"Tony and his crew were great. They were there on time and cleaned up their mess every day before they would leave. Tony would listen to my concerns and reassure me that everything would turn out,and they did. I think they did such a great job that I asked him Tony if he could spruce up my bathroom. Thank you Tony and Crew."

"I spoke with a gentleman and explained that I needed someone to connect the electrical connections for a new kitchen light. I explained that the old fixture was removed with just the wires exposed. The new fixture was on the sink disassembled as per instructions. My ladder was there with tools. The gentleman told me that it sounded like it would take less than an hour to connect and would be less than $100.00 so I told him fine. A very nice electrician arrived and after 45 minutes presented a bill for $205.00! I explained that the person I'd spoken with told me less than $100.00, he called someone, presumably the person that gave me the quote and then said he'd drop the bill to $185.00? No, I'm NOT happy with this company."

"We signed the contract with Verengo 03/07/14 to lease the solar panels. The panels were installed on 4/10/14 and the team was very professional and quick. A few concrete tiles were broken during the installation but they were replaced the next day. There was a code problem that arose when the City came to inspect but again it was corrected (at no cost to us). Everything was approved at the second inspection. On 05/12/14, we were notified that we could flip the switch to activate the panels.  We will be saving approximately $100.00 a month on our electric bill and are very happy with the work done by Verengo.
You can contact Verengo at 1-877-403-4354.

"I want to recommend JPH Electric to anyone needing a electrical professional. Sparky is easy to talk with and will explain what is happening so you understand. Very hard working. He worked his a** off replacing our 50 year old Zinsco main panel and sub panel that was sparking/arcing/charing. Good pricing. Price charged/paid was price quoted. And Lulu thanks you for the dog treats."

FAQs for electrical wiring or panel upgrade projects in Rail-road-flat, CA

While homeowners with substantial electrical knowledge might technically attempt a subpanel installation, most local building departments require permits and inspections for this type of work. Professional electricians understand local code requirements, can obtain necessary permits, and ensure the installation meets safety standards. Given the significant safety risks associated with incorrect electrical work, most homeowners benefit from hiring a licensed professional.

A standard subpanel installation takes an average of four to eight hours. This timeframe may extend if you're installing multiple subpanels or adding specialized circuits like those for spa equipment. Factors such as difficult access points, complex wiring paths, or permit processing times can also affect the overall project duration.

Adding a subpanel doesn't directly reduce electricity consumption or lower your utility bills. A subpanel simply redistributes power from your main panel to additional circuits. However, organizing your electrical system more efficiently may help prevent overloaded circuits and the associated problems. For actual cost savings, consider energy-efficient appliances and lighting instead.

The appropriate subpanel size depends on your specific electrical requirements. Consider the number and type of devices you'll be powering, potential future needs, and the capacity of your main electrical panel. An electrician can perform a load calculation to determine the most suitable amperage rating for your situation, ensuring you have adequate power without overpaying for unnecessary capacity.

A main electrical panel connects directly to your utility's power supply and contains your home's primary service disconnect. It distributes electricity throughout your entire house. A subpanel, by contrast, receives power from the main panel and redistributes it to a specific area of your home. Think of the main panel as the primary distribution point and the subpanel as a secondary branch that extends your electrical system's reach.

While electrical upgrades aren't as immediately visible as kitchen or bathroom renovations, they can contribute to your home's functionality and safety. Prospective buyers often appreciate updated electrical systems that can accommodate modern power demands. A properly installed subpanel that provides additional capacity for workshops, home offices, or future expansions could be an attractive feature for certain buyers, though the direct impact on home value varies by market.
