RxServices

Electrical services for Lake Norman & Charlotte.

Emergency triage to planned upgrades, residential and commercial.

Rx 01

Emergency electrical repairs

When something in the house sparks, smells hot or goes dark, Carolina Power Medics makes house calls to find the cause and fix it properly, not just reset it. Facebook describes the company as the go-to for weekend or after-hours emergency repairs.

  • Sparking, buzzing or scorched outlets and switches
  • Dead circuits and partial power loss
  • Breakers that trip or won’t reset
  • Storm and surge damage
  • Cut or damaged landscape and outdoor wiring

Rx 02

Panel upgrades & replacements

Their own before-and-after photos show it best: a crowded basement panel with wiring spilling out of the box, replaced with a clean, labeled modern panel. Panel work is permitted and inspected, and it’s often the first step before an EV charger, a generator or a big remodel.

  • Main panel replacement and upgrades
  • Breaker and fuse box repair or replacement
  • Older panels such as Federal Pacific and Zinsco evaluated
  • Meter base and service equipment work
  • Subpanels for garages, shops and additions

New circuits for kitchens, laundry rooms and shops, repairs to damaged wiring, and full or partial rewiring of older homes. Every run is done to the current North Carolina electrical code and inspected where a permit is required.

  • Dedicated circuits for appliances and shops
  • Whole-home and partial rewiring
  • Outlet and switch installation and repair
  • GFCI and AFCI protection
  • Remodel and addition wiring

Lighting design & install

Lighting is a big share of their work, and their photos show the range: a ring chandelier swapped in under a slatted two-story ceiling, a crystal fixture hung from a tall ladder, glowing tray-ceiling coves, in-cabinet and under-cabinet lighting, toe-kick strips and lit floating stairs.

  • Recessed and can lighting
  • Chandeliers and pendants, including high ceilings
  • Cove, under-cabinet and toe-kick LED lighting
  • Landscape and outdoor lighting
  • Smart switches and dimmers
  • Ceiling fans

EV charger installation

A Level 2 charger needs its own properly sized circuit, and sometimes a panel upgrade or load calculation first. Carolina Power Medics checks your panel’s capacity, runs the circuit and handles the permit.

  • Level 2 hardwired and plug-in chargers
  • Panel capacity and load checks
  • Dedicated 240-volt circuits
  • Garage and driveway locations

Generators

Lake Norman summers bring thunderstorms and the odd tropical remnant, and winters can bring ice. A permanently installed standby generator with a transfer switch keeps power on safely, without back-feeding the utility lines.

  • Standby generator installation
  • Transfer switches
  • Generator-ready panel work
  • Safe connection for portable generators

Surge protection

A whole-home surge protector at the panel is the first line of defense against lightning-induced and utility surges. It works best alongside good plug-in protection for electronics.

  • Panel-mounted whole-home surge protectors
  • Grounding and bonding checks
  • Advice on point-of-use protection

Rx 08

  • Pre-purchase and pre-listing inspections
  • Troubleshooting intermittent problems
  • Older-home and lake-cottage checkups
  • Remodel planning

Not sure what you need?

Describe the symptoms. A diagnosis visit finds the cause, and the treatment plan tells you what it takes. Call or text, or send the form.

Burning smell, sparks or a hot panel? Turn off the breaker or the main if you can do it safely, then call (828) 999-2991. Fire or smoke: get out and call 911. For a downed line, stay clear and call your utility.
