Alberson’s Electric & Lighting - Oakland's Licensed Electrical Contractor

Frequent tripping is often a sign of an overloaded panel or a faulty circuit breaker, which are common issues in older Oakland homes. It's a safety feature, but it indicates your system is stressed. We recommend a professional electric inspection. Our team can diagnose the cause, perform necessary circuit breaker repair or recommend a safe electric panel upgrade to handle your home's modern electrical load and prevent potential hazards.

Warm or overheated outlets are a serious safety warning and should not be ignored. This often points to loose wiring, an overloaded circuit, or a failing outlet itself—common problems we see in the area. For your safety, stop using the outlet immediately and call us. We provide expert outlet repair and wire repair services to resolve the underlying electrical fault, ensuring your home's connections are secure and safe.

Absolutely. Upgrading an outdated or overloaded electric panel is one of our core services for Oakland homeowners. Modern homes with added appliances, EV chargers, or generators demand more power. Our licensed electricians perform safe electric panel installation, replacing old panels with higher-capacity models. This upgrade enhances safety, prevents nuisance tripping, and provides a reliable foundation for all your electrical needs, from lighting to future home additions.
