Electrical Panel Upgrade - overhead lighting
In October, 2015, I had pot lights installed on my main floor by another electrician. I started to have this intermittent flickering. The electrician was of no help.
In January, I had my electrical panel upgraded to 200amp service, and also had overhead lighting installed throughout my house, hoping that would eliminate the flickering.
No such luck.
Now into March, the flickering continues, but Kevin and the team at Captain Electric have been amazing.
They have been working with me and Whitby Hydro to help troubleshoot this issue.
They have truly gone above and beyond my expectations.
The whole team at Captain Electric is fantastic.

Thank you for your review. The issue with the flickering lights is certainly something that needs to be corrected, and it has been identified as an outside problem with rapid voltage fluctuation (either with the transformer or smart meter). We are happy to help as much as we can with the Local Distribution Company (Whitby Hydro). This should be resolved very soon. ... Your new Electrical Service, upgraded from 100 Amp to 200 Amp and going from Fuses to Breakers prepares you for increased electrical loads in the future - items such as a Hot Tub or Electric Vehicle Charging Station. Thank you for choosing Captain Electric, and we look forward to seeing you again. ...bw
