Home Electrical Repair

Electricity is arguably the most valuable resource we have in our modern society. Without electricity, most of the things we do and rely on on a daily basis wouldn’t be there. So while electricity is so ingrained into our lives that we can take it for granted and hardly notice it’s there, if there’s an electrical problem, it can be difficult to notice anything else.

Our electrical repair technicians know what a hassle any electrical problems can be, which is why we’ll always respond to any requests for service as quickly as possible. And because all of our technicians are licensed, background checked, and professionally trained, you’re guaranteed to receive the best quality service and workmanship available when you call us.

We know how important they are, so we’ll never take any Buffalo electrical repairs lightly.

Always Hire a Professional Electrical Repair Technician

No matter urgent any electrical repairs seem, it’s never okay to attempt to handle them on your own. Trying to take care of electrical problems without professional training is extremely dangerous. If you or someone else aren’t hurt during your attempt, there’s still a chance that you’ve left something undone that poses a huge risk to you, your home, or your family. In fact, faulty electrical wiring is the number one cause of house fires in the United States, according to the National Fire Protection Agency. So in order to make sure that your home is safe, always rely on a professional for any electrical services.

Electrical Troubleshooting

Outdoor and Motion Lighting Installation Martinsville, IN  & Surrounding area

Ensure that your business is safe and secure by installing quality security systems and motion detection light switches. Motion detection light switches are devices that automatically turn lights on when sensors connected to them detect movement, such as a person walking through an office or a vehicle approaching a building. They also turn lights off when there is no movement. A commercial entity that uses motion detection light switches can save money on electric utility bills, as well as improve safety and security on the premises.

A darkened building or section of a building could be an attractive target to vandals or thieves, but motion detection light switches will detect their movement. Security guards will see a light suddenly turning on in an office window or hallways as they patrol or peer through security surveillance cameras, alerting them to the presence of possible unauthorized visitors.

Having motion lighting for your office building or enterprise is important to your business. That’s the reason why it is important to choose a trusted  company like Live Wire Consulting to take care of your electrical needs.

Electrical Troubleshooting

Generator Installation Martinsville & Surrounding Area

What happens when the power goes out?

When the weather’s nice, buying a backup generator isn’t the first thing you think about, but every home or business owner should have one. Installing a generator is just vital to your daily productivity and comfort.

With a properly functioning backup generator, business and home life won’t stop when the electricity goes out. A standby generator is installed just like a central AC unit, with a transfer switch that keeps critical systems and accessories running within seconds of an emergency power outage.

Whether in Indiana changes very quickly from lightning storm, tornado warning, strong winds, deep freeze, or a blizzard, (or all of these in one day) the power could go out at any time. Even just a few hours without power can cause major damage to your home or business. A day or even a few hours without power can have debilitating consequences, and high costs.

When the power goes out, consider the impact on your:

• Sump pump (flooded basement, mold)
• Well pump (no water)
• Plumbing (frozen, damaged pipes, leaks)
• Security systems / alarm systems (risk of theft, vandalism)
• Home office (no phone, internet, or computer)
• Elderly (oxygen, medication, heating/cooling systems, comfort)
• Special needs children (medication, heating/cooling systems, comfort)
• Infants and children (heating/cooling, comfort)
• Frequent travelers (security, food loss)
• Food (refrigeration, freezer)
• Pets (heating/cooling, comfort)
• Power-heavy business (airport, hospital, telecommunications)
• Business Retail (lights, registers, internet/credit card)
• Business loss of production (lost revenue)

Call us to arrange a no-obligation consultation. We’ll come out to your home or business, assess your property and power requirements, listen to your needs, and we’ll make our recommendations from there. It’s an easy process, and can provide your family or business with years of assurance knowing that you’ll always have power when you need it.

Commercial Surge Protection

Whether you need Surge Protection, Surge Protection Installation, or just need a professional electrician, Live Wire Consulting has you covered. We look forward to welcoming you as a customer and being your preferred electrician whenever you have a Surge Protection problem in your business.

Very few business offer the benefit of Surge Protection Systems, even considering that all businesses have some sort of electrical equipment inside. Surge protectors can provide one of the cheapest forms of insurance protection that a business will ever purchase.

An upfront cost for the system and installation can seem extreme, but there is no comparison when you place that up against replacement costs.

Lighting Upgrades

Throughout our years of experience, we have witnessed a variety of benefits that our clients have received from implementing LED lighting. Not only did their budgets improve, but so did their indoor and outdoor environments. Because of these benefits, we have catered our techniques and product offerings to reflect the importance of implementing LED lighting in commercial settings.

Being energy-efficient and environmentally conscious has progressed from simply being a good idea to a way of life but for businesses looking to cut their overhead expenditures by reducing their carbon footprint. One way companies can be on the cutting edge of corporate concern for their energy expenditure is by switching to LED lights.

LEDs are light emitting diodes, small electronic devices that give off far more light per unit of electricity than traditional fluorescent lights or lamps. They are typically more expensive than older methods of providing light, but the money they will end up saving means the expense pays for itself.

At Live Wire Consulting, we can upgrade your fixtures to LED that will create an environment that fosters employee productivity and reduces environmental impact. We strive to keep every customer involved with the process and to educate them on the differences in and benefits of each fixture. When our staff members make recommendations, we explain the optimal configurations for lighting.

Upgrade Your Electrical Panel in Martinsville IN & Surrounding Areas

Watch for Breakers That are Constantly Being Flipped

The electrical panel manages the electricity demands for your business. An electrical panel must be up-to-date to minimize safety risks, especially fire. If an electrical panel cannot keep up with the needs of your business, the electrical surges can easily cause melted wires or small fires. Don’t risk a fire by failing to upgrade your panel. Too often, electrical panels are not upgraded when they need to be, causing irreversible damage that was completely avoidable.

If your business has grown, or you have replaced old equipment with new, then you might already have outgrown your current commercial panel. Likewise, if your building was built in the 50’s, 60’s or 70’s, there is a good chance that your commercial panel might be using outdated technology.

Both of these scenarios can be dangerous and frustrating, if you are not getting consistent, reliable power supply from your panel. Here are a few key factors you need to know about a commercial panel upgrade.

Just because your panel is old or you have expanded your business that does not automatically mean your panel needs an upgrade right away, but there are a few key warning signs that you should not ignore:

1. If the panel looks old, wiring looks worn, and you can no longer make out the labelling on the breakers, then there is a good chance your panel is a senior and due for retirement.

2. If there are any burns or scorches, or signs of corrosion inside the cabinet, then your panel may not be safe and definitely needs to be inspected and probably upgraded as soon as possible.

3. Any humming or fizzing sounds from the panel are also a big red flag.

4. Finally, if you notice excessive heat, that is a sure sign that all is not well.
