RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL HEAVY -UPS
“Heavy-up” refers to a home or building electrical renovation that increases the amperage that comes into your building at the electrical panel. If your home or office building requires the ability to handle a heavier load of electricity, we can upgrade your electrical system. In Bethesda, DC and the surrounding suburbs, the heavy-up process involves the submission of plans and permit applications to the local government for approval and inspections.
All of our work adheres to National Electrical Code and to Pepco’s requirements. If your home or office building needs more power, call or email us and we will do a site survey and submit a detailed proposal.
GENERATOR INSTALLATIONS
Our lives depend on power
It is simple – our lives depend on power. Losing electricity can be a scary thing, when you cannot run your A/C or your heating system, and complete your daily essentials like cooking, laundry or the kids’ bath time. And what happens to all the food in the refrigerator and freezer? Your lights, televisions, computers, radio, and even special phones can be rendered useless. You are cut off from the rest of the world! Do you have someone with special needs or who require medical equipment? What happens to them? Isn’t it time to provide a little peace of mind to your family? Have Meyer Electrical Services, Inc. preform your generator
Kohler and Generac Guardian Series generators (air and liquid-cooled)
Generac Guardian Series generators (air cooled) are available in 8kW to 22kW models. They make standby power a savvy investment for residential applications. For small business power standby solutions we offer 25kW to 60kW QT and Protector Series units. These revolutionary generators are exceptionally quiet, environmentally friendly and so affordable that they can often pay for themselves during a single power outage in commercial and industrial applications. The units are fully enclosed in an insulated weatherproof enclosure. Generac generators are the only engine designed specifically for extended generator use, not adapted from lawn and garden applications. You decide what items are important to you in a power outage and we will help you to determine the power you need. Whether you want basic circuits or your whole home powered, Meyer Electrical Services, Inc. will offer the right generator solution for you, complete an installation and provide regular preventative maintenance services according to installation contract.

I wanted to thank you for all the work you have done for us at both of our houses this past year. During a stressful time, you always arrived with solutions and returned again and again to address all the other emergencies and electrical surprises. Your talents and customer service are so appreciated by Kip and me and I just wanted to let you know how terrific it is knowing you are there to rely on. Your professionalism, candor and expertise make our lives better truly!
I wanted you to know that last night at the Finance Committee Meeting I complimented you and told everyone how fantastic you had been throughout our “water damage emergency”. You really were super and your loyalty, support and guidance meant a great deal to me. St. Paul’s Rock Creek Parish is lucky to have you as our electrician.
Thank you! You were fast, professional, courteous and you locked the house securely when you left. Much obliged!
Many thanks to you...and Patrick for getting us ship-shape and ready for the holidays. I've been waiting for Christmas lights for 25 years! And it's good to be able to see in the basement and I know all the plugs are properly installed and grounded. All the best to you.
I just wanted you to know how happy my wife and I were with the electrical service you provided for us recently. You were recommended by some friends and you more then lived up to their recommendation. The work you did the living area of the house - mostly changing the outlets to the 3-prong type- was neat and professional. I particularly appreciate the way you ran the wire on the outside of the house behind the downspout and along a ledge so that it wouldn't show and that you ran the other exterior wires through metal casing so that they wouldn't be exposed. The D.C. government inspector approved your heavy-up with no problems and PEPCO came shortly thereafter to finish their part of the job. Thanks again for the efficient, professional, and reasonably-priced service you performed.
After a series of power outages in our area, I decided to by a back up generator which keeps my family comfortable and allows my home business to continue operating. Walt recommended equipment and supervised the entire installation from delivery to approval by the local utility. He was on site when needed and was available for follow-up questions. I've used Walt's company for years for installation of ceiling fans to additional lighting and electrical repairs. Walt always gives me a day and time for service. it's usually the same day. He is prompt and efficient and his price is competitive and fair.
Very easy to work with, attentive to detail, understood the work I explained. Put in a better switch than I had before.
Truck lighting, scorces, new A/C unit. Excellent. Well Meyer listened to us and found a way to meet our needs, which were a bit unusual.
Numerous recessed lighting fixtures installed throughout the house (~15-20). Ceiling fan installed. Lighting installed in ~five closets. Meyer Electric did a big job for us, including electrical, lighting, and ceiling fan work. Everything went very well, and we were pleased with the work. It is not about six years later, and everything still works great. One thing that was really great about what Walt Meyer did was that he did his best not to create a lot of holes in the wall or other damage that would have to be repaired. He installed a lot of lights (and a fan) and there was very little that had to be done "afterwards" to fix any holes, etc. We were having a painter come in afterwards, so we were prepared to have him patch thing up, but he hardly had anything to do. Meyer Electric did a great job with our project, and we would definitely use them again. In fact since this job was done, we have!
Why Overloaded Circuits Are Dangerous
Our lives benefit from using electricity in many ways. However, electricity can also mean danger at home. The United States averages 500 deaths, 1,400 injuries, and property damage amounting to $1.3 billion resulting from 51,000 home electrical fires yearly. An overloaded electrical circuit is the most common hazard; the following will cover how to prevent this condition.
Electricians Also Provide Data, Telephone & AV Cabling Services
Most homeowners aren’t aware that licensed electricians also provide structured cabling aside from traditional electrical services. Many are skilled and experienced in data, telephone and AV (audiovisual) cabling. When these services are needed, an experienced electrician will often be the best choice for your home. We’ll cover the main aspects of installing residential cabling.

Electric Wall Heaters for Year Round Comfort – Part 1
Wall heaters are most commonly found inside studio, bachelor apartments and compact offices. They are suitable for small spaces because they provide adequate heating while conserving floor space. Coming into common use more than five decades ago, the following will cover the reasons why wall heaters are still viable for small living areas today.
Does Your Home Still Have a Fuse Box?
If you do, it might be time for a change. Even though it is outdated technology, a properly functional fuse box can be as safe as a circuit breaker panel. The electrical system of many older homes may still use fuses, but all new homes have circuit breakers installed.
