When you need electrical work done in your home or business, there are some key qualities to look for before making any hiring decisions. It is never a good idea to open a phone book and randomly pick a company or choose the first name that pops up on an internet search. You need to do a little research before you hire a Beverly Hills electrician to come into your home or business. At The Electric Connection, we work hard to live up to each of the following standards so our customers can feel confident giving us a call.

Licensed and Bonded

This is probably one of the most important elements. It is absolutely crucial you only hire an electrician who has been licensed through the state to do any electrical work. Failing to do so could end up costing you quite a bit of money down the road. If by some tragic chain of events the electrical work is faulty and causes a home fire, you could be risking your homeowner’s insurance coverage. Bonded electricians also protect you from incurring any additional costs that may arise from poor work that needs to be fixed.

Professional

When somebody comes into your home or business, you expect them to act and look like the professional you are paying for. Clean uniforms add to that professional look. Courteous and polite are other traits you will want to have in an electrician. Beverly Hills home and business owners will want to be able to converse with somebody who is respectful and will respect somebody else’s property.

Prompt

You need an electrician who will show up on time and get the job done in a timely fashion. You don’t have time to waste waiting around for an electrician to show up. Nor do you want to wait weeks to get a job completed.

Give The Electric Connection a call today and you can rest assured you will be getting an electrician who meets all these needs.

Fun Fact: “Americans might not have a Columbus Day if Christopher Columbus had not been born in Italy. Out of pride for their native son, the Italian population of New York City organized the first celebration of the discovery of America on October 12, 1866.” *

Although declared a federal holiday in 1937 by President Franklin Roosevelt, Columbus Day is not celebrated in California, Nevada or Hawaii. Controversy over the “discovery” of America exists because native people inhabited the land prior to the arrival of the Europeans. **

Imagine never having to go to the gas station again. While that may not happen just yet, you can certainly minimize the number of trips to the gas station to put fuel in your car if you have an electric car. However, some people who do have electric cars are finding they are looking for a station of another kind. An electric vehicle charging station. These stations are growing in popularity and are popping up all over, but it can still be a bit problematic for those that are on the go a lot. You need your own EV charging station install. Los Angeles homeowners who have an electric car and would prefer to charge it when they are at home and on their own time can give The Electric Connection a call.

The installation of an EV charging station can make your life a little easier. When you are at home, your car is charging. A charging station isn’t the same as the standard plug in option that comes with all electric cars. The stations charge the car at a much faster rate, which makes them so desirable in a world where we are constantly on the go. You don’t have to worry about leaving your car plugged in for a full 24 hours to get that full charge when you have your own charging station set up at your house.

The fast charging systems will need some electrical wiring, which is always best left to the professionals. You don’t want to risk electrocution or accidentally frying your new charging system. You also run the risk of putting your home in jeopardy of a wire shorting out, which can cause an electrical fire. It is best to have a certified electrician install the necessary wiring and the dedicated circuit needed to run the charger. Give The Electric Connection a call today and schedule your electric car charging station installation.
