Four Electrician Levels

Know who you’re working with. It’s good to understand each of the four electrician levels.

Apprentice

As the name suggests, apprentices are learning from an experienced electrician as they work toward becoming a wireman. After two years of supervised work, they must pass a state licensing exam to move forward.

Wireman

Wiremen have at least two years of training under their belts and can perform residential electrical work independently.

Journeyman

A journeyman has an electrical license one level above a wireman and is qualified to work in both residential and commercial settings.

Master

Master electricians are highly experienced, having worked for at least seven years and progressed through all previous licensing levels. They can perform any electrical service you need.

Building and Whole House Rewiring

Do you have an older home or building? It could be that your power use is taxing your wiring system, especially if you’ve got a large family or staff with numerous appliances and devices plugged in. Older wiring systems were designed for much lower power demand and can become overloaded.

Signs of an overloaded system include lights that flicker or dim, breakers that frequently trip, outlets that buzz or make sizzling sounds, and plugged-in cords that are warm or hot to the touch. If any of these signs sound familiar to you, call Abacus today. A technician will perform an inspection and power audit and provide you with recommendations.

New Construction Wiring

Abacus licensed electricians install new electrical wiring in houses and buildings. We collaborate with general contractors to plan and perform the work to set up your new building with a superior wiring system.

We Install Switches and Outlets

For light switch and outlet installation in new construction, upgrades, and additions, call Abacus. We’ll take care of it!

GFCI Outlets

GFCI – Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter – outlets are crucial in preventing people in your home or business from being electrocuted! When current flows the wrong way, GFCIs immediately detect the incorrect flow and shut off the circuit. GFCIs should be installed in kitchens, laundry rooms, bathrooms, garages, and porches.

Electrical Inspections & Repairs in Jollyville

Your Jollyville home should be inspected on a regular basis to ensure that the wiring system is functioning properly and efficiently. An annual inspection will bring to light any problems like faulty wiring or circuit overloads and allow you to take the necessary steps to make repairs. Hire an Abacus technician to perform a wiring inspection, after which you will receive a formal report and recommendations.

In need of new light fixtures in your Jollyville home? Call an Abacus electrician to install can lights, track lights, ceiling lights, recessed lights, sconces, chandeliers, and more. We’re also experienced in fan installation and can do any of these services at the residential or commercial level.

Jollyville, TX – Electrical Panel Replacements and Upgrades

For the reasons discussed under Building and Whole House Rewiring, older builds and homes are susceptible to circuit overloads. Electrical panels, or breaker boxes, may need replacing if you’re experiencing constant tripping of the breakers. Additionally, breakers that are old, worn out, and/or malfunctioning need to be replaced.

Walkway, Patio, & Yard Lighting

Enhance your nighttime property with landscape lighting. Lanterns, path lights, ground lights, and spotlights cast both light and shadows to create visual dimension. Patio and walkway lighting accentuate property features as well as provide light to prevent falls while walking in the dark.

Exterior Lighting for Added Security

Since well-lit properties deter trespassers, installing exterior lighting on your Jollyville property will increase the security of your home or business. We install outbuilding lights, floodlights, and motion-activated lights.

Appliance Wiring (Dedicated Circuits) in Lakeway

Since large appliances like refrigerators and water heaters have high power demands, they are usually connected to a dedicated circuit. Call Abacus to have a licensed electrician install dedicated appliance circuits in your home or business building.

Other appliances needing dedicated circuits include microwaves, dishwashers, wall ovens, electric ranges, washers and dryers, a/c units, garage door openers, saunas, and furnaces.

Arc-Fault Breakers

Arcing often occurs when a circuit overloads and overheats, and electricity jumps between connections. The hot flash of electricity can cause dangerous electrical fires. This is where arc-fault breakers, also called Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters, come in. These specialized circuit breakers detect conditions that may result in arcing, like loose wiring, and instantly switch off the power. Abacus installs arc-fault breakers in residential and commercial properties.

Jollyville Home Generators

Does your Jollyville home have a backup system in case of loss of power? A standby generator provides a power source that will allow you to continue using some devices and appliances even if there’s a power outage. Small generators power a few appliances while large generators allow you to use more devices. An Abacus technician can help you explore your options and install a standby generator in your home.
