ASL
Your local electrician in Aliso Viejo
Aliso Viejo is one of Orange County's younger cities. The first homes were sold in March 1982, and the city incorporated on July 1, 2001, becoming the county's 34th city. Today about 52,000 people live here, many in condos and townhomes, alongside single-family homes and the Pacific Park business district.
Homes from the 1980s and 1990s generally have more capacity than older homes elsewhere in the county, but their original lighting, panels and devices are now thirty to forty years old. Lighting upgrades and EV charging are the most common projects we see here, and in attached homes they often involve association rules.

Common electrical issues in Aliso Viejo
In Aliso Viejo, homeowners most often ask us to replace dated fixtures with LED recessed lighting, add ceiling fans, install EV chargers and fix outlets and switches that have worn out. In condos and townhomes, EV charging can be more complex, because the panel may be in one place and the parking space in another, and association approval may be needed.

From our Google reviews
“We had issues with our patio lights not turning on. They came out and explained the problem and proposed solutions. This is our third time using ASL electric and will continue using them for any of our electrical issues/projects.”
“OUTSTANDING! Best service ever. From the minute you call ASL Electric you are greeted with a very knowledgeable and helpful team member. I setup an appointment with ASL Electric and Cory arrived on time and completed the job in 15 minutes! ASL Electric is the only company I will call for all of my Electric services from now on.”
EV charging in Aliso Viejo condos and townhomes
If your parking space is in a shared garage or carport, adding a charger usually requires association approval and a plan for how the charger will be metered or billed. California law generally supports owners' requests to install EV charging in common interest developments, subject to reasonable rules. We assess the electrical options, from your own panel or a shared source, and provide the details your association needs to review the request.
Lighting upgrades for 1980s and 1990s homes
Homes of this era often have builder fixtures, fluorescent kitchen lights and few recessed lights. Replacing them with LED recessed lighting, new pendants and under-cabinet lighting is one of the most noticeable upgrades you can make, and it lowers energy use. We plan the layout room by room, add dimmers or smart controls, and handle any association rules for exterior fixtures.
