San Bruno Electrician — Reliable Power Near the Airport

Why San Bruno Is Unique

San Bruno sits right next to San Francisco International Airport (SFO), mixing quiet residential neighborhoods with busy commercial corridors. Many homes here were built in the mid-20th century and still run on outdated wiring and panels. At the same time, garages and driveways are becoming popular spots for EV charger installs, while small businesses need reliable power for shops, restaurants, and offices.

The coastal fog and airport-area weather can also speed up corrosion on outdoor outlets and lighting. Homeowners often notice tripping breakers when running dryers, microwaves, and heaters together on old circuits.

What I Typically See in San Bruno

Outdated breaker panels with no space for new circuits.
Aluminum wiring and ungrounded outlets in older homes.
Converted garages needing dedicated lines for workshops or EV chargers.
Moisture-damaged outdoor outlets and lighting fixtures.
Small restaurants and shops with overloaded kitchen or refrigeration circuits.

Common Fixes I Do in San Bruno

Panel upgrades with AFCI/GFCI protection and more capacity.
Rewiring old circuits to modern copper wiring with grounding.
EV charger installs — Tesla Wall Connector, Level 2 chargers, and load balancing setups.
Dedicated 20A circuits for kitchens, dryers, and garage workshops.

“In San Bruno, most calls are either for EV chargers in garages or panel upgrades in mid-century homes that just can’t keep up anymore.”
