FAQs
My lights in Marion keep flickering, especially when an appliance turns on. What could be causing this, and how can you fix it?
Flickering lights in older Marion homes often point to overloaded circuits, a failing electrical panel, or loose wiring connections—common issues we see locally. Our electricians will perform a thorough electrical inspection to pinpoint the exact cause. The solution may involve repairing loose wires in your fixtures or outlets, upgrading an outdated panel to safely handle your home's power demands, or installing dedicated circuits for major appliances. We ensure all repairs meet current safety codes to protect your home and family.
My generator's transfer switch isn't working properly. Can K&W Electric repair or install a new one?
Absolutely. A malfunctioning transfer switch is a common and serious issue for Marion homeowners who rely on backup power. We specialize in both generator installation and repair, including troubleshooting and fixing transfer switch problems. Our team can diagnose whether the switch needs repair or if an upgrade to a newer, more reliable model is the best solution. We ensure your generator system is installed and connected correctly, so it seamlessly takes over during a power outage, keeping your essential appliances running safely.
I'm considering an electric vehicle. Do you install home EV charging stations in the Marion area?
Yes, we do! As more residents in McDowell County switch to electric vehicles, home charging station installation is one of our key services. We handle the entire process, from assessing your home's electrical capacity (often requiring a panel upgrade or repair) to professionally installing a Level 2 charging station. This service ensures your vehicle charges quickly and safely overnight. We'll also check your wiring and outlets to support the new load, providing a complete, code-compliant solution tailored to your home.
