About NVPowerNow

NVPowerNow operates a Nevada-focused referral directory for emergency electrician services. We do not perform electrical work, do not employ electricians, and do not hold any electrical contractor licenses. We connect Nevada homeowners and property managers with independent licensed electricians through a pay-per-call affiliate network for 24/7 panel emergencies, AC circuit failures, FPE/Zinsco replacements, monsoon surge damage, and service upgrades.

How we make money

When a call results in a booked job, the provider's network pays NVPowerNow a referral fee. You pay the electrician directly. The fee does not increase your quoted price.

How Nevada electrician licensing works

Electrical contractors in Nevada must be licensed by the Nevada State Contractors Board (NSCB) under NRS Chapter 624. Electrical contractors must hold a C-2 (electrical) license classification. The NSCB oversees contractor licensing statewide — verify any electrician's license at nvcontractorsboard.com before allowing any work to begin. Nevada homeowners may perform their own electrical work on owner-occupied residences, but cannot hire unlicensed contractors for any electrical work. Nevada building code requires permits for panel replacements and service upgrades, administered through local building departments (Clark County, City of Las Vegas, City of Henderson, Washoe County, etc.). Our network partners are verified for NSCB C-2 license status, general liability insurance ($1M+), and workers' compensation coverage.
