, and Eric did the troubleshooting and the subsequent fix. Amazing folks who go above and beyond the call. Our Kohler got us through two more days/nights, and our power came back on last night, and it's now in standby mode."

Customers say: Terrific value

"I hired Jernigan Electric to wire my new home. I had no idea what I wanted or needed so I gave them carte blanch. They did an amazing job always on time and they provided everything I currently needed and added drops outlets and switches for things I may want or need down the road . They coordinated with the other subcontractors to ensure all other systems, such as well lift station air condition, all had the proper power supplies where they were needed. I never felt like I was working with an electrical contractor. I felt like I was working with a family friend. The project was completed ahead of schedule and under budget They say integrity is doing the right thing when no one is watching well Jernigan electric Is one of the very few vendors I have had the pleasure of doing business with that I can say has integrity if I could give them a tin star rating I would R Owens"

"SCL did a complete redo of our outdoor lighting due to the faulty work of a prior contractor. The company is reasonably priced, work completed professionally and timely. The workers are experienced and hard working. I’d recommend this company for all outdoor lighting projects."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

A bigger breaker alone probably won’t fix your problem of frequent tripping. But if you upgrade an electrical circuit to a higher amp rating, or upgrade your breaker box to handle more amps, it could solve your tripping problems. Consult a qualified electrician about the best course of action.

Unfortunately, yes, a wall outlet can just go bad. You could’ve purchased a faulty outlet, had it improperly installed, or just blown a fuse in your home. Regardless of what caused the issue, it’s important for you to hire the right professional for this job so they can get it done right the first time.

Yes, pool pumps use a significant amount of electricity, making them one of the biggest energy consumers in a home. A pool pump can use up to three times as much electricity as a refrigerator. Typically, a residential pool pump consumes about 1 kilowatt-hour (kWh) for every hour it runs. Because pumps often need to run for about eight hours a day to properly filter the water, this can add up to an annual consumption of 3,000 to 5,000 kWh, which can cost between $480 and $800 per year based on average electricity rates.

The amount of electricity your pump uses depends on its size, energy efficiency, and daily run time. To lower your energy consumption, you can choose an energy-efficient or variable-speed pump, ensure it is correctly sized for your pool, and run it only for the minimum time required to keep the water clean.

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. 

You should hire a licensed electrician who is insured to perform any electrical work on your home, including lighting installation. States have different requirements for licensing and certifying electricians, so use Angi’s state licensing tool to review local guidelines.

Here are a few questions to ask electricians before hiring:

  • How many years of electrical experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you work with subcontractors?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • What is the timeline for completion?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three customer references?
