"The problem turned out to be a burned out small electric door switch. I believe the price was way too expensive for the service performed and the price of the door switch. What more can I say? It got done."

"We called Jason upon recommendation from our plumber, Cliff. We also called one other highly rated electrician who declined to help us since we had reached out to someone else for a quote. Jason called us back within 24 hours, scheduled a trip to our house the next week, and completed the work the week after. When he first called, we explained we would like to install a 50 Amp box for our travel trailer and attach it to the side of our shed. Jason was very knowledgeable about the wiring needed and explained the process in a professional and friendly manner. We told him we were considering digging the 80 foot trench ourselves and he said that was fine. When we mentioned that to the other electrician who returned our call a couple of days later, he was not happy with us trenching, telling us he had all the equipment to do it and didnâ t have time for us any way. Needless to say, we decided to let Jason and his assistant, Dean, do the trenching. We are so glad we did! - prompt, professional, gets the job done! A few hours in the morning, and it was done! Jason even fixed a couple of outlets in the house we were concerned about and added a GIF outlet near the new breaker box and 50 amp box at no additional charge. I went out and asked questions which Jason readily answered encouraging me to ask any question I had. There is no doubt we will have Jason come out again for any of our future electrical needs including wiring our 12x12 shed."
Black is the standard color for hot wires, which transfer electricity to your outlets and switches. Red wires are also hot wires. White (and sometimes gray) wires are considered neutral, delivering power back to the panel. Finally, green wires, which are sometimes bare copper, are ground wires, used to ground an electrical circuit and prevent electrocution.
If one plug in your outlet works but the other doesn't, it could be due to a few reasons. The outlet might have a loose or damaged internal connection on the non-working side. Another possibility is that the outlet is a split receptacle, with one half controlled by a wall switch that might be turned off. Additionally, debris or damage inside the non-working plug could prevent a proper connection. If you can't identify the issue, remember to prioritize safety. Replace the outlet or consult a professional electrician to ensure safety and proper functionality.
Basic smart light switches are available for as little as $20. If you can install them yourself, it’s a home upgrade that won’t break the bank. Many homeowners view them as a worthwhile investment for the additional convenience and security they can offer. However, they are a little more tricky to install than standard light switches, so if you don’t have the electrical knowledge to do a DIY job, unless you need a lighting upgrade, remember these are a nice-to-have rather than a necessary purchase.
Any light bulbs made from toxic materials, such as CFL bulbs and fluorescent light tubes, should not be thrown in the garbage. These bulbs need to be sent to hazardous waste collection sites run by your municipality or sent through a specialized mail-back recycling program. Earth911 allows you to search and find a recycling location near you.
Yes, a hot or overheating outlet is a fire hazard and can cause a fire. An outlet becoming hot indicates an electrical problem, such as an overloaded circuit, loose connections, or a faulty component. The heat from these issues can ignite nearby flammable materials like curtains or furniture. If you notice an outlet is hot to the touch, turn off the power at the circuit breaker, unplug any connected devices, and consult a qualified electrician. If a fire does start, use a Class C fire extinguisher or baking soda to suppress it, or evacuate immediately and call the fire department.
