Millburn electrician, every service
Looking for a licensed electrician in Millburn, NJ?
Copper Electric is a licensed electrician serving Millburn, NJ, from Livingston, about 13 minutes away. Steven Byrne holds NJ license #19255, and he's insured and bonded. In the 07041 ZIP, nearly half the homes were built in 1939 or earlier, and the median home dates to 1943. Houses that old often have old wiring and a panel that was never sized for central air or a car charger. The post office address for Millburn is zip code 07041.
Steven works on homes and businesses in Millburn. He upgrades panels, adds circuits and puts in Level 2 EV chargers, and he hangs chandeliers and pendants and adds recessed and outdoor lights. He wires kitchens and baths, adds GFCI outlets, and tracks down dead outlets and breakers that trip.
Millburn permits go through the township Building Department, 973-564-7055, open weekdays 8:30 to 3:30. Inspections must be asked for in writing, online or on the form, at least a day ahead. In the Wyoming Historic District, outside changes need the historic commission's OK. Selling? The township wants a smoke detector certificate, not a certificate of occupancy, so close out any open permit first. Millburn gets electric from JCP&L. Call Steven at 973-900-3543.
