A Day in the Trenches Installing Modern Electrical Solutions
14/03/2025Starting the Day Right
As a service technician at Wizard Electric, my day begins before sunrise. After checking the work schedule and loading up the service van with essential supplies, I head out to our first call in New Port Richey. The morning traffic along US-19 is already picking up as other early birds make their way to work.
Morning Service Calls
The first job involves installing LED recessed lighting in a customer’s kitchen renovation. It’s satisfying to help homeowners upgrade their outdated fixtures to energy-efficient options that will save them money in the long run.
Afternoon Challenges
After lunch, I head to Trinity for an electrical panel upgrade. These jobs require precise attention to detail and strict adherence to safety protocols. Working with electrical systems means:
• Ensuring power is completely shut off
• Double-checking all connections
• Following current electrical codes
• Testing everything thoroughly
Emergency Calls
Late afternoon brings an emergency call from Odessa – a homeowner with flickering lights and buzzing sounds from their electrical panel. These urgent situations remind me why we maintain 24/7 availability for our community.
End of Day
As the sun sets over Seven Springs, I complete my final service call installing outdoor security lighting. Before heading back to headquarters, I ensure all paperwork is complete and my van is restocked for tomorrow’s adventures.
Every day brings new challenges and opportunities to help our neighbors in Keystone, Elfers, and throughout our service area maintain safe and efficient electrical systems. It’s rewarding to know that our work helps keep homes and businesses running smoothly.
Safety First
No matter the job or time of day, safety remains our top priority at Wizard Electric. Each service call follows strict protocols to protect both our team and our customers. It’s not just about fixing electrical issues – it’s about creating lasting solutions that our clients can trust.
