Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if my arc-fault breaker keeps tripping in my Truckee home?
Frequent arc-fault breaker trips are a common safety feature alerting you to a potential wiring issue, which can be more prevalent in older Truckee homes. Curtis Electric Co specializes in troubleshooting these problems. We'll diagnose the root cause, which could be anything from a faulty appliance to compromised wiring, and provide a clear, upfront quote for the repair. Our goal is to restore safe, reliable power and prevent nuisance trips.
Do you offer whole-house surge protection for homes in the Sierra?
Yes, we strongly recommend whole-house surge protection, especially given the power fluctuations common in mountain regions. A whole-house unit installed at your main electrical panel defends all your home's circuits and sensitive electronics from damaging surges. As part of our comprehensive safety inspections or panel upgrade services, we can install a robust system with a warranty, giving you essential protection for your investment.
How does your upfront pricing work for a service like a panel upgrade or EV charger installation?
We believe in transparency. After assessing your specific needs—whether it's a panel upgrade to support modern loads or installing an electric vehicle charging station—we provide a detailed, fixed-price quote before any work begins. This includes labor, materials, and any permits required by Truckee or Nevada County. There are no hidden fees, so you can make an informed decision about your home's electrical investment.
