Electrician in Moore, OK

Need an electrician in Moore, OK? We handle residential and light commercial electrical work across Moore, from the original townsite and the older streets off Broadway and SW 4th to neighborhoods around Westmoore, Brookhaven, Eastmoor and the newer developments toward the Norman line.

Moore sits in Cleveland County between Oklahoma City and Norman, and its housing tells the story of the city: 1960s and 1970s ranch homes, a wave of 1980s and 1990s subdivisions, and a large number of homes rebuilt after the 1999 and 2013 tornadoes. Each group of homes has different electrical issues, and this page walks through what Moore homeowners actually call about.

Electrical Services in Moore, OK

Electrical Repair and Troubleshooting

Dead outlets, flickering lights, warm switch plates, buzzing, burning smells, or one room suddenly without power. We trace the fault to its source, whether that's a loose connection, a failed device, a damaged cable or an overloaded circuit, and repair it so it stays fixed. See electrical wiring repair in Moore.

Electrical Panel Upgrades and Replacement

Plenty of older Moore homes still run on 100-amp service, and some have problem panels like Federal Pacific or Zinsco. If you're adding central air, a heat pump, a storm shelter with power, a shop or an EV charger, or your panel is simply full, a 100 to 200 amp upgrade is often the right move. We handle the load calculation, permit, inspection and utility coordination. See electrical panel upgrades in Moore.

Circuit Breaker Repair

A breaker that trips with little load, won't reset, buzzes or feels warm needs attention. We test whether the breaker, the circuit or the panel is the real problem and replace breakers with the correct listed type. See circuit breaker replacement in Moore.

Wiring Installation and Rewiring

New circuits for kitchens, garages, workshops and additions, dedicated appliance circuits, and rewiring for older homes with ungrounded or deteriorating wiring. See home rewiring in Moore and appliance circuit installation in Moore.

Lighting Installation

Chandeliers, pendants, recessed and LED lighting, under-cabinet lights, porch, patio and landscape lighting, plus security lighting. Heavy fixtures go on properly rated boxes; outdoor fixtures are wet-rated and GFCI protected. See lighting installation in Moore and recessed lighting in Moore.

Outlet Repair and Installation

Replacing worn or two-prong outlets, adding new outlets, USB outlets, 240-volt outlets for appliances and shops, and GFCI protection for kitchens, baths, garages and outdoors. See outlet installation in Moore and GFCI outlets in Moore.

Ceiling Fan Installation

Fan replacements, light-to-fan conversions, new fans with new wiring and switches, and damp-rated patio fans, always on a fan-rated box. See ceiling fan installation in Moore.

Emergency Electrical Service

Sparking, smoke, burning smells, a hot panel or a total loss of power that isn't a utility outage should be treated as urgent. Shut off the affected circuit or the main if it's safe, and call. See emergency electrical repair in Moore.

Storm Protection and Backup Power

Moore knows severe weather better than almost anywhere. We install whole-home surge protection at the panel and backup generators, inlets and transfer switches so your refrigerator, sump, medical equipment and HVAC keep running through outages.

Common Electrical Problems in Moore Homes

1960s and 1970s homes

Older homes near the original townsite and the streets east and west of I-35 often have original panels, ungrounded two-prong outlets and circuits sized long before central air and modern kitchens. Some homes from the late 1960s and 1970s were built with aluminum branch wiring, which needs compatible devices and connectors to stay safe. Common calls: full panels, warm outlets, flickering lights, and breakers that trip every summer.

1980s and 1990s subdivisions

These homes are usually in decent shape, but original breakers, outlets and switches are now 30 to 40 years old. Backstabbed outlet connections loosen over time and cause dead outlets and intermittent flicker. Many of these homes also have 150- or 200-amp panels that are getting crowded with added circuits.

Rebuilt and newer homes

Homes rebuilt after the 1999 and 2013 tornadoes and newer construction toward Norman typically have modern panels and AFCI protection. Work here tends to be additions: shop and garage circuits, EV chargers, ceiling fans where the builder left a light box, outdoor lighting, surge protection, and generator hookups.

Storms, surges and outages

Spring storm season brings lightning, high winds, hail and the occasional ice storm. We see surge-damaged HVAC boards and appliances, damaged service masts and weatherheads, failed exterior fixtures, and plenty of requests for generator inlets and whole-home surge protection afterward. If your service mast or meter base was damaged in a storm, the utility will usually require an electrician to repair it before power can be restored.

Permits and Licensing in Moore

Panel upgrades, service changes, new circuits and larger rewiring jobs in Moore generally require an electrical permit and inspection through the City of Moore. Simple repairs and like-for-like device swaps usually don't. We'll tell you up front and handle the permit. In Oklahoma, electricians are licensed through the Construction Industries Board, and you're always entitled to ask any electrician for their license number before work begins. Service upgrades also need coordination with OG&E for the disconnect and reconnect.

Electrical Costs in Moore

Every job is quoted in writing after we see it. As a general guide:

• Small repairs (failed outlet, switch or breaker): usually in the low hundreds including the visit
• Ceiling fan or light fixture installation: low hundreds, more with new wiring or high ceilings
• New circuits: depend on distance from the panel and wire size
• Whole-home surge protection: usually in the hundreds
• Panel replacement or 100 to 200 amp upgrade: typically low to mid thousands
• Standby generator: several thousand dollars and up

Our Oklahoma electrician cost guide explains what drives these numbers.

Signs You Should Call an Electrician

• Breakers trip repeatedly or won't reset
• Lights flicker or dim when the AC or appliances start
