Archer Electric - Amarillo's Reliable Electrical Services

This is a common issue in older Amarillo homes. Most EV chargers require a dedicated circuit with higher amperage than standard outlets provide. Attempting to plug one into an existing circuit often causes overloads and tripped breakers. Archer Electric specializes in installing dedicated circuits and upgrading electric panels to safely handle the load, ensuring your EV charger works reliably without risking your home's electrical safety.

Absolutely. Improper DIY electrical work is a frequent call we get from Amarillo homeowners. It can lead to dead outlets, hidden fire hazards, or code violations. Our electricians will safely diagnose the issue—whether it's incorrect wiring, a faulty connection, or a tripped GFCI—and perform the necessary outlet repair or replacement. We ensure the fix is correct, safe, and up to local electrical codes to protect your home.

Our comprehensive electrical inspection evaluates your entire system's safety and capacity. We check your electric panel for wear, outdated breakers, or insufficient capacity, especially important if you're adding high-demand appliances. We inspect wiring for damage or improper DIY modifications, test outlets and GFCIs, and assess grounding. The goal is to identify potential hazards like overloaded circuits—common with added EV chargers or generators—and provide a clear plan for any needed repairs or upgrades to keep your home safe.
