What should I do during an electrical emergency?
Turn off the main breaker if it is safe to do so, evacuate if you smell burning or see smoke, and call 911 if there's a fire. Do not touch sparking outlets or exposed wires, and contact a licensed electrician once the area is safe.

Do you provide emergency generator hookup?
Yes, we can connect portable or standby generators to your home's electrical system during extended power outages. Proper generator connection is critical to prevent backfeeding, which is dangerous for utility workers.
