    Existing panel
    Kobie H.

    I needed to upgrade my electrical panel from 100 to 200amps. I got quotes from three electricians including one from Formosa Electric. Roger who is the owner provided the best quote which included permits with the City and coordination with PG&E. My existing panel was recessed into the stucco wall which I wanted in the upgrade but Roger recommended a surface mounted panel which I'm glad I went with for ease of adding future conduits into the panel without penetrating into the stucco wall. The quote would not have changed if I decided with a recessed panel. The day of the work could not have gone any better than expected. Roger set up a generator before PG&E cut off power. He does the work with his assistant and they worked fast! There was stucco repair work, new riser at the roof and the panel itself. I happen to have extra paint and they painted the stucco. Roger coordinated everything with PG&E and City inspection. All done in 5 hours well before the planned 8 hrs. If I have any future electrical work, I will gladly work with Formosa Electric again.

    New NEMA 14-15 outlet for my Tesla charger!
    Michelle T.

    I recently purchased a Tesla and I was using my dryer outlet to charge my car. I was experiencing issues with the outlet so I called Roger and the first thing he said was "stop doing that" lol. During our first call he gave me SO much helpful information that I knew he was the right man for the job. He has installed thousands of Tesla wall chargers and NEMA 14-15 outlets for mobile connectors. He knew exactly the problem I was having because he's had clients who melted their normal outlets attempting to charge their Teslas. Normal houses are NOT equipped to charge EVs and electricity is NOT something anyone can DIY. Roger was able to stop by my house within a week and quoted me a very reasonable price to get the NEMA 14-15 outlet installed in my garage. It only took him 30min! I appreciate that he was easy to work with, efficient, informative, and didn't try to sell me on anything else. I will definitely reach out to Roger again if I need any electrical work done!

    Roger is very knowledgeable, punctual and friendly to work with. He knows what he is doing. He took care of permits, PG&E service upgrade and 200amp panel upgrade end to end without any hassle. He completed stucco and paint same day. He even shot down my asks for generator hookup because it may not be safe in the way I was suggesting. He would treat your project with same safety as if it is his own home.

    Wall Charger perfectly placed for my OCD. Yay!

    I had a weird job that wasn't confident enough to do myself. They responded same day. Did the job…read morevery quickly and was upfront and honest about the cost and service. I'm very happy with the price I paid and the quality of work completed. I will use them again when I need work done.

    We started smelling burning plastic, resembling a hot glue gun, in our kitchen (and den next to the…read morekitchen) and it had been going on for a week, on and off, with each day becoming more frequent and/or lasting longer. We called the fire department and after doing a visual check, they couldn't find anything and recommended having an electrician come by. I found Adalberto on Yelp and Google. I called and explained the situation to him. He came by the next morning at 8:00 a.m. and did an extremely thorough job checking all types of potential causes. He checked the subpanel, the main panel, all the outlets, the lights, the large appliances, went into the attic, and the crawl space. He was very patient, listened to my concerns and asked questions to come up with ideas of what could be causing the smell. After 5 hours (!) we still couldn't find the source. He did however find that our main breaker wasn't working (we were pulling more amps than it was supposed to). I was getting anxious because the smell was getting more frequent and we still couldn't find the source. Adalberto calmly reassured me, told me to try turning off different circuits at night to isolate if it was a particular circuit, suggested to turn off any non-essential circuits for safety, and that we weren't able to confirm if the issue was even electrical. He said he would order a thermal camera and come back to see if it finds anything. If the thermal camera couldn't find anything, he suggested replacing the breakers in the subpanel to detect any arcs and as a longer term safety measure. A couple days later the thermal camera arrived and he came by immediately to use it and check. He found it was actually my husband's fish tank water heater. My husband had left it on and on top of something plastic and as it was getting cold, the heater turned on and burned the plastic. We really appreciate Adalberto's help in resolving this incident. He never tried to upsell any services and in fact tried to find creative ways to resolve the issue that were as cost effective as possible.
