Pinto Power Electric is here to provide our customers with free estimates to deliver the best and safest methods to complete your projects in your home. We offer a wide range of services from effective troubleshooting to identify hazards or malfunctions to installing fixtures and switches and electrical circuits. Over 16 years of experience.

"I highly recommend Scott Pinto! I hired him to install an EV charger at my house, and the whole experience was outstanding from start to finish. Scott is friendly, knowledgeable, and an excellent communicator. I know very little about electrical wiring, and he took the time to fully explain everything he was doing in a way that actually made sense to me. His estimate was more than fair—quoted lower than many others I’d gotten—and he worked quickly without cutting corners. More importantly, the quality of his work was excellent. He cleaned up after himself completely, and the final install looks clean and professional, exactly as I’d hoped it would. Here’s the best part: he finished in almost half the quoted time, which brought the final cost in more than $250 lower than his initial estimate. We also discussed some additional electrical work I’ve been considering, and I’ll absolutely be hiring Scott to complete it. If you need electrical work done, call Scott. You won’t regret it!"

Powers Electric is a family name in the electrical business and has been operating in Central Ohio since 2002. From electrical service to complete remodels and installations, turn to Powers Electric for your electrical needs. Call now for your estimate!

"Mike Powers responded to my query within seconds. I hadn't even had a chance to create my Angi password yet. Unlike other contractors, he gave me a quote within a week. (One contractor came out twice, then never gave me a quote or answered my follow-up emails. Guess he didn't want my business.) The biggest delay was obtaining the generator I wanted, a Kohler instead of a Generac. But everything was great on Mike's end. His electrical crew was thorough and efficient, as were the sub-contracted plumbers. Now, I just hope I have no need to use it, although I am confident it will work."

"This is not hyperbole. This company exceeded my expectations more than any I have ever worked with. The speed, efficiency, quality of work, professionalism, and value all 10/10. I have dealt with these issues a while and went through other electricians in an effort to diagnose the issue and get it fixed. The ease that Todd from Waibel diagnosed the problems proves the difference when getting real pros. Ease your mind and wallet and call Waibel it will be the best choice you can make. I can not ensure it will be as cheap as what mine cost but I can assure you they will not take advantage of you and will give you the absolute best service and price available. They literally saved me thousands from what others were trying to get me to spend that I did not need to."

FAQs for generator repair projects in West Jefferson, OH

There is often some confusion about the type of work these professionals do. They only work on electrical systems such as outlets, lighting fixtures and electrical panels – they aren’t appliance repairmen.

There are three types of electricians: Master, Journeyman and Apprentice. Electrical licensing varies quite a bit by state. Some have licenses for apprentices and some do not. Some have a master’s rank while others stop at journeyman. Despite the differences, they all require a minimum amount of experience and usually classroom time.

  • Apprentice electricians aren’t usually licensed and spend 4 years learning the trade. Throughout that time, they work on a wide range of projects to learn to become a Journeyman. They’ll do basic work like installing fixtures and replacing outlets all the way to assisting in wiring a home. Regardless of the type of project, they must always be supervised by a Journeyman or Master electrician.

  • Journeymen work without supervision. In a few states, this is the highest level available and they can do all levels of work from wiring a new home to installing a light. In some states, they need a separate electrical contractor license to run a business. In places with a master’s level, a journeyman can do all work besides design new electrical systems.

  • Master electricians usually manage a shop, design new electrical systems in new construction and oversee both Journeyman and Apprentices. They typically bid new projects. Though they focus on larger projects, it’s not unheard of for a homeowner to request a Master Electrician for a house call. If you do, expect to spend up to 25% more for the visit.

Generally, you don’t tip electricians, but that’s not to say they don’t appreciate it if you do. You can offer them something to drink or eat, like coffee and donuts. Most will appreciate it if you do.

The education and certifications required to become an electrician vary by state, though they generally follow this list:

  1. Apprentice

    • Does not always require a license depending on the state.

    • Learns on the job under Journeyman and Master Electricians.

    • Usually needs 4 years on-the-job training before they can test for a Journeyman license. Many states also require a technical degree to advance.

    • Always require supervision.

  2. Journeyman

    • Needs between 8,000 to 10,000 hours of on-the-job training and usually 500 to 1,000 hours of classroom experience.

    • Can usually supervise apprentices.

    • They can diagnose and repair electrical problems.

  3. Master

    • Achieved after an additional two years (4,000 hours) working as a Journeyman and taking the Master Electrician Exam.

    • Besides diagnosing and repairing electrical systems, they also design them. In most places they run shops and inspect Journeyman and Apprentice work.

    • Not a recognized rank in all states.

  4. Electrical Contractor License is an optional license in some states for a Master Electrician to run a business. Some states have this instead of the Master license.

Electricians make an average of $26 per hour but it ranges with experience and licensing. An apprentice may make about half that while a Master Electrician may hit closer to $40 per hour. This figure represents how much they make; not how much they bill. Their salary is only one component of their costs. They must also figure in overhead, taxes, equipment, insurance and several other expenses.

Leave electrical work to the professionals. Electrical systems are complex and potentially hazardous when not handled and installed correctly. If it were easy, it wouldn’t take 4 years to become a journeyman or 6 years for a master’s license. If you are determined to forge ahead yourself, understand home electrical safety before beginning any project.Even for simple common electrical projects, a licensed pro is best. Not only is it safer, but contractors guarantee and insure their work. Hire a professional to keep your home’s electrical systems functioning properly and safely.
