The National Electrical Code requires that a ceiling fan can only be mounted to a ceiling box that is made specifically for ceiling fans. The State of Wisconsin goes further and states that all ceiling boxes be rated for ceiling fans. Even if the house is old, the code requires this special box.
This is usually caused by one of the following conditions: the wires supplying your home with electricity are broken, the main circuit breaker is tripped, or if you have fuses, one of the main fuses might be blown. If you have circuit breakers, you will want to turn off the main breaker and then turn the main breaker back on. If you have fuses, you will want to replace the two main fuses. If this issue started during a wind storm, you should call WE Energies and have them check their lines.
The electrical code has a specific method for calculating the size of an electrical service. For most homes under 1,500 square feet, if you have an electric range and an electric dryer, a 100A service should be fine. If you have or plan on having a hot tub, you will need to have a 150A or 200A service. If you live in a larger all-electric house, you should consider a larger service. To be certain that your present and future electrical needs are satisfied, we can come to your house free of charge to give you a proposal for a new service.
Yes, it is true that some of the early circuit breakers fail to trip when overloaded and can cause fires. If you have Federal Pacific Electric (FPE) circuit breakers, please follow this link for additional information: http://www.inspect-ny.com/fpe/fpepanel.htm.
This is a very serious condition that is caused by a loose or broken wire in your service or service panel. It is important that this gets repaired as soon as possible. It is best to call WE Energies and have them check the service first to prevent any charges. If they do not find any issues, call an electrician.
This condition may reduce the life of these appliances. This flickering may be caused by a few different conditions. The most common condition is a circuit being overloaded. To fix this, it is necessary to isolate these appliances to dedicated circuits. Another condition is that the electrical service is too small for your house. To rectify this, it would be necessary to increase the size of the electrical service. One other condition that may also cause this is an undersized WE Energies wire from the utility pole to the house or a loose connection. Calling WE Energies and having them come out is a good first step in solving this problem because they will come out and check your service without any charges.
A loose connection usually causes lights to flicker in a house. Once the loose connection is found, it can be repaired quickly. Finding the loose connection, however, may take some time to find.
The basic rule is that when repairing electrical work, you do not need a permit. But when you are adding or replacing certain items, an electrical permit is required. In some communities, you can get a reduced-priced permit that allows you to perform a limited amount of electrical work. We believe that it is very important to apply for an electrical permit if your community requires it. By having the work inspected, you can be certain that the work was done properly. In addition, if there is ever a fire in your house and your insurance company finds out that electrical work was done without a permit, you may find that the insurance company may reject the claim.

I’ve used Best Electric to update my homes. Both occasions they were easy to get in touch with, to schedule, and were professional on site.
When a wire was cut by another company, I called Best Electric to assist again. They were so easy to work with and provided quick service. They also helped provide all the details I needed for insurance very quickly.

I had a no power cause my service mast was down. I called multiple places cause I urgently needed to have my power restored but I also didn’t to get ripped off and taken advantage of because I’m in an emergency situation. This place was straight foward about prices for a routine service call and an urgent one. Plus they didn’t have a ridiculous service fee to assess the situation. They were the quickest to respond and a electrician was at my house within a few hours. Josh P was great. I really appreciate how he showed me the damaged parts and explained what happen, and why they needed to get replaced.(to me thats reassurance that I’m not getting ripped off) He replace my service mast, pole and electric meter in a few hours and my power was restored. The quality of the work was great, and fast but most importantly the price was fair.

Our Technician was Chris R. We had 2 issues. Our ceiling fan (during the very hot weather was not working) He determined that it was the switch and we did not need a new unit (which saved us $200)
We also had a downspout that seemed to have electric. He was able to trace the line to the box (which was not marked) So he labeled the box - turned on the switch and now we will have heat on that downspout for the winter.
He is a very good teacher and technician. We will always ask for him in the future.

Second time I’ve used them. Very responsive from the beginning, unlike others I contacted. Josh and Gavin did my repair. My first issue was corrected by Hunter. All of them are friendly, knowledgeable, and explain things so I can understand. I wanted to use a local family business. They are also BBB accredited and a member of NARi. I cannot say enough great things about them. They are the only ones I use and will recommend. They are on time and complete work in the suggested timeframe. They are honest, reliable, and reasonable. They are the BEST for a reason

These guys are top notch in both customer service and support. I was in a jam and needed an electrician so I searched around and came across Best Electric. I called and spoke with Bruce who was super personable, he took my info, asked me about my problem and gave me his rates before scheduling Josh (tech) to come out to my place.
Josh was early, he introduced himself and shook my hand before diving right into the issue. He needed to go and get a part to complete the job which was totally resolved within 2.5 hours.
I appreciate the experience from start to finish and would highly recommend you contact Best Electric if you are in need of an electrician. They are local and do really great work with fantastic customer service at a competitive rate!
Thanks again guys!

Great company. They were hired as a subcontractor to install my solar and main panel upgrade and did an excellent job. I hired them back to help upgrade and install new circuits throughout the house. They are organized, very professional, and honest. I will definitely be having them over again with any next projects.

Bruce was the project manager and John was on site at my house to perform the work. Both did an awesome job! I am very pleased with the service I received.

Excellent. Found through Qmerit when setting up Rivian home charger installation. Timely, made excellent suggestions to modify the project, and got it done timely and without a problem. Tech was just a good guy. Will call again for the next project!
