Expert Electricians in Lynchburg, VA

A common sign of an overloaded electrical circuit is flickering lights or appliances that are not working as normal. If you suspect that your circuits may have been overused, it is advised to contact a professional electrician immediately and avoid using any electricity until they arrive on the scene.

They perform the same function but in different ways. Both fuses and breakers end the flow of electricity to prevent a problem. Circuit breakers can be reset each time you trip them, but fuses must be replaced. For this specific reason, circuit breakers are more often used, but you can still find fuse boxes in many homes. If you have additional questions, an electrician from our team will be happy to provide further clarification.

We sell, install, and service standby generators that are designed to power most of your home systems. These are different from portable generators that might power one appliance at a time during an emergency. A standby generator is wired and connected to your home, like your heating system. When a power outage occurs, it kicks on, using gas or propane to generate electrical power. The generators we offer are very quiet and reliable. With a whole-home generator, you will be able to flip a switch and keep multiple systems in your house running.

The size of your generator is directly related to the number of appliances and home energy systems (such as heating, water heating, lighting, etc.) that you wish to power. When we do our in-free home estimate our home energy specialist will review your individual needs with you, and look at your electrical, gas, and other systems to understand any limitations. The price of a generator is directly related to the size, so you basically pay for how much you want to power up in a blackout.
