Safety & code

- Storm-damaged service entrances are restored to current code
- Work that touches the utility service is coordinated with PSEG Long Island
FAQ
Questions Long Island customers ask.
What counts as an electrical emergency?
A burning smell, sparking or buzzing panel, scorched outlet, smoke, or sudden partial power loss are all emergencies. Shut off the affected breaker if you can do it safely and call us right away.
Should I reset a breaker that keeps tripping?
Reset it once. If it trips again immediately, stop — a breaker that won't hold is doing its job and protecting you from a fault. Leave it off and call an electrician.
Do you handle storm and flood electrical damage?
Yes. We replace storm-damaged meter pans, weatherheads, and service entrances, and coordinate the PSEG Long Island reconnection so your power is restored safely.
