Meet the Team
Warner Electric is a Topeka-based residential electrical specialist born from personal experience. After a severe lightning strike damaged my own home—despite standard grounding—I gained a deep appreciation for robust surge protection and dedicated myself to helping neighbors safeguard their homes. With over 20 years focused solely on residential work, I thrive on the challenge of troubleshooting and understanding the unique electrical history of each house. My journey started working for a local contractor, but a desire to specialize led me to start my own business, serving Topeka and the surrounding communities. We provide practical, affordable solutions for everything from everyday repairs and lighting installations to essential services like generator and EV charging station setup, always prioritizing clear communication and reliable service for your home.
Q&A
As a Topeka homeowner, I'm having issues with my outdoor outlets. Could this be a GFCI problem?
It very well could be. GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlets, commonly required in kitchens, bathrooms, and outdoors in Topeka homes, are designed to trip and cut power when they detect a fault to prevent shock. Over time, exposure to moisture or simply age can cause them to fail or trip frequently. As a residential troubleshooting specialist, I can diagnose whether the issue is with the specific outlet, the wiring leading to it, or a problem elsewhere on the circuit, and provide a reliable repair or replacement to restore safe power.
We're considering a home generator for storm season. What does your installation service include?
Our generator installation is a complete service for Topeka residents. We handle the proper placement and setup of the generator unit itself and, crucially, the installation and wiring of the automatic transfer switch. This switch is the brain of the system; it safely disconnects your home from the utility grid when an outage is detected and connects to your generator, preventing backfeed. With over 20 years of residential experience, we ensure the entire system is correctly integrated with your home's electrical panel and complies with all local codes, so you have reliable backup power when you need it most.
My home still has aluminum wiring. Do you handle replacement, and why is it important?
Yes, we specialize in aluminum wiring replacement, a service I strongly recommend for safety. Many older homes in our area were built with aluminum wiring, which can become hazardous over time as it expands and contracts, leading to loose connections and a higher risk of fire. Our process involves rewiring the affected circuits with modern copper wiring and installing specially rated connectors (CO/ALR) at any remaining aluminum termination points. This upgrade significantly enhances the safety and reliability of your home's electrical system, providing peace of mind.
