Newport Beach solar electrician and battery backup installation FAQs
Do you install the solar panels themselves?
Our focus is the electrical work: interconnection, batteries, panels and backup circuits. We coordinate with your solar installer, and we can pair the project with EV charger installation.
Will my solar work during an outage?
Standard grid-tied solar shuts down when the grid does. To keep power on you need a battery or other backup-capable equipment that disconnects from the grid automatically. We can add that to many existing systems.
How many batteries do I need?
One battery typically carries lights, refrigeration, internet and outlets overnight. Running air conditioning or a well pump takes more. We size storage around the circuits you actually want backed up.
Do I need a panel upgrade to add solar?
Sometimes. It depends on your panel's bus rating and main breaker size. We check that first and explain the options, including electrical panel upgrades.
From recent customers
They installed our Level 2 charger in the garage and explained the load calculation in plain English. Clean conduit run, no mess, and the price matched the quote.
After two long outages we had a standby generator put in. They sized it properly instead of pushing the biggest unit, and showed us how the transfer switch works.
Our old 100 amp panel tripped every time the AC and dryer ran together. Bayshore quoted the 200 amp upgrade on the spot, handled the permit and had us back on by late afternoon.
