Your Questions, Our Solutions: Andover Electrical FAQs
Randy’s was founded by Randy Smith, a Master Electrician who believed in combining technical expertise with old-fashioned integrity. Since 2002, we’ve carried on that legacy of safety and service throughout the North Metro.
Yes, in Andover, most electrical work—including new circuits, panel upgrades, and some smaller installations—requires a permit through the State of Minnesota. While simple maintenance like changing a lightbulb does not require any work, any work that involves “opening” the electrical system must be permitted and inspected to ensure it meets the 2023 National Electrical Code (NEC).
We prioritize prompt service and strive to schedule appointments within a timeframe that works for you.
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency services with a friendly, prompt response to address urgent electrical issues and minimize disruption.
If you see sparks, smell burning plastic, or hear buzzing from your panel, safely turn off the main breaker if possible and call us immediately. We offer 24/7 emergency electrical services to resolve urgent issues promptly.
We accept cash, checks, and all major credit cards for your convenience.
Absolutely! We stand behind the quality of our workmanship and offer a comprehensive warranty on all services.

Safety is our top priority. Our electricians adhere to strict industry standards and participate in ongoing training to comply with national and local electrical codes.
Our electricians are equipped to address a wide range of electrical repairs, from troubleshooting faulty outlets and switches to fixing lighting fixtures and ceiling fans.
Common indicators include flickering lights, frequently tripped circuits, and warm outlets. If you experience any of these, contact a qualified electrician promptly.
We recommend a comprehensive electrical inspection every few years and an annual professional panel inspection to identify potential hazards and maintain safety.
Yes, we have the expertise to safely and efficiently rewire older homes, replacing outdated or damaged wiring to meet current safety standards.
Absolutely! We install dedicated circuits and wiring for new appliances such as induction cooktops, ensuring safe and code-compliant operation.
If your Andover home was built between the mid-1960s and early 1970s, it may have aluminum wiring. Signs include outlets that feel warm to the touch, flickering lights, or a faint smell of burning plastic. Because aluminum expands and contracts more than copper, it can lead to loose connections. We provide professional remediation to make these systems safe.
This common sign indicates a “large load” stressing an aging system. It usually means your home’s main service doesn’t have the capacity to handle the initial surge of power these appliances need. Frequent flickering suggests your electrical panel may require an upgrade to 200-amp service.
Yes, we highly recommend installing surge protectors to safeguard your electronics and GFCI outlets in high-moisture areas like bathrooms and kitchens for added safety.
Both prevent hazards but serve different roles. GFCIs (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupters) protect people from electric shock and are required in “wet” areas like kitchens and bathrooms. AFCIs (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupters) protect your home from fires by detecting dangerous “arcing” (sparking) behind walls caused by damaged wires. Modern Andover codes often require both for maximum safety.
Yes, we can strategically add outlets and light switches throughout your home to improve convenience and functionality, including smart switches and USB outlets.
We can design and install a variety of lighting solutions, including recessed lighting, pendant lights, and dimmers, to create the perfect ambiance for your home.
Absolutely. Power strips offer “point-of-use” protection for individual devices, while a whole-home surge protector installed at your main panel guards your entire electrical system from voltage spikes caused by storms or large appliances cycling on and off.
Only if the existing electrical box is “fan-rated.” Standard light fixture boxes aren’t designed to support the weight and vibration of a fan. Our electricians can replace your old box with a heavy-duty, braced fan box to ensure safety and quiet operation.
