Cliff Proctor has been wiring homes and businesses around Wilmington since the early 1980s. Panel upgrades, generators, EV chargers, rewiring, storm damage. Everything between the meter and the last outlet. When you call, you get the licensed electrician who actually does the work, not a dispatcher.
If your panel is full, tripping breakers, or undersized for what you're running, it's time for an upgrade. 100 to 400 amps.
Learn More →Federal Pacific, Zinsco, Challenger. Breakers that don't trip under fault. If you have one, it needs to go.
Learn More →Old knob-and-tube, cloth wire, or aluminum branch circuits get pulled out and replaced with new Romex, every circuit labeled at the panel.
Learn More →Homes from 1965–1973 with aluminum branch wiring. Connections loosen over time. We pigtail or rewire the circuits.
Learn More →Inspector flagged issues on a sale? Unpermitted work from a previous owner? We fix it to code and get it signed off.
Learn More →Generac, Kohler, and Briggs & Stratton installs with automatic transfer switch, concrete pad, and gas line coordination. When the power goes out, it comes back in seconds.
Learn More →Already own a generator? We wire the transfer switch or interlock kit so it connects safely to your main panel.
Learn More →Inlet box, breaker interlock, labeled circuits. Plug in and power what matters without running cords through windows.
Learn More →Whole-house surge protectors at the panel. One lightning strike through Duke Energy's lines can take out every appliance in the house.
Learn More →Tesla Wall Connector, ChargePoint, JuiceBox, or Wallbox. Each one needs a dedicated 240V circuit from your panel. Cliff runs the circuit and you charge at home overnight.
Learn More →The federal 30C tax credit still covers 30% of installation costs. See what the full job actually runs before you commit.
Learn More →Lutron Caséta, smart dimmers, neutral wire installs. The wiring behind the smart stuff.
Learn More →Samsung Frame TVs, flush mounts, hidden in-wall wiring with recessed outlets behind the screen.
Learn More →Ring, Nest, Arlo, and commercial systems, all hardwired with weatherproof boxes rated for salt air, so no dead batteries or WiFi drops.
Learn More →Speaker wiring, surround sound, projector drops, dedicated circuits. The electrical work your AV installer won't do.
Learn More →Hardwired ethernet, structured cabling, home office setups. WiFi is convenient. Cat6 is reliable.
Learn More →Downed service entrance, water-damaged panels, post-storm inspections. We've been through every hurricane since Hugo.
Learn More →Get your generator tested, surge protection checked, and outdoor disconnects verified before hurricane season starts. Do it in May, not in the cone.
Learn More →Retail build-outs, office wiring, property management calls. Licensed for commercial work in New Hanover County.
Learn More →Three-phase dishwashers, hood systems, walk-in coolers, and the dedicated circuits commercial kitchens need. Hobart certified.
Learn More →Tenant build-outs, new construction, retail electrical. From empty shell to opening day.
Learn More →Three-phase power, heavy equipment hookups, emergency warning systems. Work most electricians won't touch.
Learn More →Call (910) 431-8227 or text a photo of whatever's going on. Cliff picks up the phone himself. There's no answering service.
Cliff comes out and looks at the job, then gives you a flat-rate price. If you want to move forward, great. If not, no pressure and no bill for the visit.
Cliff does the work himself. If the job needs a permit, he's already pulled it. When it's done, he walks you through everything and makes sure you're good.
Proctor Electric is based out of Wilmington and works throughout New Hanover and Pender counties. In Wilmington proper, we handle panel upgrades in Landfall, rewiring in Forest Hills and Pine Valley, EV charger installs near College Acres, and troubleshooting calls from downtown to the Mayfaire area.
Beach communities keep us busy year-round. Wrightsville Beach and Figure Eight Island homes deal with salt air corrosion on panels and outdoor connections. Carolina Beach and Kure Beach properties need storm damage repair after every major hurricane season.
On the mainland side, Leland and Hampstead have a lot of new construction and generator installations. Monkey Junction and Myrtle Grove are mostly established neighborhoods with older wiring that needs attention. Ogden and Porters Neck see a mix of everything from smart home installs, dedicated circuits, and inspection corrections on resale homes.
