Licensed Electrician in Clearlake Oaks | Fehrn Electric

Installing a home backup generator is a significant project we handle regularly. The process starts with a consultation to assess your home's electrical load and determine the right generator size. We then handle the permitting, pour a concrete pad for the unit, install a dedicated transfer switch to your electrical panel, and connect the fuel source (typically propane or natural gas). Finally, we perform thorough testing and provide you with clear operating instructions. As a full-service contractor, we manage the entire process from planning to final inspection for your peace of mind.

Yes, that's a common issue we see around the lake. Moisture and temperature swings can cause corrosion in outdoor lighting circuits and connections over time. When we address this, we don't just replace the fixture. We inspect the wiring run, junction boxes, and connections for corrosion, often replacing components with weather-resistant, sealed alternatives designed for our local environment. This proactive repair helps prevent the same problem from recurring, ensuring your outdoor lighting is reliable year-round.

Our comprehensive approach ensures the electrical work is integrated seamlessly into your project timeline and built to last.
