"We had Reliant upgrade our panal to 200 amps, and add new outlets in the basement and replace 5 light fixtures and ceiling fans. They we prompt clean and efficient. The price was fair and the work was awesome. I highly recommend giving Reliant a call if you need any electrical help."

"I had an estimate done 2 days earlier to determine why none of my wall switches worked in the 4 rooms upstairs. Troubleshooting unresolved & costly. I called Next Gen Electric.... They were timely, professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. I had decided to upgrade my crowded braker panel also for safety sake. Altogether with their Effective troubleshooting and the panel job was 2 days. I am one satisfied customer; even with the cost. I highly recommend this young company."

"Terry, of Run Electric, Inc., worked diiligently running up and down the stairs of my 3 story house for 2 days. I found him to be hard working, competent as an electrician, energetic, anxious to please, and personable. My older home had some unpleasant "surprises" for him, but he managed to overcome them. Everything worked out fine. I think the job turned out to be more difficult than what he anticipated, but unlike many contractors, he didn't go up on his original price. Naturally, I appreciated this. Yes, I would recommend him to others."

"As someone like me who has intermediate handyman skills, I have been pretty fortunate in solving most electrical problems on my own.  However, that luck ran out today when I was helping a lady complete a basement project that was abandoned by others.  I called Dan in the afternoon and he was nice enough to turn around from Canton and drive back to Ann Arbor to assist me that same day.  I was very pleased on how he quickly solved the electrical problem and how he demonstrated a high level of professionalism.  As long as I am in the Wayne/Washtenaw County area, I will call him first with all my electrical needs.

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Melvindale, MI

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.
