Kaleo Electric | Trusted Electrical Company in Portland, OR

This is a common issue for Portland homeowners, often related to the automatic transfer switch. Our team at Kaleo Electric is experienced in diagnosing and repairing these systems. We can check for faulty connections, a malfunctioning switch mechanism, or issues with the control wiring to ensure your backup power activates reliably when you need it most.

Upgrading an electrical panel is a significant project we handle regularly. Owner and head electrician Kent Miguel brings 30 years of experience to ensure the job is done correctly and safely. The process involves assessing your home's current and future power needs, securing permits, safely disconnecting the old panel, and installing a new, higher-capacity unit with modern safety features. This upgrade can resolve frequent breaker trips and provide capacity for additions like EV chargers.

Absolutely. We are experienced in EV charging station installation for Portland residents. The service starts with an assessment of your home's electrical capacity, often at the main panel. We then handle all aspects of the installation, from running the proper wire to mounting the station and connecting it to a dedicated circuit. For older homes, we can integrate any necessary panel upgrades to support the new load safely and efficiently.
