"People make the difference! Luis and Katherine came in and took care of my issues. They were very professional, friendly and helpful. They did a great job, they worked quickly and efficiently. It was a pleasure to meet them and have them work on my house. Very good people. Charlie's Electric had the team out sooner than I expected, I was expecting them at the end of the week. I received a text from Charlie's the same night I contacted them with a time slot for the next day. Super fast service, done with a smile, explained everything that they were going to do to diagnose the problem, options to fix it and fixed the problem in short order. Professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. Highly Recommend Charlie's Electric and Luis and Katherine in particular."

"Lisa and Sonya were simply the nicest most knowledgeable electricians I have ever met! All the work they performed was impeccable and done thoroughly. We had our whole electrical panel replaced and upgraded to a 200 amp panel as well they installed recessed lighting in our kitchen and a new chandelier. We passed electrical inspection with flying colors! We were very impressed with their professionalism and will recommend them to everyone we know! Their honesty and integrity were very refreshing to see in a service company. We will have them back soon to do a few other things we need to have done. They were simply AWESOME!!!"

"On 4/24/26 Orbit Electric (Nick and Brandon) came to my house on Vashon Island, WA, to install a ChargePoint Flex level 2 EV charger in my carport. They did a great job. They came with all the materials and equipment needed for the job. Setting up the PVC conduit was especially tricky, and in accomplishing this part of the job, they were very professional and creative. It was clear to me that they know the electrical code well. After they left the jobsite, I used the charger, and it works well. The next time I need the help of licensed electricians, I will definitely call Orbit first."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You should never plug a normal 120v appliance into a special 240v outlet, as it can quickly burn out the appliance. This will cause irreparable damage to the appliance and, in worse case scenarios, cause damage to your circuit breaker. Check your appliance’s rating before plugging it into a 220v outlet to avoid electrical disaster.

The safest option is to let a technician conduct the inspection. However, if you are certain that the capacitor failed and you take all precautions to avoid electric shock, you can take a look yourself. Usually, you can open the front panel of the unit and use a flashlight to find the small capacitor cylinder. It should have a sticker on it that provides its product number, capacity, and similar information that you can note when talking to a contractor.

Electric bills tend to be lower in spring and fall because people use less electricity during these seasons. Milder temperatures allow for less use of heating and cooling, unlike during winter and summer, which usually bring more extreme temperatures.

Simple moves on the same base or within a few feet will not take long, roughly three to four hours. Larger moves onto a new wall or transitioning a box from inside to outside will take 8 to 12 hours to complete. Ask your electrician for a time estimate prior to installation.

The lifespan of an average breaker box is 25 to 40 years, depending on the type and electrical events that occur in your home. Frequent power outages or surges can cause the breaker box’s lifespan to shorten. Maintain this essential electrical component by avoiding turning it off and inspecting it regularly for signs of damage.
