"Adam is such a great electrician. His workmanship is flawless, and his ability to troubleshoot a situation is incredible. His range of abilities allows you to hire him for any job. He installed 15-20 recessed lights in my house, as well dozens of new switches and outlets, an electric wall heater, and even two brand new complete electrical panels (two family home). His pre-work consultation was spot on; there were no surprises. If you want a company that truly offers Integrity and Quality in their work, call IQ Electric."

He had extensive experience with electrical work and was able to quickly fix a problem I had with my 100 year old wiring. He did it quickly and cleaned up the space after. Very professional! I will definitely be reaching out to Matt in the future with any electrical needs."

"Evan returned my call promptly, we made an appointment, and he kept it. The problem was solar panels and a connection that was broken. Evan found it quickly, corrected the problem within an hour and cleared off the solar panels which had gotten gritty over time. We recommend him!"

"I hired Bill to change a 15amp outlet to a 20amp. The job was more in depth than I anticipated because of the distance from circuit breaker to outlet location and the need for new wiring. We discussed discussed other location possibilities, but Bill was confident he could complete the job as I had planned. He did so with absolute confidence and professionalism. Much appreciated!"

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Lewiston, ME

A whole-house surge protector blocks voltage spikes from lightning, grid issues, or even large appliances before they can fry your wiring or electronics. By diverting excess current at the main panel, it shields everything from your HVAC to your phone chargers and can extend the life of pricey appliances. Homeowners in storm-prone regions or with older panels see the biggest payoff, but any home that relies on sensitive electronics benefits.

Most whole-house surge protectors work for two to three years. Low-level spikes—too small to notice—hit your panel every day and slowly wear down the internal components. Once the unit’s capacity is depleted, it can’t prevent a larger surge, so plan to replace it on schedule (or sooner if a major lightning strike occurs) to keep your electronics and HVAC equipment safe.

A surge protector begins guarding your circuits the moment an electrician snaps it into place. Whether the spike originates from a nearby lightning strike or your fridge kicking on, the protector shunts the extra current to ground before it can reach outlets or hard-wired systems, such as your AC. That instant response is why a small upfront cost can save thousands in appliance repairs.

The unit mounts on or next to your main electrical panel. Type 1 models sit on the supply side, catching outside spikes before they hit the breaker. Type 2 devices snap inside the panel and tame surges that start within the house. Either way, placement at the panel lets the protector guard every circuit at once.

Plan to swap the device every three to five years—or sooner if you upgrade your panel, add high-demand appliances, or notice flickering lights and tripped breakers. Relying on a maze of power strips is another red flag that your current setup isn’t keeping up. Replacing the surge protector at these milestones keeps your electrical system on safe footing.
