Electrical Problems York Homeowners Call About

You do not always need to know the name of the electrical service you need before calling an electrician. Most customers start with something in the house that simply is not working the way it should.

  • Breakers repeatedly tripping
  • Older electrical panels
  • Burning smells near electrical equipment
  • Outlets that stop working
  • Flickering or dimming lights
  • Adding large electrical loads to an existing panel
  • Remodeling older homes
  • Adding power to garages or workshops
  • Installing an EV charger
  • Needing additional dedicated circuits

EV chargers and panel upgrades often go together in York homes: a Level 2 charger is a large continuous load, and the panel needs to handle it along with everything else in the house.

For York businesses, lighting upgrades and added circuits for equipment are common starting points.

Electrical Panel Work in York

Electrical panels are one of the areas Sky's works with regularly around York.

An older panel does not automatically mean the entire electrical system needs to be replaced. The right recommendation depends on the panel itself, its condition, the existing service size, the electrical loads in the home, and what the homeowner plans to add.

A homeowner considering an EV charger, electric range, HVAC equipment, remodel, shop, or other large electrical load may need the existing service evaluated first.

Sky's also recommends having Federal Pacific / FPE equipment evaluated because of concerns associated with that older equipment.

EV Charger Installation in York, NE

Adding a Level 2 EV charger usually requires more than choosing a charger and mounting it to the garage wall.

The existing electrical panel and service need to be evaluated to determine whether there is enough capacity for the additional load. The installation can also change depending on:

  • Distance from the electrical panel
  • Charger location
  • Available panel capacity
  • Plug-in vs. hardwired installation
  • Circuit and conductor requirements
