Santa Clarita Electrician — Backup Power & Electrical Specialists

The PSPS-zone authority for the Santa Clarita Valley.

Our original office, founded in 2007 and built around one fact: Santa Clarita sits in Southern California Edison territory, and SCE's Public Safety Power Shutoffs have hit this valley every fire season since 2018. Backup generators, panel upgrades, and EV charging — permitted, inspected, and done for you.

Why a dedicated Santa Clarita office.

Santa Clarita Valley sits inside some of SCE's most PSPS-active transmission corridors — Saugus, Canyon Country, Castaic, and the communities near Bouquet Canyon Road have all seen multi-day shutoffs in recent fire seasons. We opened here in 2007 and built the practice around that reality: whole-home standby power, transfer switches, and the SCE interconnection know-how most installers get wrong. This is the office that has been preparing SCV families for the next outage for nearly two decades.

The full catalog
SCE territory & wildfire country

Built for SCE territory & wildfire country.

Santa Clarita Valley sits inside Southern California Edison's most PSPS-active transmission corridors. When SCE implements a Public Safety Power Shutoff — to prevent energized lines from igniting in high-wind, high-fire-risk conditions — most of the valley goes dark. Saugus, Canyon Country, Castaic, and the communities nearest Bouquet Canyon Road have experienced multi-day shutoffs in recent fire seasons.

We designed our Santa Clarita operation around this reality. Our backup generator installation practice covers the full spectrum: from whole-home standby units that kick in automatically within seconds, to automatic transfer switches that bridge an existing portable generator into your home's electrical panel safely. Every installation is permitted and inspected.

We also understand SCE's interconnection requirements for solar + generator systems — a combination that most installers get wrong. If you're asking how a solar system, a backup battery, and a standby generator work together without creating a safety hazard, that's a question we're prepared to answer in plain English.
