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 Home EV Charging Setup in Hartford County, CT
Home EV charging setup is one of the most practical upgrades a Hartford County homeowner can make after buying an electric vehicle. O'Connell's Electrical Contractors handles the full scope of the job, from evaluating your electrical panel to running a dedicated circuit and mounting the charger in your garage or on an exterior wall. Many homes across Hartford County were built with 100-amp service, which often cannot support a Level 2 charger without a panel assessment and possible upgrade. We check your panel capacity and run a load calculation before any wiring begins, so there are no surprises. We serve homeowners across Hartford County and the surrounding counties of Windham, Tolland, New London, and Middlesex. Every installation follows Connecticut electrical code and goes through the required inspection process. If your home is ready to charge, call O'Connell's Electrical Contractors to get started.
