Jim Eberle the president and owner of Current Electrical Contractors, Inc. has been doing new construction since 1976. He started as an apprentice doing new homes in Longmont Colorado and then gravitated to commercial and industrial projects. Sometime around 1991 our electricians near Winnetka did our first condo remodel at 1040 N. Lake Shore Drive. This connected Current Electrical Contractors with a whole new network of architects, general contractors and designers. Ever since then we have specialized in high-end custom homes and condominiums on the north shore and the north side of the Chicago area.
Our electricians near Highland Park have numerous customers that schedule quarterly or biannual visits to their house or condominium to ensure their electrical systems are working properly. Most of the customers that benefit from electrical maintenance have large homes with a variety of different light fixtures inside and outside their home. As you might be able to imagine, these customers are often not super handy and are uncomfortable with climbing ladders or doing the actual mechanical work of disassembling and changing the light bulbs.
Electrical upgrades are needed for a variety of reasons and often necessary to maintain safety in your home. Contact Current Electrical Contractors for all your electrical upgrade needs. In the case of the addition there is a load calculation that needs to be done based on the square footage of the home, all the fixed in place appliances and the larger of the heating or cooling loads. A common upgrade on a house is from 200 to 400 amps. Years ago, there were very few homes with 400 amp services.

We at Richardson Seating use Current Electric as our electrician for the last 4 years. They have been so reliable since day one. We operate out of a 100 year building and with that comes a lot of issues. Current Electric has been able to problem solve issues and able to offer solutions with keeping cost down.
Professional, prompt, and easy to work with. I highly recommend them.
The chandelier looks great but the installer took 4 different trips in a matter of 2 hours to "get parts" and then after he was done had to go back to the van to write up the paper work which he then charged me another 15 minutes to make it a nice even 2.30 - This was an hour and a half job at the most. And while it looks great I question why he needed to sit in his van for 5-10 minute intervals. One time it was "the plate wont cover the hole" how about bringing all your parts up the first time? Also cut hole to wide and there is a nice nick in the ceiling and I was told "you can probably patch that" Very disappointed and you guys were highly recommended.
