Frequently Asked Questions
Clear, direct answers to common inquiries about panel upgrades, EV
chargers, generators, and ESA code compliance in Ontario.
Are you licensed by the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA) in Ontario?
Yes, 6ix Electric Company Ltd is a fully certified ECRA/ESA Licensed Electrical Contractor in Ontario. Hiring an ECRA/ESA licensed contractor guarantees that work is performed by qualified electricians, permits are pulled appropriately, and an official Certificate of Inspection is issued.
How do I know if my home needs an electrical panel upgrade?
Signs include: flickering lights when heavy appliances start, constantly tripping breakers, an older 100A or fuse-based service, or planning to install an EV charger, heat pump, hot tub, or air conditioner. Upgrading to a 200A service ensures sufficient capacity and avoids electrical fire hazards.
What warranty do you provide on electrical work?
We stand firmly behind our craftsmanship. 6ix Electric provides a minimum 1-Year Worry-Free Warranty covering both parts and labour on every installation and repair project.
Do you offer emergency electrical services in Milton and the GTA?
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency electrical response for hazardous situations such as burning smells from panels, sudden loss of power, sparking outlets, or storm-damaged service masts. Call us immediately at (289) 270-0700.
What is included in a home EV charger installation?
Our turnkey EV charger service includes an electrical load calculation to verify panel capacity, running a dedicated 240-volt circuit from your breaker panel to your garage or exterior wall, mounting your Level 2 charger (Tesla, Grizzl-E, ChargePoint, Flo, etc.), complete testing, and securing ESA inspection approval.
How long does a typical residential generator or panel upgrade take?
Most standard 100A to 200A electrical panel upgrades are completed in a single working day (typically 6 to 8 hours), during which power is disconnected in the morning and safely restored by afternoon with utility inspection. Standby generator installations typically take 1 to 2 days including gas/electrical coordination.
