About N Electric | Licensed Electrician in Lake County, IL
A Residential Electrician Focused on the Needs of Lake County Homeowners
When the need for an electrician arises, you aren't just looking for someone to pull wire. You’re looking for a professional you can trust with your family’s safety and your property’s most critical infrastructure.
N Electric is a family-owned, residential-focused electrical contractor that has been serving Lake County and the North Shore since 2002.
For more than 24 years, homeowners have trusted Scott Nytko and his team for practical electrical work, clear communication, and dependable service without the corporate runaround.
Based in Winthrop Harbor, IL, we focus exclusively on the projects homeowners actually need:
electrical panel upgrades,
EV charger installation, remodel wiring, and safety-focused repairs.
Built on Experience Since 2002
Not every electrical contractor is built the same way. Some chase large commercial bids or high-volume new construction turnover.
N Electric takes a different approach. Our business is built entirely around residential electrical services and homeowner priorities.
Experience matters in residential work. Every home is different, and older systems in the North Shore often come with "surprises" that require more than a one-size-fits-all solution.
Over the decades, we have worked on a wide range of properties—from vintage homes that need careful troubleshooting to modern builds requiring high-capacity upgrades for today’s electrical demands.
This local experience helps us identify issues efficiently and make practical recommendations that support the long-term needs of your home.

"I was in the dark when my garage light suddenly stopped working. N Electric responded to my call immediate and within minutes there was an electrician at my door. They did a great job and installed two fixtures within an hour. I would not hesistate to use them again."

"Outstanding work by N Electric! Scott and Dave went above and beyond… literally... from our attic to crawl space and all points in between to solve electrical issues related to a kitchen remodel. They also completed multiple “extras” such as hanging light fixtures all over the house, adding an outlet in the garage for the repurposed refrigerator, etc. They were professional, efficient, and just plain nice. Excellent experience. Highly recommend!!"
