Whippany electrician, every service
Looking for a licensed electrician in Whippany, NJ?
Copper Electric is a licensed electrician serving Whippany, NJ, from Livingston, about 11 minutes away. Whippany is part of Hanover Township. Steven Byrne holds NJ license #19255, and he's insured and bonded. The median Whippany home was built in 1974, and about 45% went up before 1970. Homes from then often have little room left in the panel, so a new charger or kitchen circuit starts there. The post office address for Whippany is zip code 07981.
For Whippany homes and businesses, Steven puts in Level 2 EV chargers on their own 240 volt circuit. He upgrades panels and adds circuits where the house needs more, and he hangs pendants and chandeliers, puts in recessed lights and adds outdoor lights for a yard or a driveway. He wires kitchens and baths and adds GFCI outlets and dimmers. When lights flicker, he finds out why.
Whippany permits go through Hanover Township's Building and Zoning office at 1000 Route 10, right in Whippany. The township wants every form signed and sealed by a licensed contractor, unless you do the work yourself. Ask for inspections by the day before, online, by phone at 973-428-2462 or on paper.
