Question Answers
My Chicago home is older and I'm worried about the wiring. What should I do?
Aging wiring and overheated outlets are common concerns in Chicago's historic neighborhoods. We recommend starting with a thorough electrical inspection. Our master electricians will assess your system's condition, identify any immediate safety risks like outdated wiring or faulty connections, and provide a clear, prioritized plan. We often handle upgrades like panel replacements and circuit rewiring to bring older homes up to modern safety standards, ensuring your family's protection and improving your home's electrical capacity.
I'm considering an EV charger installation. What does Urban Power's process involve?
Installing an EV charging station starts with a site evaluation at your Chicago home or business. We'll assess your existing electrical panel's capacity to handle the new load—a critical step, especially in older properties. Our master electricians handle the entire installation, from proper circuit and wire installation to mounting the unit and final testing, ensuring it meets all local codes. We also specialize in the necessary panel upgrades if your current system needs more power, providing a complete, compliant solution.
Why would my home or business need a generator installed by a master electrician?
Generator installation is complex and must integrate safely with your main electrical panel and local utility grid. As master electricians, we handle the full scope: assessing your critical power needs, selecting the right generator, performing the proper electrical installation and wiring, and ensuring automatic transfer switches function correctly. This expertise is vital for safety and reliability, preventing back-feed dangers and ensuring your backup power activates seamlessly during a Chicago outage, keeping your essentials running.
