Aluminum Wiring

Report

Deteriorating aluminum wiring imposes a hidden danger. Aluminum corrosion increases resistance to electrical current, causing wire overheat at the connection points. Expanding aluminum causes fasteners to loosen. This can lead to even more overheating and arcing which may start a fire.

Generators

Report

Mr. Electric of Portland and Vancouver is an authorized installer for the Skystream fully integrated, utility-connected 2.5 kW wind generators designed specifically for homes and small businesses. Depending on the wind speed and the amount of energy consumed by a home electrical system, wind turbines typically lower a household electricity bill by 30% to 80%.

Fpe

Report

Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) circuit breaker panels were one of the most common electrical panels installed in U.S. homes between 1950 and 1980. The most dangerous part of FPE panels is that they work fine for years, but after a single overcurrent or short circuit, they may melt and become hazardous.

Zinsco Panels

Report

Many independent home inspectors believe there are hundreds of thousands of homes in the U.S. today with electrical panels that are either recalled or are more than 30 years old. These panels may no longer protect a home electrical system from overcurrents and shorts. A GTE-Sylvania-Zinsco electrical panel is one of the most hazardous ones.

As a Mr. Electric customer, you are our #1 priority. Our promise to you includes prompt, courteous service before, during, and after the job is done. We are dedicated to exceeding your expecations with our outstanding products and unparalelled attention to detail.

In a time-sensitive situation, as always, Mr. Electric delivered. Andre was phenomenal - safety-focused and attentive to details, he was thorough and a pleasure to work with. Service from people like Andre is why we keep coming back.

Pricing was ridiculously high. The power company came out and found I needed to replace my meter base and bring it up to code. Unfortunately he couldn't turn the power back because it was now a fire hazard.

One of the best run companies I've seen. Such a pleasant surprise. To Kayla managing the office (who, incidentally, deserves a raise and promotion) to the prompt response of the electricians & their excellent service.

Prompt service and awesome staff. Kristina and the crew went above and beyond to get new cfci circuits installed in our house over the weekend. A great family-owned business. Highly recommend.

Great service and knowledgeable, locally based Electrician. Did what we asked and more, and even straightened out some things that the previous owner, while doing DYI, didn't do correctly. Bid came in better than most competitors.
