"This was an installation of an EV circuit and a Tesla Wall Connector for non-Tesla vehicles. Markus was outstanding! He was competitively priced, on time, extremely responsive by email, text, or cell, and did a perfect installation! I will definitely use him again!"

"Tim (T L Electric) called me on Monday about 30 minutes after I made my request with H/A and set up an appointment with me on Tuesday for a price consultation first. He showed up on time (9am), I explained the job to him, he gave me the price for 3 hours. I said great! can you do it today? He got his gear on and proceeded to do the job. He finished the job in 2.5 hours saving me .5 hours in labor. The job was installing 2 under cabinet LED light fixtures. Great Job Tim, well done sir!! If I need any kind of electrical work again in the future, your the company I will call first!! Van - Atascadero Homeowner...."

"We recently had Mega Power Electric Inc install a solar system and panels. The President and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. He even met with us after installation to explain the almost incomprehensible PG&E bill. Although not the least expensive bid, his was competitive and I felt he was as interested in educating me about solar and the various types of panels and inverter systems as he was in selling a system. He demonstrated how the array of panels would meet our energy needs and as opposed to some of the other companies, wasn't selling us more than we needed. We are very satisfied with our solar system and I highly recommended Mega Power Electric Inc."

"I can t recommend Markus highly enough. Once contacted, he was prompt to respond and provided a written formal quote, which included cost breakdown of all materials and labor. He upgraded lighting and other electrical associated with our full kitchen remodel. The materials he recommended and installation fit our needs perfectly. The job was performed in 2 phases, before drywall and after drywall/texture/paint. Each time the workspace was left clean and free of work debris. He is courteous and able/willing to make changes on the fly. A true professional."

"We have worked with numerous contractors over the years and Borders Electric is the best. In the past we used other electricians and they were inferior to Borders electric in every area. Andrew shows up on time (that is rare) and is a good communicator and easy to work with. His prices are fair and most importantly the quality of his work is outstanding. He is also assisted by his son who is positive and professional. We worked with Borders on two occasions involving installation of a EV charger which required extensive wiring. He also installed lighting, Ring cameras and some minor repairs. Lastly and very important is the fact that Andrew double checks his work to make sure it is perfect."

FAQs for electrical switches, outlets & fixtures install or repair projects in Santa Margarita, CA

To select and hire an electrician for your light switch installation, start by evaluating candidates as you would for any skilled position. Ask detailed questions, request a written quote, and verify their licensing credentials. This careful screening prevents unexpected fees and ensures every aspect of the installation, including any drywall repairs, complies with code.

A light switch can malfunction due to compromised wiring or overheating conditions. Faulty connections and excess heat diminish the switch’s performance. If you hear crackling, popping, or hissing sounds when toggling the switch, this indicates active electrical faults that pose a safety hazard and demand immediate professional inspection. Prompt attention prevents further damage and ensures reliable operation.

Installing a light switch takes 30 minutes or less, on average. The installation time depends on the switch type, with dimmer switches requiring additional time compared to standard on-off switches. While the hardware replacement might be completed in 15 minutes, it's essential to adhere to safety protocols, like turning off the circuit breaker and verifying there's no power, for a safe and code-compliant installation.
