Circuit breakers can last 30 to 40 years. However, if you are experiencing frequent issues with your breakers, it may be a sign that they need to be replaced sooner.

An overload is caused by too much power draw, which trips a breaker. If this becomes frequent, additional circuits can be added to your home to separate high-energy appliances and prevent overloads.

A short circuit occurs when aging wires become loose or worn, causing a hot wire to touch a neutral wire and disrupt the current’s path. If the appliance’s cord isn’t damaged, it is a sign that the cables behind the wall need maintenance.

A whole-house generator in Santa Barbara ensures that your home remains powered during outages caused by natural events like storms or earthquakes. It provides a higher wattage capacity to support all essential appliances and systems, offering seamless and automatic backup power. This means that when a power outage occurs, the generator detects the interruption and activates within seconds, restoring electricity to the entire house without manual intervention, which is particularly beneficial in areas prone to power disruptions.

Yes, {fran_brand_name provides comprehensive generator services for both portable and whole-house generators in Montecito, Goleta, and the surrounding Santa Barbara areas. Their experienced team can guide you through the selection process, manage the installation, and ensure that your generator is properly connected to your home's electrical system, including securing necessary permits and setting up an automatic transfer switch if required for whole-house generators.

Choosing between a portable generator and a whole-house generator for your Santa Barbara home depends on your specific needs and budget. If you require backup power for your entire home and want an automatic response to power outages, a whole-house generator is ideal. However, if you only need to power a few devices and prefer a more budget-friendly option, a portable generator might be sufficient. Laughlin Electric can provide personalized advice to help you make the best decision for your situation.

    Laughlin Electric was great. Easy to book an appointment. They sent a reminder of that appointment and info on who was coming. Cody was the best. Arrived when expected. Listened to what I needed sorted out and gave me options on how to go about it. He then quoted me a price and did the work. Basically did everything I would want and expect. They will be my first call for electrical work.

    Rob from Laughlin is incredible at his job. He installed a new ceiling fan box and wired a motion-activated closet light where there was no light previously. He was focused on minimizing holes in our walls (very minor paint/stucco rework needed) and was mindful to control dust and debris created during the work. He has significant expertise and was able to offer us a range of options to complete our tasks. He is super professional and very easy to talk to - we will recommend him and Laughlin to our friends and neighbors for sure. Thanks Rob for a job very well done!

    Laughlin Electric is truly the best! Lucas came out to our home to give us an estimate and he was able to stay and start the project the same day! We were on a timeline with some other projects and Lucas was so accommodating and professional. I would highly recommend Laughlin Electric and Lucas to anyone. Thank you Lucas, we appreciate you so much!

    Lukas Hutchison is full of knowledge and expertise. Young guy, but God does he know what he’s talking about. I had an issue with an overheating 14-50 car charging plug. Lukas informed me of multiple possible problems with the plug, but had a solution for all of those issues. While taking a look at the wiring in the wall he even took the time to trim down the wires because the previous install wasn’t “perfect”. Would def recommend these guys if you’re in need for electrical help. Very professional and attentive to detail. Thanks for your help, Lukas!

    I use Laughlin Electric regularly and have had all excellent experiences with them. Incredible service, you get appointment days and times very quickly, and their quality of work is top tier. Their technicians are great, and I have worked a lot with Cody. He has exceeded expectations on every project he’s done for me. Large or small projects, he can do anything I throw at him. He’s knowledgeable, professional, and a pleasure to work with. I can’t recommend them enough for any electrical needs you have.
