“SOLID” was the word Ken used to describe himself.  He is a man of character who always finishes what he starts and keeps his word.  A true humanitarian and dedicated businessman, Lebersfeld accepts this award with humble gratitude.

He continues to work six days a week, providing a “solid” foundation for his employees, as well as his younger siblings and cousins who work at Capitol Lighting.  They know–if there is a problem, whether personal or business–Ken would be there wholeheartedly and in full force.  He does nothing half-way.  And, perhaps that is why he is at the helm and has become the strong-hold of a family lighting business that has strived to be the best for over 90 years.

The second the lights go out, there tends to be a moment of panic in the house. Although it isn’t dangerous, if it is in the evening or dark outside, total darkness can be a little unnerving, especially when there are children around. Everything pretty much comes to a grinding halt and there is typically complete silence. The soothing sounds like the hum of the refrigerator or the television being on are zapped away. Although it may be a welcome break from a fast paced world, life must carry on and you probably have some things to get done that require light or electricity. Your Glendale electrician has a solution to the aftermath of a power outage. At The Electric Connection, you will find electricians who are qualified to install standby generators.

A standby generator will make sure you are never left sitting in complete darkness for more than a few seconds. When an electrician installs the generator, a switch will be installed that automatically transfers the home’s power needs to the generator. This switch to backup power takes seconds. You will not have to do anything and won’t need to worry about fumbling around outside in inclement weather trying to get the generator started or hooked up. Everything is taken care of by your electrician. Glendale homeowners can rest easy knowing the lights and pertinent appliance will be back up and running in no time.

Standby generators range in size depending on how big your home is and how much power you need. Some folks opt to do without things like the air conditioner and dryer during a power outage in order to conserve power and direct it to other things like lights, refrigerators and entertainment equipment. It is totally up to you. If you have decided to add a backup generator, give The Electric Connection a call today and schedule your appointment.
