W3 Solar Electric | Best Electrical Repair in Santa Cruz, CA

We frequently address this local problem by replacing standard outdoor outlets with weatherproof, in-use covers (WR-rated) and ensuring proper sealing and conduit installation. For homes near the coast or in areas with frequent moisture, we can also install ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets for added safety, which are designed to trip and cut power if water intrusion is detected, protecting your home's electrical system.

Our process begins with a free site assessment to evaluate your roof, current electrical panel, and energy usage. Since we are a full-service electrical contractor (C-10 Licensed #955351), we handle everything from upgrading your electric panel if needed to installing the solar array and integrating it with your home's wiring. We manage the interconnection with PG&E, ensuring your system is set up for net metering, where excess power you send back to the grid earns you credits on your utility bill.
