"Needed an outside outlet created and indoor/outdoor ceiling fans installed. I thought that I needed a GFIC breaker line from the electrical panel for the outside outlet. John determined that wasn't necessary. Verified with the water filtration company's technical support. Confirmed that the wiring could be pulled off one of the bedroom outlets. John saved me around $450 by using his expertice (compared with another elec.company's quote). Outside outlet and fans work perfectly. I'll be using this company for all my future electrical jobs."

"I was looking to get our switches changed out in our bathroom and after further looking into it, for me to change it myself, i saw no way around nothing less than tearing the wall out to replace the switch. I was not comfortable in doing so, then I got on Angis list and the JB Miller Electric Company reached out, Justin was very knowledgeable about the electrical process, and he didn't even have to tear the wall out after all. He was very efficient and his customer service skills were excellent. He kept in touch with me from the time I answered his call, until he arrived to do the job. Which was the very next day. I am overly impressed with how well he completed the whole job, within 30 minutes and his rates were very reasonable. I will be calling JB Miller Electric from now on to complete any electrical work i may need done."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

A GFCI outlet is a type of electrical outlet that monitors the electricity flowing through the circuit and shuts off power immediately when it detects a loss or acceleration of current. They are particularly important in areas that may come in contact with water, which is why they're most common in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and garages.

No, you should always use proper electrical wire caps to safely cap off electrical wires. Electrical tape isn’t as durable as electrical caps and can deteriorate and separate over time, exposing the live wires. The only way to use electrical tape for this project is to wrap it around the caps themselves to reinforce them and create an even stronger connection, preventing an electrical emergency.

The American Wire Gauge system calculates wire size diameters using the complicated formula D(AWG)=.005·92((36-AWG)/39) inch. A simpler rule of thumb is that every six-gauge decrease doubles the wire diameter, and every three-gauge decrease doubles the wire’s cross-sectional area. On the other hand, wavenumbers are typically measured in reciprocal meters (1/m or m−1) or reciprocal centimeters (1/cm or cm−1).

A standard three-prong electrical outlet typically lasts for about 15 years with normal use and should be replaced accordingly. GFCI outlets may have a longer lifespan of 15 to 25 years. While some outlets can last longer if used infrequently, they can also fail prematurely. Reasons for early failure include poor wiring, an overloaded circuit, improper grounding or installation, or loose plugs. Signs that an outlet is failing include flickering lights, overheating, a discolored or melted faceplate, plugs that fall out easily, or frequently tripping circuit breakers. It is essential to address faulty outlets promptly to avoid safety hazards, especially in homes older than 15 years.

You can twist the wires before using a wire nut, but it’s not necessary. Electricians often twist wires before using a wire nut, which can help secure the connection and enhance electrical contact between wires. You can decide whether or not to twist the wires beforehand, or consult a local electrician if you need  professional opinion.
