What was
in the wall.

Cloth-covered conductors and pull-out fuse blocks, in a house people were living in. Out came the fuse box; in went a load centre with the neutrals and grounds combed to each side, every terminal torqued to spec, and the circuits labelled so the next person does not have to guess.

Drag, or use the arrow keys, to compare

The antique screw-in-fuse main box that was removed, its cloth-covered conductors and pull-out fuse blocks exposed in the wall.

Before After

It’s in
the name.

Their logo is a cord that runs out of the wordmark, loops back under it, and plugs in as the E of ELECTRIC. It is the whole trade in one drawing: take power from where it is, carry it to where you need it, and make the connection properly.

Brass blades, a moulded body, a copper ferrule where the jacket ends. Nothing exotic. Everything done right.

Power Cords Electric

The Power Cords Electric plug modelled as a physical object: a dark moulded body with two brass blades and a copper ferrule where the cord enters.

The season
doesn’t ask.

June through November, and this coast already knows what a week without power costs — the freezer, the well pump, the air conditioning, the CPAP. A standby generator watches the utility feed and takes over on its own, usually inside a minute, whether or not anyone is home.

If a portable is what fits the budget, it still needs doing properly: a weatherproof 30 or 50 amp inlet and a listed interlock, so you can back-feed the panel without ever putting power on a line somebody is working on. Both jobs are ours.

Their own
job photos.

Not stock. Every photograph below is a job Power Cords Electric posted themselves, and the captions in italics are theirs word for word.

  • An underwater snook light glowing brilliant green beneath a boat on a lift at night, the surrounding water almost black.
    “Check out this snook light we installed!”
  • A two-storey foyer with a layered stepped tray ceiling, lit recessed cans, and a rectangular crystal-drop chandelier hanging on a long cable in front of tall windows.
    A statement fixture is a rigging problem before it is an electrical one.
  • The inside of a newly installed load centre with breakers set and the neutrals and grounds combed neatly to each side; "Torque to spec" is pencilled on the drywall beside it.
    Torque to spec. Every terminal, every time.
  • A wooden dock and aluminium boat lift on a mirror-flat creek under a blue sky, lift motors, control box and conduit all in view.
    Lift motors, controls and a GFCI feed built to live in salt air.
  • A covered lanai seen down the length of its stained tongue-and-groove wood ceiling, with recessed cans lit and a dark wood-blade fan.
    “Back porch all ready for summer nights with these new can lights & fan.”
  • A freshly cut trench curving across a sunny backyard toward a paver pool patio, with bundles of grey PVC conduit staged on the lawn and a mini excavator among live oaks beyond.
    “Another dock we finished up, we had to dig 200' from the house out to the dock.”
  • The inside of an open-sided pole barn at golden hour: rust-brown steel trusses, two large ceiling fans, high-bay light strips, and school buses visible through the open end.
    “Keeping the crew and the melons cool with these huge fans.”
  • A bright remodelled kitchen with white shaker cabinets, quartz counters, a long island, a ceiling fan and a full grid of recessed cans.
    The payoff shot. Every can on a layout, not a guess.
  • A stacked-stone community entrance monument washed by new landscape uplighting at night, with palms silhouetted behind it.
    “Needing a sign lit up? We got you covered!”

Philip & Taylor
Cords.

Power Cords Electric is a husband and wife. They introduced the company themselves, in a single post, and it is still the clearest thing anyone could write about it:

“Hey everyone! We wanted to take a minute to introduce ourselves… My name is Philip Cords and this is my wife Taylor and we are the owners of Power Cords Electric. We’ve been married for 3 years now and have a sweet baby girl, Oaklynn Jean, who is our pride and joy.” Philip Cords, introducing the company

Everything on this site is their work, photographed by them, described in their words where they wrote them down. The licence number is real, it is theirs, and it is searchable on the state register.
