About La Puente

First Electric provides residential and commercial electrical services in La Puente, CA. La Puente's mid-century homes built during the post-World War II boom typically have 60 to 100-amp electrical panels that struggle with modern demands including multiple air conditioning units, home offices, EV chargers, and smart home devices. Many homeowners discover their panels are at capacity when adding appliances, installing EV chargers, or undertaking remodels. We specialize in upgrading mid-century homes while preserving architectural character, updating outdated wiring, installing GFCI and AFCI protection, and ensuring systems meet current California Electrical Code. We handle all La Puente permit applications.
