What should the receptionist ask an electrical caller?

First, whether there are sparks, smoke, heat or a burning smell. Then the address, home or business, what's affected, panel brand and age if the caller knows, whether the utility has an outage in the area, and the best time to visit. For EV chargers, the vehicle and whether the charger is already bought.

What does it sound like on the phone?

"Good afternoon. This is Ben from Bright Line Electric. How can I help?"

  • "Do you install Level 2 chargers?"

    Answered from your services list, then Leap takes the quote details.

  • "Do you pull permits?"

    Read from your approved permit text.

  • "My outlet is sparking."

    If there's a danger to life, Leap tells the caller to call emergency services now and ends the call.

Which electrical calls should reach a person?

Loss of power to medical equipment, a commercial client with an outage, and complaints on finished work. Leap marks those urgent and notifies your team during the call. You can turn on live transfer during office hours; Leap rings you, says who is calling and why, and you press 1.

Leap doesn't give wiring advice. It reads only what you approve, such as "check whether the breaker has tripped."

When do electricians get calls?

During the workday, when you're on site. BLS notes electrician schedules may include evenings and weekends and overtime is common (bls.gov/ooh/construction-and-extraction/electricians.htm). Storms bring outage and generator calls in bunches.

Ring-first mode lets the office or your cell answer first and Leap take what's missed. For nights, use your carrier's dial code or phone system's call scheduling to forward all calls.
