Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) can leave homes without power for extended periods. A professionally installed standby or portable generator by Wood Electric provides critical backup power to keep your essentials running, like refrigeration, medical equipment, and lighting.

Absolutely. Many older homes in Murrieta have electrical panels that are outdated or at capacity, which can contribute to meter overheating and general system failure, especially when adding modern appliances or during peak usage. Upgrading to a new, higher-capacity electric panel improves safety by reducing the risk of overloads and fires. It also provides a more stable foundation for your home's electrical system, enhancing its resilience during grid fluctuations and making it ready for future additions like EV chargers or solar panels.
