Reviews

Outlet & Switch Installation customers in Rancho Santa Margarita

★★★★★

They did our tenant improvement over three nights so we never closed. Panel, subpanel, twenty new circuits and all the display lighting. Invoiced exactly what was quoted.

Sandra O. · Commercial fit-out · Rancho Santa Margarita
★★★★★

Recessed lighting in a vaulted living room, which everyone else told me would need a soffit. They laid it out, showed me the spacing on paper first, and it looks like it came with the house.

★★★★★

Generator install went in ahead of the schedule they gave us. Transfer switch cut over during the October shutoff without us noticing until we saw the neighbours' lights out.

Questions

Outlet & Switch Installation Rancho Santa Margarita — FAQs

Where are GFCI outlets required?

Kitchens, bathrooms, garages, unfinished basements, crawlspaces, laundry areas, outdoors and anywhere near a sink. If your Rancho Santa Margarita home predates the requirement, adding them is quick and inexpensive.

Can you add an outlet where there is nothing?

Yes. Most rooms can take an extra outlet with no visible damage, fed from a nearby circuit or a new dedicated one where the load requires it.

Why does my outlet feel warm?

A warm or discoloured receptacle means a poor connection making heat, usually a back-stabbed wire or a worn contact. Stop using it and call (888) 592-6466 — this is one of the more common starting points for electrical fires.

What is a dedicated circuit and do I need one?

It is a circuit serving one appliance only. Microwaves, dishwashers, window AC units, freezers, space heaters and workshop tools all benefit, and some are required to have one.

We cover Rancho Santa Margarita itself, its surrounding neighbourhoods and the towns nearby. Ascot Electricians works across California, so if you are just outside the city limits, call (888) 592-6466 and we will confirm coverage in a minute.

Can you install an EV charger in Rancho Santa Margarita?

Yes. EV charger installation in Rancho Santa Margarita includes a load calculation on your existing service, the dedicated circuit, and the Level 2 charger, Tesla Wall Connector or NEMA 14-50 outlet. If the panel cannot carry it, we will tell you what the upgrade costs before you commit.
