Recently A Plus Electric and E-Connect Technologies teamed up to install Lutron switches in a customer’s home. This allowed the home owner to switch lights and appliances on and off through Alexa, wall switches, or smartphone. With a system like this, it’s also possible to schedule on and off times.

This customer wanted control of the Christmas tree without having to crawl behind it and to easily control lighting outside and inside the home.

In this video, Travis, from A Plus Electric and E-Connect Technologies, gives a 60-second demonstration of how it works.

]]> Michigan is being hit with howling winds, accentuated by strong gusts.  Trees can be stressed under these conditions–limbs or the whole tree may come down taking power lines with them.

If you need help, A Plus Electric is standing by.

The first concern is your safety and those around you. Consumers Energy says “stay at least 25 feet away from a downed wire.” They add “steer clear of water, trees, debris and fences” nearby and contact them as soon as possible (800-477-5050). Carl Evanson, A Plus Electric’s master electrician, adds another note of caution “a downed wire can electrify areas much farther away than you’d guess as electricity disburses in surprising ways. The results can be tragic.”

Consumers Energy is responsible to repair a downed wire up to the point where it touches your house. If any part of the lead-in to your house is damaged, you will need to call an electrician. That includes the mast.
