Your local electrician in town
A while back, we got a call on a cold morning from a family right here in Essex Junction, VT. Their lights kept flickering every time the heat kicked on. They told us they had been searching for a local electrician who would actually pick up the phone and show up when promised. That same afternoon, we were in their driveway, tool bags in hand, coffee still warm.
Moments like that are why we do this. At Broadband Man Electric, being a local electrician is not just about wires and panels. It is about helping neighbors feel safe at home. We have worked in older capes near Five Corners and newer builds on the edges of town. And every home has its own story hiding behind the walls.
Electrical help your home might need
electrical service upgrade
Not long ago, a homeowner called about tripped breakers that just would not stop. They had added a hot tub and a few new appliances. Their system could not keep up. We talked through an electrical service upgrade and what it would mean for their daily life. After the upgrade, the breakers stopped tripping. They told us it felt like their house could finally breathe again.
generator installation
After a heavy storm rolled through town last year, we handled several generator installation projects. One family had lost power for almost two days before. This time, they wanted backup. We helped them choose the right system for their home and walk through how it works. Now when the wind picks up, they do not panic. They just flip a switch and carry on.
electrical rewiring
Some of the homes here were built decades ago. We once worked on a place with old cloth wiring hidden in the attic. The owners had no idea. During that electrical rewiring job, we showed them each step so they felt at ease. Fresh wiring gave them steady lights and fewer worries. Old homes have charm, but safe wiring makes all the difference.
electrical panel replacement
A small business owner near the center of town called us when their panel started making a faint buzzing sound. That is never a good sign. We inspected it and recommended an electrical panel replacement. Once installed, everything ran smoother, and their equipment stopped cutting out. They said they wished they had done it sooner.
electrical panel upgrade
We also help growing families who just need more power. With remote work and kids home after school, energy use adds up. An electrical panel upgrade can give you space for future projects, too. One couple told us they finally felt ready to finish their basement because they had room in the panel. It opened up new plans for their home.
ev charging installation
We have seen more electric vehicles driving around lately. One neighbor asked about ev charging installation in their garage. They were tired of using a slow outlet. We installed a dedicated charger, explained how it works, and made sure it was safe. Now they plug in at night and wake up ready to go.
electrical troubleshooting
Sometimes the issue is not obvious. Lights flicker. Outlets stop working. A breaker trips for no clear reason. That is when electrical troubleshooting comes in. We listen, test, and track down the root cause. One recent call turned out to be a loose connection hidden behind a wall. Small fix, big relief.
Those are some of the common jobs we handle around here, but honestly we take on a lot more:

- Generator Installation
- Electrical Rewiring
- Electrical Panel Replacement
- Electrical Panel Upgrade
- EV Charging Installation
