Why San Diego Customers Choose Faith Electric Group

We're a certified Generac installer, so our team is trained to Generac's technical and service standards for automatic standby generators and transfer switches. That certification matters when your backup power system needs to perform during San Diego's occasional grid disruptions.

Our DBE, MBE, and SBE certifications open doors for government projects, educational institutions, healthcare facilities, and commercial developments that require certified contractors. For residential customers, these credentials reflect the same accountability and documentation standards we bring to every job.

What sets our approach apart:

• No shortcuts: We address electrical problems at their source to reduce the chances of the same issues returning
• 24/7 emergency service: Around-the-clock availability for urgent electrical issues, with same-day appointments when time is critical
• Organic growth through trust: We've grown through referrals and repeat business, not aggressive marketing

How Our Process Works for San Diego Projects

We start with an assessment of your system's age, layout, and load requirements. You'll receive a written estimate that details scope, pricing, and any variables that could affect the project before we begin. We handle all City of San Diego electrical permits and, for panel upgrades or generator installations, coordinate directly with SDG&E to confirm meter location, clearances, and service capacity.

Once permits are secured, we schedule installation around your availability. An initial deposit is required, and for larger projects we invoice based on the percentage of work completed, with invoices due upon receipt. After we finish, we verify all work, confirm inspection approvals, and walk you through the completed system so you understand what we did and why.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does financing cover generator or EV charger installations?
Wisetack financing applies to qualifying purchases between $500 and $25,000. That range covers most EV charger and 200A panel upgrade projects. Whole-home generator systems and larger service upgrades typically exceed that ceiling and are paid per project terms with an initial deposit and progress invoicing.

Do you work with property managers on multi-family electrical projects?
Yes. We have hands-on experience with garden-style, mid-rise, and high-rise apartment complexes and regularly coordinate with property managers and general contractors on everything from dwelling unit rough wiring to large switchgear installations.

What happens if my panel upgrade requires SDG&E involvement?
For upgrades requiring utility coordination, we contact SDG&E to confirm clearances and service capacity at your meter location. Disconnect and reconnect scheduling is coordinated directly with the utility, and timing depends on their availability.
