ARC Electrical Services is based in Milpitas and works throughout the city’s established neighborhoods, newer townhome communities, multifamily properties, and light commercial districts. That local base matters when a customer needs responsive communication, permit coordination, or a contractor who understands the mix of properties found between the foothills, I-880 corridor, and North San Jose.
We provide troubleshooting, panel work, EV charger installation, rewiring, lighting, backup power, and commercial electrical services with clear options and accountable workmanship.
⦁ Panel and capacity planning for EVs and electrification
⦁ Troubleshooting intermittent power, breaker trips, outlets, and lighting
⦁ EV charging in single-family, townhome, and multifamily settings
⦁ New dedicated circuits for appliances, HVAC, workshops, and remodels
⦁ Commercial repairs, lighting, tenant improvements, and system upgrades
The City of Milpitas Office of Building Safety provides plan review, permitting, and inspections. Certain online permit options are available, while larger residential, multifamily, and commercial work may require plans or additional review.
Inspections can be scheduled through the City’s online system or inspection request line. For service changes, meter work, and added load, PG&E requirements may apply. Milpitas participates in Silicon Valley Clean Energy for electric generation while PG&E continues to deliver power and maintain the distribution system.
Milpitas also promotes home electrification programs and may offer local incentives in addition to regional programs. Rebate amounts and eligibility must be verified before they are quoted to a customer.
