Frequently Asked Questions

If you're considering electrical upgrades, it's likely because you have noticed that your home has something wrong with the wiring. When electrical wiring becomes compromised, there may be many signs that indicate you need to have a professional evaluate your system. Some of the signs include:

• Frequently tripped circuit breakers
• Dimming/flickering lights
• Burning odors
• Buzzing noises coming from switches or outlets
• Outlet discoloration

The need for an electrical panel upgrade can happen for many reasons. Older homes are often equipped with fuse boxes or other outdated panels. These units can pose severe safety risks if they aren’t replaced in time. Additional reasons you may need an upgrade include a lack of electrical outlets, frequently tripped circuit breakers, and/or insufficient electrical performance throughout your home.

High-performance electrical outlets play an integral role in the safety and efficiency of your home. To make sure that your home stays safe from electrical issues, we encourage our customers to consider electrical outlet upgrades every ten years. However, you may need to replace them sooner if you have a property that has severely compromised and/or outdated outlets.

At Seidel Electric, we protect homes from the many risks of unforeseen power outages with our Generac Power Pro Professional standby generator installation. Our standby generators are hardwired into your property's electrical infrastructure using high-quality Generac generator products. These units then remain on standby, which allows them to automatically generate power the moment your main electrical supply becomes interrupted.

Generac generators are designed to become your main electrical supply in the event of a power outage. However, while they do offer extended performance and consistency during the event of a power outage, these units are not to be used as a primary electrical source for long periods of time.

If you’re considering standby generator installation, you may be feeling overwhelmed by your options. At Seidel Electric, we are here to help you narrow down your selection. We take time to work with our clients to assess factors that can influence their choice such as their property size, their household power demands, and what units are in their budget.

At Seidel Electric, we recognize the urgency of securing your home with a standby generator. That’s why we have an inventory of readily available Generac generator products. In an effort to minimize supply chain obstacles, Generac has recently opened a second manufacturing plant in South Carolina in addition to their flagship facility in Wisconsin.
