Electrician in Citrus Heights, CA.
Litel Electric is a licensed C-10 electrician in Citrus Heights — panels, EV charger circuits, lighting, rewiring and 24-hour faults. Cut into ten-acre lots in 1910 and a city only since 1997, so older permit records may sit with the county rather than city hall. The City of Citrus Heights permits today; SMUD supplies the power.

What to tell us about the property
The ten-acre lots drawn here were cut down into house lots over the century that followed, and a parcel that was split along the way can carry a meter position that no longer matches how the property is used. Send the address, the build year, and say whether the parcel has ever been divided. Older permit records may sit with Sacramento County, because incorporation came long after most of the building.
The address, the meter and the panel
Send the street address, a photo of the meter and main breaker, and the amperage printed on the main breaker handle if you can read it.
What the house is, and what you are adding
Note the year built and any addition, garage conversion or kitchen remodel since, plus the equipment you intend to add, so the load calculation starts from real numbers.
What happened, and any paperwork
Older permit records here may sit with the county rather than the city, so send anything you hold and we confirm the City of Citrus Heights path for the work.

Helpful guides
Outage: utility or home?
A broad outage usually starts with the utility. A partial outage or a condition isolated to one property may need an electrician.
Read guideWhen a panel needs replacing
What matters is not how old the box looks. It is whether the equipment, condition, capacity, and repair path still fit the property.
Read guideLevel 2 EV charger
Start with parking, charging needs, panel capacity, and the circuit route. The charger itself is only one part of the installation.

Questions about electrical work in Citrus Heights
Coverage, outages, permits, and what to expect when you call.
Do you work in Citrus Heights?
Yes. Citrus Heights is on Litel Electric's confirmed coverage list.
Which utility supplies Citrus Heights?
SMUD supplies Citrus Heights, so an outage that covers the street starts with them. If only your property is dark, that points at your own equipment — call and say what you can see.
How do I confirm my address is covered?
Send the address. Boundaries here do not follow the postal name — an address that posts as Citrus Heights can sit outside the city limits, which changes which office permits the work — so the answer comes from the address rather than the town.
How fast can you get here?
Call and tell us what happened. We will ask what you can see, hear, or smell, and tell you what to do next — sometimes the right advice is to leave everything alone until someone looks at it.
My Citrus Heights house is older than the city — who permits the work now?
The City of Citrus Heights, which has been the authority since incorporation in 1997. Records for earlier work may sit with the county instead. Send the address and any paperwork you have, and we confirm both before anything is filed.
About Citrus Heights
Cut into ten-acre lots in 1910, 21,760 people by the 1970 census, and a city only since 1997. Because incorporation came later, older permit history may sit with the county rather than with city hall.
