Electrician in Folsom, CA.
Litel Electric is a licensed C-10 electrician in Folsom — panels, EV charger circuits, lighting, rewiring and 24-hour faults. The town is known for its 1895 powerhouse, but the housing is far newer and varies by address. The City of Folsom issues the permit; most of Folsom is on SMUD and some addresses on PG&E, so we confirm which serves yours before scoping.

What to tell us about the property
Much of the housing here is far newer than the electrical history the town is known for, and neither date describes an individual service. What does describe it is the remodel and service record at the address itself. Send the construction year, every date you hold for rewiring, a panel change or a service upgrade, and the load you want. The City of Folsom issues the permit; supply is SMUD for most of Folsom and PG&E for some addresses, so we confirm which serves yours.
The address, the meter and the panel
Send the address and construction year, with photos of the meter, the main panel and any subpanel, plus whatever amperage figure is marked on the main breaker.
What the house is, and what you are adding
Say when the service was last worked on and by whom if you know, then the load you want added and where the new equipment has to end up.
What happened, and any paperwork
Send any City of Folsom permit or inspection paperwork you hold, and say whether the fault or outage reaches your neighbors.

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 Folsom
Coverage, outages, permits, and what to expect when you call.
Do you work in Folsom?
Yes. Folsom is on Litel Electric's confirmed coverage list.
Which utility supplies Folsom?
SMUD supplies Folsom, 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 Folsom 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.
Folsom has a long electrical history — does that mean old wiring?
Not at the level of one address. The 1895 powerhouse ran until 1952, but the town grew from 11,003 people in 1980 to 72,203 in 2010, so much of the housing is later. We work from your build year, the remodel record, and what we find on site.
About Folsom
In 1895 the powerhouse here sent electricity twenty-two miles to Sacramento, the longest overhead run in the country at the time, and it kept running until 1952. Much of the housing is far newer than that history: the town went from 11,003 people in 1980 to 72,203 in 2010. Individual services still vary by address and remodel history.
