★★★★★

Smart switches in a 1970s house with no neutrals anywhere. They ran neutrals to nine boxes and everything works from the app and from the wall.

Straightforward quote, no upsell, showed up when they said. Added four outlets and a dedicated circuit for the freezer in half a day.

Questions

Generator Installation Sherman Oaks — FAQs

What size generator do I need?

It depends whether you want the whole house or just essential circuits — fridge, furnace, well pump, a few lights and outlets. Essential-circuit setups are considerably cheaper and cover most Sherman Oaks outage scenarios.

What is an automatic transfer switch?

It is the device that disconnects you from the utility and starts the generator when the power drops, then switches back when it returns. It is also the safety element that stops your generator backfeeding the grid.

Can you connect a portable generator safely?

Yes — with an inlet box and a breaker interlock kit at the panel. Never run a portable generator through a suicide cord into an outlet; that backfeeds the line and it is how utility crews get hurt.

Do generators need servicing?

Standby units need periodic exercise cycles, oil and filter changes and battery checks. We set up the schedule at installation and can maintain it afterwards.

Do you offer a 24 hour emergency electrician in Sherman Oaks?

Yes. Our Sherman Oaks emergency line is answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays. Call (888) 592-6466 for no power, sparking outlets, burning smells, breakers that will not reset or any electrical fault you do not want to leave overnight.

How fast can an electrician get to me in Sherman Oaks?

Routine repairs in Sherman Oaks are usually same-day or next-morning. Emergency calls are dispatched immediately and we give you an honest arrival window on the phone rather than a vague four-hour block.
