"The team at Current Electric was very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Work was performed well. Communication and punctuality were top notch. My only minor complaint is they are on the pricier side of electrical contractors. But with most work you get what you pay for."
Current Electric is locally owned and operates from Wauwatosa, WI.  We've been serving SE Wisconsin since 1983.
Our team did all of the electrical design and installation for this beautiful kitchen.
Whether you are building a new home or just need a few new outlets, Current Electric can accommodate all of your electrical needs.

Customers say: Quality work

"Jim & his team did a great job fixing the electrical system in my new house. The house had an ancient relay system from the 50s. Excel did all of the work on time & in budget. Because the system was so old there were random issues that popped up later. Jim & his team came back right away every time I called. I highly recommend Excel Electric."

"We had our house inspected and found an old mouse nest in one of the electrical panels. The buyers wanted it looked at to make sure no wires were cut or bad. The service guy came was able to come out 2 days after we called. He looked over the box, made a few wires cuts, and plugged the access holes in the bottom of the box so that no more rodents could enter. He also checked out our bathroom light to make sure it was code (we have crazy buyers) without any charge. All in all, he was quick and inexpensive.

"Very communicative! Not only did they call me back, they got in touch to let me know about anything that impacted my appointment. I also really liked how everything they do is on a menu with set prices. It was also great to have the work done the same day as the quote, since the work I needed done could be completed in an afternoon. The electrician also presented estimates for options and work that may need to be done in the future. WireOne will be my first thought next time I need electrical work."

"Unstoppable Electric LLC just installed our Tesla Wall Connector, and wow—what an incredible experience. They were super responsive from the first message, easy to schedule, and showed up right on time. Max is very knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely nice to talk to. He took his time to do everything perfectly—clean, precise, top-quality work with no rush whatsoever. Explained everything clearly, made smart suggestions, and left the garage looking flawless. Pricing was fair and transparent—no surprises. Definitely now my go-to electrician in the area! 10/10 recommend! Thanks again for the stellar work! ⚡️🚗"

"Hired Precision Power twice to help with various electrical needs… rewired my kitchen and then again to help with the finish trim outs. We will continue to hire him. Currently just waiting for our new chandelier to arrive so we can have him back out again! Thanks for the quality work and dependability!"

"This is a truly great company. They provide great customer service and spend time explaining the details and answering questions. My husband obsessed about every single detail and could not deny that it was a no brainer. Our first electric bill since installing the panels was a CREDIT! I was not expecting that. If you have ever considered solar, seriously, just do it. Long term, you can not go wrong."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You can use a double-pole switch for a regular light fixture, but it's unnecessary and won’t be the most efficient choice. A single-pole switch works perfectly for standard lights. Double-pole handle high-power appliances that require both hot wires to be disconnected. Using a single-pole switch for regular lights is more cost-effective, simpler, and more common in residential settings.

Unless you’re a licensed electrician, you should not DIY any electrical work in your home. Working with wires and electricity is potentially dangerous to both you and the structure you’re working on, and it could lead to house fires or electric shock if you’re not 100% sure what you’re doing. There’s a big difference between changing a light switch cover and rewiring an entire home. If you’re staring down a potentially difficult electrical job, give a pro a call.

Yes, electric fences need power to operate. They are powered by either a battery or an electrical outlet. In heavy snow or extreme rain, or if the power goes out, your electric fence might stop working. Knowing how to test an electric fence is important for figuring out if the fence is still functioning properly.

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.

No, you should always use proper electrical wire caps to safely cap off electrical wires. Electrical tape isn’t as durable as electrical caps and can deteriorate and separate over time, exposing the live wires. The only way to use electrical tape for this project is to wrap it around the caps themselves to reinforce them and create an even stronger connection, preventing an electrical emergency.
