Common Questions

Our El Cajon home's old wiring keeps tripping breakers. Can you diagnose and fix attic short circuits?

Absolutely. Faulty attic wiring, often from aged insulation or rodent damage, is a common issue we address in older El Cajon homes. Our certified electricians will safely inspect your attic circuits, identify the source of the short, and perform the necessary wire repair or replacement. We ensure all work meets current electrical codes for your safety and peace of mind.

As a Tesla-recommended electrician, what's involved in installing a home EV charging station?

Our process includes a site evaluation to determine the best location, assessing your electrical panel's capacity for the added load—often recommending an upgrade if needed. We handle the full installation of the dedicated circuit and charging unit, manage all permitting with the city, and coordinate with SDG&E if required. Being Tesla-trained, we ensure a seamless, code-compliant installation for reliable charging.

We're considering solar for our El Cajon home. Does Smith Electrical handle the entire installation?

Yes, through our Smith Solar service line. We provide a complete turnkey solution, from designing the system and selecting premium equipment to installing the panels, inverters, and necessary wiring. Our team manages the entire process, including system interconnection with SDG&E and securing all local permits. As your local C-10 contractor, we ensure your solar system integrates safely and efficiently with your home's existing electrical infrastructure.
