Nielsen Electric, the eldest contractor in Alameda, was founded as a one-man operation by Tom Nielsen during the depths of the Depression in 1932. In the 1950s, Tom's son, Eric A. Nielsen, and his wife, Diana Traini Nielsen, assumed ownership of the business. Nielsen Electric is a fully licensed, bonded, and insured premier hometown electrical contractor serving the Bay Area.

"Power problem in one of the units, some outlets and lights quit working. Found that power only coming out of one side of main breaker, pulled it and found connections corroded and burned...Nielsen Electric was the only same day response of all the electricians that I called.
Nielsen Electric saved the day!"

"Great. They responded immediately to my call and request for an estimate. Their quote was quite reasonable, so I scheduled the appointment. The electrician was friendly, informative and efficient. He installed a weather protected outlet which has proven very useful for outdoor use, most frequently for use by my neighbor to vacuum and work on his car! A good experience from start to finish."

"I used Nielsen Electric back in 2014 at my personal residence and they were great in doing the job on short notice as well as price.
Now, at a different location as President of a 64 unit Condo HOA here in Alameda, we are working on installing an EV Charging station. I called Erik at Nielsen and he made an appointment for the next day and he knew exactly how to quote the job."
