Michael showed up on time and diagnosed the problem immediately. Got my solar panels up and running in no time. Will definitely use Michael again for various electrical jobs around the house as needed.

I had an issue with my Solar Panels as one was no longer producing energy. Micheal diagnosed the problem contacted the vendor to get the warranty parts and then did the install. Very easy for us and reasonably priced. He will be my primary technician going forward for all solar panel maintenance services.

As the lead up question asks, what did I like working with CWE, l wish that I could pick all 5 items. Mike is a great guy to work with. I discovered that I had a problem with my solar system and contacted Mike. In short order, he determined what failed in my system and ordered a replacement inverter. The next day he removed and replaced the inverter and spent time answering all of my questions. If you are having problems with your solar system, call Mike at Cap West Electric.

All 3 of my solar inverters had error messages and were not producing any energy. The error code on one of them suggested I needed new ones. I called Michael Capitani at Cap. West Electric, and had him do an inspection and test of my entire system. And was able to locate the problem, which was a burned fuse in the main disconnect switch. Once he fixed it, the system ran perfectly and saved me about $700 bucks on my SDGE bill. I will need a new system in a few years and I will definitely have Cap West be involved with it.
