Metric Electrical Services

Sometimes it can certainly be gratifying to see the benefit of what we do so vividly shown. Today's example, a wildly overheated neutral bar. Although regularly taking a look inside your electrical panel is not common, or even recommended for a homeowner to undertake themselves, having an electrician take a look if they're ever in your home for any other reason can be beneficial. Especially if your panel is old and in need of replacement. This panel clearly had been experiencing overheating for some time. Most likely due to corrosion on the neutral terminal. At this stage, maintenance is no longer a viable option. Make sure your electrician is taking a look if they're in your panel. It only takes a moment to check everything is tight and secure, and if there's a serious issue they'll be able to let you know.

It has been my privilege to provide maintenance to The Old Attic in one capacity or another for last 7 years or so. Always great to have the chance to look around in between maintaining the lighting. It's quite the collection of items they have there. And free coffee too. http://www.theoldattic.ca/

All of us here are heartened by the increasingly good news in our health region. Island Health is looking strong for a speedy return to normal (the boss saw people sitting INSIDE at Tim Horton's yesterday) although of course to remain vigilant and cautious is the smart move at this time. We're still here, ready to tackle whatever you may need. Drop us a line and we'll be ready to provide that free estimate.

What a crazy time this has been. Metric Electric would like to reassure and remind everyone that while we're taking the new reality very seriously, we're not allowing it to prevent us from providing service to anyone in need of our assistance. Please be aware that although we have been blessed in BC with some progress, the situation remains tenuous and everyone can remain assured that our staff will take all possible precautions, and we recognise that it is far too soon to become complacent. Anyone in need of assistance or even just advice should drop us a line, and we will available. Safety first.

Fun fact of the day: BC Hydro will provide as much as $350 to the purchase and install of a level 2 EV charger. But as always there's a catch. It has to be installed and the rebate application has to be submitted by March 31st, which as of writing is 40 days away. There's still time but, you know, better hurry up. https://app.bchydro.com//incentiv/home-charger-rebate.html

I.... what? Wow, missed a trick there. There was I giving actual stuff again like a sucker. I'm not sure what Hydro is doing with your money, but here's some of it. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10158289148366410&id=150306656409
