In this commercial job, we disconnected and relocated two panel lights from a 277V system, added one and repowered them from a 120V circuiting, and added remote control Caséta switches for use in an optics lab.

Fun and creative small project. Thanks for your business!

Super-clean panel upgrade! Home in plano with old Federal Pacific panel in bedroom closet.

We upgraded to a Square D QO panel with surge protector, new ground rods, and upgraded his range circuit from 30A to 40A at the same time.

The old panel was gutted and used as a junction box, and door bolted shut.

It wad a textbook job and went very smoothly. Thanks to my customer, Dan, for the opportunity!

We have successfully completed a Tesla Wall Connector installation that presented a unique challenge. The client did not want us to remove drywall to run the cable from the bottom of the panel, which is the standard procedure. We were able to find a solution that met the client's request while also following the electrical code for securing the cable to the box. View the results! To experience a seamless EV charger installation, call Acoustic Electric today!

Just finished recessed lighting job in McKinney. Family had lived with crummy ceiling fan light for years and has been wanting to upgrade for a while.

I forgot to take a “before” picture!

Not every job is a big one — and that’s okay.

Today’s call: a brand new home, beautiful in every way except one. The builder installed the vanity lights upside down — shining up at the ceiling instead of down where you need the light. The homeowner asked them to fix it. They wouldn’t come back.

So she called us. A little while later, the fixtures were flipped, the bathroom looked the way it should, and she had one less thing bugging her every morning.

No drama, no big invoice. Just a small fix, done neatly, for a happy customer. Sometimes that’s all it’s about — making someone’s home a little more pleasant to live in.

Got a small annoyance you’ve been living with? We’re happy to take those calls too.

Why does my breaker keep tripping? Usually one of three things: an overloaded circuit (too much on one line), a short somewhere, or a breaker that’s just worn out.

The newest wrinkle is the requirement of ground fault and arc fault breakers, which can be extremely sensitive to intermittent or borderline conditions which can be an early indicator of a shock or fire hazard.

One trip? Reset it and watch. Trips again? Stop resetting it — that breaker is doing its job telling you something’s wrong. That’s when you call us!

Before and after pics at a recent client. Chandelier had come off ceiling, fortunately he was holding it when it let go so it didn’t come crashing down!

The second set is adding a receptacle in his attic to get rid of a fire hazard (extension cord).
