Abe Electric has been a trusted name in electrical services in the Norfolk, Nebraska area since 1978. For over four decades, we've been committed to providing reliable, high-quality electrical solutions for homes, businesses, and farms. Our dedication to excellence and customer satisfaction has been the cornerstone of our success, and we're proud to continue that tradition today.

Abe Electric's current owner, Jesse Schmitt, has a deep connection to both the community and the electrical trade. Driven by a desire to serve, Jesse joined the Nebraska National Guard at the age of 17 in 2006. After completing Advanced Individual Training (AIT), Jesse earned the 12R Interior Electrician MOS, gaining valuable hands-on experience in the field. This commitment to service led to a deployment to Afghanistan in 2010 in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, where Jesse's skills and dedication were further honed under challenging circumstances.

Jesse's passion for electrical work extended beyond military service. Concurrent with his military commitment, Jesse pursued formal education in electrical construction and control at Northeast Community College, solidifying a strong foundation in electrical theory and practice. This combination of practical experience and academic knowledge forms the bedrock of Abe Electric's expertise.

Jesse's connection with Abe Electric began in 2009, bringing a fresh perspective and a commitment to innovation to the company. His dedication and leadership were quickly recognized, culminating in the opportunity to become a part owner of Abe Electric in 2014. This partnership allowed Jesse to contribute even more significantly to the company's growth and success. In 2025, Jesse took full ownership of Abe Electric, solidifying a commitment to carrying the torch of quality and service well into the future.

Beyond his professional life, Jesse is a devoted family man, happily married with two beautiful daughters. He understands the importance of a safe and reliable home environment and brings that same level of care and attention to every electrical project Abe Electric undertakes.
