I recently hired O’connell’s electric for a complete service upgrade from 100-amp to 200-amp, along with some additional wiring. From start to finish, the work was executed to the highest professional standard—clean, precise, and fully code-compliant. What truly stood out was Michael’s exceptional approach to the job. He was incredibly polite and courteous, took the time to thoroughly explain every step of the process, and answered all of our questions in clear, easy-to-understand terms. The upgrade was completed efficiently and with minimal disruption to our home, and the final result is outstanding. Beyond the technical expertise, he is simply an excellent human being—patient, respectful, and genuinely caring about doing the job right. I felt completely confident and well-informed throughout the entire project. I highly recommend Michael from O’Connell Electric to anyone needing electrical work. Professional, trustworthy, and truly top-tier. We will definitely use their services again and will be referring them to family and friends. Thank you for the outstanding work!

Expert EV Charger Installation in Hartford County, CT
EV charger installation in Hartford County requires more than mounting a unit on a wall. O'Connell's Electrical Contractors handles the full electrical scope, from assessing your panel to running a dedicated circuit and securing the charger. Many homes across Hartford County were built decades ago with panels sized for far lighter loads. Older 100-amp service is common in towns like New Britain, Bristol, and Manchester. That capacity often falls short when you add a Level 2 charger, which needs a dedicated 40- to 50-amp circuit. We evaluate your existing panel before any work begins. If an upgrade is needed, we handle that too. We serve homeowners and businesses across Hartford County, Tolland County, Windham County, Middlesex County, and New London County. Whether your charger goes in a garage, a carport, or an outdoor wall, we wire it to code and get it ready to use. Call O'Connell's to get your EV charging setup done right.
