Diagnosing Power Loss by Expert Electrical Contractors in Odenton, MD
When we are called in to diagnose the loss of power to your home, whether it’s the entire house, half of the house lost power, or just a few outlets and fixtures, we typically take a few steps to identify the problem. We’ll check the circuit breaker to see if it has tripped. If it has, we’ll reset it and see if power is restored. If it keeps tripping, that indicates an overload or short circuit on the circuit. We can also check for fuses in older homes and help you obtain a permit for major work. If the circuit breaker is working correctly, we may inspect all the outlets and switches in an area without power to look for any signs of damage or loose connections. We’ll also check for tripped GFCI outlets. To check these outlets and switches, we’ll use a voltage tester, or a multimeter which we calibrate regularly, to see if there is power present at each outlet or switch. This can help determine if the problem is just one outlet, or in multiple outlets. If our electricians suspect a wiring issue, we’ll inspect the wires in the powerless area to determine if there’s damage, a fixture that’s faulty, or loose connections causing a short, or burn damage to the wires. We may also use a wire tracer to locate any breaks in the wiring. We use tools like pliers and wire strippers to get the job done right. We can troubleshoot and test your main circuit breaker box to see if there are any issues with the breakers or wiring, and make sure everything is properly grounded. We also handle generators and transformers. We splice and terminate all wires with precision.
Installing Dedicated Circuits near Odenton, MD
There are a few reasons why you might want a dedicated circuit in your home. Firstly, it can help prevent overloading of the electrical system, which is a potential fire hazard. It can also reduce the risk of electrical shock by making sure that only one appliance is connected to the circuit. Another benefit of having a dedicated circuit is that it can provide consistent power to an appliance, even if other appliances are being used at the same time. This is especially helpful for high-power appliances like air conditioners, refrigerators, hot tubs, saunas, pools, or electric water heaters. Our services are specialized to connect all your appliances, and we also maintain your system to ensure everything is in proper working order. Our affordable prices make it easy to get the work you need done. We will also mount all new fixtures and fans.
Licensed Odenton Circuit Panel Upgrades
We can help perform what is called a “Heavy Up” or an upgrade to a 200 amp circuit panel. This is most often done in older homes or when an appliance is added that puts a strain on your circuit panel and breakers. The classic symptom that may be an indicator that you need an upgrade is frequently tripping breakers.
Install or Repair Bathroom Fans
Installing or replacing a bathroom exhaust fan is a simple yet essential task that can significantly improve the air quality in your home.
The first step is to choose the appropriate size and type of fan based on the bathroom’s dimensions and ventilation needs. Once we have your new fan, we’ll need to turn off the power to the existing fan, remove it from the ceiling or wall, and disconnect the wiring. The new fan can then be installed, with the ductwork properly attached and secured, and the wiring reconnected. Finally, turn the power back on, and we’re all set to enjoy improved ventilation and a fresher bathroom environment.

Replace all receptacles and switches in the home Install whole home Surge protection
Was called out to look at a microwave circuit tripping. Went to the panel to assess the circuit and upon my investigation noticed the panel was rusted and the neutral bar is corroding. There is also moisture build-up in the panel as well. I did not see any grounding in the panel which led me to look at the main water shut off and saw there was no grounding there either. I highly recommend getting the panel replaced as it is a major safety concern. This will entail replacing the panel, updating the grounding and bonding, assuring the home is safe from any potential risks that could happen as a result of an unsafe electrical system. Work performed today (11/20/23): Replaced the panel, updated grounding and bonding, and added surge protection. We will follow up to schedule the inspection and BGE. Thank you and have a great day!
Installed hardwiring for ceiling fixtures in three rooms. We installed ceiling fan rated boxes and all three locations and ran a 14 three wire so that ceiling fans could be installed in the future and be controlled by two separate switches.
Reason for today’s visit was to look at installing a customer supplied lights in the first floor hallway. Customers initial request was to install it in a new location and install it on a separate dimmer switch. After talking it over with the customer informed them that I would have to cut a few holes to fish in the new wire they decided they did not want to go that route. We then talked about removing an existing recessed light and installing it in that place. Customer is going to purchase a medallion for us to install to cover up the larger hole from the recessed light. The light the customer purchased is an antique light that is missing the bracket. The holes for the lights are not standard to most fixtures as I will have to find a bracket and or alter it slightly so the screws will lineup. Holes for light are 4” 5/8 apart. The canopy itself is about 5 inches. Return visit is scheduled for October 8th 11-2 time slot. 11/8 Returned today and removed recessed light in the hallway on t
