Recent Acton Success Stories
Historic Home Panel Upgrade Near Old Common
A family in a 1920s colonial home near Old Common contacted us about frequent circuit breaker trips. Our inspection revealed a 60-amp fuse box struggling with modern electrical loads. We upgraded to a 200-amp panel with AFCI protection, adding dedicated circuits for kitchen appliances and a future EV charger. The family now enjoys reliable power with room for future electrical needs.
Generator Installation for Family Security Near Nagog Pond
After losing power for three days during a winter storm, an Acton family near Nagog Pond decided to invest in backup power. We installed a 20kW standby generator with automatic transfer switch, ensuring their home maintains power for essential systems during outages. The system has activated multiple times, providing peace of mind and continuous comfort.
What are the most common electrical problems in Acton homes?
Based on our 5+ years serving Acton since 2019, these are the most frequent electrical issues we encounter and their typical solutions:
- Historic Home Wiring Challenges: Many of Acton’s colonial and historic homes still have knob-and-tube wiring that requires careful replacement to preserve architectural character.
- Insufficient Electrical Capacity (common in pre-1980 homes): Older electrical services can’t safely handle modern loads like heat pumps, EV chargers, and home offices.

- Storm Damage from Mature Trees: Acton’s tree-lined neighborhoods cause frequent power outages during severe weather, making backup generators essential.
- Well Pump and Septic System Electrical: Many Acton properties rely on private wells and septic systems requiring specialized electrical knowledge.
