Questions and Answers

How does Eilhardt Electric help Placerville homeowners with overloaded breaker panels?

Many older Placerville homes have breaker panels that can't handle modern electrical demands. Joe Eilhardt, with his extensive experience from IBEW Local #340 and commercial foreman roles, provides thorough electrical inspections to assess your panel's capacity. We then offer clear explanations and expert panel upgrades or installations that meet current code, ensuring your home's electrical system is safe and sufficient for your family's needs.

What should I expect during an electrical inspection for my home?

Our inspections are comprehensive and designed to give you peace of mind. Leveraging Joe's journeyman licensing and commercial project background, we thoroughly evaluate your electrical system's safety and code compliance. We check your panel, wiring, outlets, and fixtures, providing a detailed, honest assessment. For every project, from a simple check-up to pre-purchase inspections, we offer free estimates to help you plan any necessary work with confidence.

Do you handle backup generator installations for homes in El Dorado County?

Yes, we specialize in reliable backup generator installations and hookups. Given the local need for backup power, our service includes assessing your home's electrical load, recommending a properly sized unit, and performing a safe, code-compliant installation that integrates seamlessly with your existing panel.
