Van Nuys Electrician & Smart Home Integration
24/7 service calls, panel upgrades, Savant and Control4 smart home control, Wi-Fi and cameras.
Electrical, Smart Home and Network Work in Van Nuys
Van Nuys sits in the middle of the Valley, a short drive north of our Sherman Oaks office. Its housing runs from 1910s Craftsman homes near the original town center to post-war tract houses and blocks of apartments along Sherman Way and Vanowen. We handle the electrical work all of that needs (24/7 service calls, panel upgrades, rewiring) and the technology side too: Savant and Control4 control, Lutron lighting, UniFi Wi-Fi and security cameras.
We work for homeowners, landlords and property managers across 91401, 91405, 91406 and 91411. For a breaker that won't reset or a camera system for a rental building, call (818) 245-5201.

200A & 400A Panel Upgrades
We replace Zinsco, Federal Pacific and undersized 60–100A panels with 200A or 400A service, pull the permit and coordinate the utility shutoff and inspection. Common reasons: an insurer flagged the panel, a remodel, new AC, or adding an EV charger.

What We See in Van Nuys Homes
Van Nuys has some of the oldest homes in the Valley and a large stock of post-war houses and apartments, and the wiring usually tells you which era you're in.
- Early homes in the Van Nuys HPOZVan Nuys has the Valley's first Historic Preservation Overlay Zone, with homes going back to 1911 in Craftsman and Colonial Revival styles. Interior rewiring is straightforward; exterior changes like a relocated meter may need HPOZ review, and we plan around that.
- Post-war tract housesOnce GM opened its Van Nuys assembly plant in 1947, tract homes went up fast across the area. Most were built with 60–100A service and only a few circuits per room, which is why today's AC, kitchens and home offices so often call for a 200A upgrade.
- Apartments and rental propertyVan Nuys has a large rental housing stock. For owners and managers we replace aging unit panels and breakers, add GFCI and AFCI protection, repair common-area lighting, and install UniFi cameras and Wi-Fi for parking areas and entries.
- Valley heatSummer afternoons in Van Nuys regularly pass 100 degrees. An older service running central AC plus window units can overheat connections and trip breakers; we test the load and fix the weak point, from a single breaker to the whole service.
- Upgrades for single-family homesPlenty of Van Nuys work isn't a repair. Homeowners add recessed and Lutron lighting, Savant or Control4 control, whole-home audio, and UniFi Protect cameras that record locally with no monthly fee.
- City of LA permits on flat lotsVan Nuys is in the City of Los Angeles on LADWP power, and the flats here aren't in a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. We pull the LADBS permit, schedule the inspection and coordinate the LADWP cut-over on every service upgrade.

Van Nuys FAQs
Can I get an emergency electrician in Van Nuys at night?
Yes. We answer (818) 245-5201 24/7 for outages, breakers that trip or won't reset, burning smells and sparking outlets. Our office is in Sherman Oaks, just south of Van Nuys, so we can usually be there the same day.
How do I know if my Van Nuys house needs a 200A panel?
Common signs are original 60–100A service, a Zinsco or Federal Pacific panel, breakers that trip when the AC comes on, warm breakers, or no space for new circuits. We'll check it and tell you plainly; if it needs replacing we handle the permit, LADWP and inspection.
Do you work for landlords and property managers?
Yes. We respond to tenant electrical problems, replace unit panels and breakers, upgrade common-area and parking lighting, and install camera and Wi-Fi systems for entries and garages. We coordinate access with tenants.
My home is in the Van Nuys HPOZ. Can you still upgrade the service?
Yes. Interior rewiring and panel work generally don't affect the historic exterior. If the meter or service mast has to move, that change may need HPOZ review, so we keep visible changes small and tell you up front if a review is likely.
Are you licensed and insured to work in Van Nuys?
Yes. Homi Home Automation holds California C-10 electrical license #1147130 and is bonded and insured. One licensed team does the electrical work and the smart home, network and camera installs, and we pull LADBS permits for work that requires them.
