Experienced Electrical Services in Port Orchard, WA 98366 - Mark’s Electric

Flickering lights in our area are often a sign of a deeper electrical issue, such as loose wiring connections, an overloaded circuit, or problems with the main service connection. For homes with older aluminum wiring, this is a particular concern. It can also point to damaged underground cables, which are susceptible to moisture and wear in our local soil conditions. We recommend having this inspected promptly, as it can be a safety hazard. Our team can diagnose the specific cause in your home and provide a reliable, lasting repair to ensure your system is safe and stable.

Many older homes in the Port Orchard area have electrical panels that weren't designed for today's power demands, from modern kitchens to home offices and electric vehicles. An outdated or overloaded panel can lead to frequent breaker trips, limit your ability to add new appliances, and even pose a fire risk. Upgrading your electric panel increases your home's capacity and safety, providing a stable foundation for all your current and future electrical needs. It's a proactive investment that protects your home and allows for modern conveniences.

Installing a Level 2 EV charger typically requires a dedicated 240-volt circuit, similar to what powers an electric dryer or oven. Our process starts with an inspection of your existing electrical panel to ensure it has the capacity for the new circuit. We then run the proper gauge wiring from the panel to your desired charger location, install a suitable outdoor-rated outlet or hardwire the unit, and ensure everything is properly grounded and permitted. For many homes, this is a straightforward upgrade that lets you charge your vehicle safely and efficiently overnight.
