"I had a great experience with Precision Home Services. They came out quickly and fixed a faulty outlet efficiently and professionally. The technician was knowledgeable, thorough, and took the time to explain what the issue was and how he resolved it, which I really appreciated. The work was completed neatly, and everything is now working perfectly. Pricing was fair for the quality of service provided, and the overall experience was smooth from start to finish. I would definitely recommend Precision Home Services to anyone needing reliable electrical work and will be using them again in the future."

"I called APS about getting a standby generator for my home, and the whole experience was great from the start. They took the time to explain everything in a way that actually made sense and walked me through what to expect instead of just trying to sell me something. What really stood out to me was how thorough they were. They noticed my gas meter was undersized for what I already had and helped get that addressed with the utility company before it became a bigger issue. That?s the kind of thing most people probably wouldn?t even know to ask about. Their pricing was competitive, communication was easy, and everyone I dealt with was professional and knowledgeable. The 10-year warranty being included was a nice bonus too. Overall, I felt like they genuinely cared about doing the job right. I?d absolutely use APS again and would recommend them to anyone looking for electrical work or a home generator."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Wire color codes vary depending on the region. For instance, the United Kingdom has updated its wiring codes to match Europe's color system. The United States wiring color code is different, as is Australia's. Because the color code system isn’t universal, it’s essential to hire an experienced electrician to perform any electrical work to ensure it is done correctly.

The color of your cable will help you to identify its function. In the U.S., the National Electrical Code (NEC) designates the color code for electrical cables. “Hot” cables are black, red, and blue. In cases of higher voltage lines, orange might also be used to indicate a hot cable. White or gray indicates a neutral, and green or green with a yellow stripe indicates a ground.

Well pumps need power to run, so they can’t function without electricity. If your power shuts off, there can sometimes be enough pressure in the water tank to allow for a lucky flush or a bit of tap water—but this won’t last long. It’s a good idea to have a backup generator or an alternative power source like solar if you’re worried about losing power.

It is possible to change a light fixture by only flipping the light switch, but it’s better to be safe than sorry. Exercising extra caution when working with electricity is always important. Take the extra few minutes at your electrical box to cut the power at the circuit breaker. Once you’ve flipped the circuit breaker and the light switch, use a voltage tester to confirm the power has been turned off.

Moving an electrical outlet typically costs between $25 and $300. The final price depends on several factors, including the type of outlet, the condition of your existing wiring, and the state of your walls. For example, working on exposed walls without drywall is easier and less expensive for an electrician. However, if the walls are finished, the cost may increase to account for necessary repairs afterward. It's recommended to consult a professional for a precise quote based on your specific situation.
