LM Electrical Solutions - Oakland's Experienced Electrical Company

Frequent tripping is a common sign of an overloaded panel, especially in older Oakland homes where electrical systems weren't designed for today's high-power appliances. Our licensed electricians can perform a thorough inspection to diagnose the issue. Often, the solution is repairing a faulty breaker or upgrading your electrical panel to increase capacity, preventing hazards and accommodating modern needs like EV chargers or home offices.

Absolutely. Safely connecting a backup generator requires a professional transfer switch installation to prevent 'backfeed,' which is dangerous to utility workers and your home. LM Electrical Solutions specializes in installing automatic or manual transfer switches and dedicated generator circuits, ensuring your Oakland home has reliable backup power during outages while fully complying with local and national electrical codes for your safety.

Most EV chargers require a dedicated 240-volt circuit. Our electricians will inspect your panel's available capacity and overall condition. For many Oakland homes, this may involve a panel upgrade or sub-panel installation to handle the new load safely. We handle the entire process—from permitting and panel work to the final charger installation—ensuring a fast, safe, and code-compliant setup for your electric vehicle.
