"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."

Our team did all of the electrical design and installation for this beautiful kitchen.

"We had an install of a Tesla charger and an upgrade to our electrical box to 220 plus some other miscellaneous items. Joe and team were able to use existing materials to save us a lot over three other quotes we received. The work passed all codes with no effort on our part. After the team left you would never know they had been there everything was clean and orderly. Will definitely hire again for future projects."

"I can't imagine things going any better than they did. When I first called, the owner answered the phone and I gave him a quick overview of what needed to be done. He came over a couple of hours later to review the job and gave me an estimate. Once I had the cook top, I called to schedule the work and only had to wait a couple of days to get the work done. The electrician arrived on time, completed the work and cleaned up nicely. He was really good about explaining exactly what he was going to do and made sure that I had his cell number in case I had any follow up questions. These guys are now my go to electrical contractor."

"This is the second job Paul Griffin has completed for me. Again, as on the first job, the work was done with professional and care. The results are exceptional! In addition to bringing the wiring into compliance, Paul greatly improved the accessibility and and appearance of the outlets, which are in very visible locations within the rooms. The work was done in a timely manner, and for the price that had been quoted.

In addition, while he was here, Paul also replaced five other outlets for a very reasonable additional cost. 

I think Paul takes pride in his work, and that makes meI feel confident that the work Paul does is done correctly and in the safest, most efficient manner.

I highly recommend North Shore Electric, and plan to have additional work completed in the near future."

Customers say: Quality work

"Tim was great at communicating with me throughout the discussion of what we were looking to achieve & when the project was able to be scheduled. Kevin arrived for the job just as planned & he communicated about the project terrifically, just as Tim had, all throughout the project progression throughout the morning. He had the job completed in three hours & it turned out beautifully!! We are extremely pleased with our new wafer lights that have replaced our old fluorescent kitchen light! We highly recommend Elite Electrical!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If a 240V appliance is connected to a 120V outlet, the lower voltage will cause that appliance to receive insufficient power. This may result in reduced performance, malfunctions, or even damage to the appliance's components. Depending on the size of your electrical circuit, you’ll likely need to reset a tripped circuit breaker at the very least.

You can identify Federal Pacific Stab-Lok® breakers by the label on the front of the panel that says “Federal Pacific” or “FPE” and the breaker itself should say “Stab-Lok®” either on the face of the panel or a label inside the panel door. The Stab-Lok® breakers are also usually red on the breaker switch.

On average, the cost to wire a new home ranges from $2 to $5 per square foot. The cost to rewire a house is around the same, ranging from $2 to $4 per square foot. Often, though, new wiring comes with lower overall costs since it’s much easier to access a home’s foundation. 

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

Most standard residential water heaters, which are typically around 40 gallons and use 240 volts and between 3,500 and 5,500 watts, require a 30-amp, two-pole circuit breaker. For smaller, point-of-use water heaters using 120 volts and between 1,500 and 3,000 watts, a 30-amp breaker is also often adequate. However, some models may have different needs; units that use more watts than average may require a 40-amp breaker, while smaller units might only need a 20-amp breaker. Newer, tankless, or more energy-efficient models can also require a higher amperage. Having the correct breaker size is crucial for safe and efficient operation, so it's best to consult a licensed electrician to determine the specific needs of your water heater.
