"Adam and Raul came to my home to install a new electrical panel. They arrived on time. They came to my door and told me what to expect. APS turned off my power shortly tnereafter. They went rignt to work and completed the install mich sooner than anticipated. They came in and tested all the fixtures and plugs and repaired several items that the previous electician did not complete. I could not be more satisfied in the results. I 100% would recommend Colonial Electric for your electrical needs. Adam & Raul were fantastic to work with and top notch professionals."

"We are exceptionally pleased with Bolt Electric's work (Matt) installing a ceiling fan on our vaulted ceiling. The fan was assembled, mounted (including light kit) in less than an hour and boxes etc were all hauled away and the work area completely clean. The cost was very reasonable. I would absolutely have Bolt out to our house for any future electrical work."

"Very professional and high quality results. This project was done right. Electrical systems in mobile homes are notorious for causing issues. Add to that, a 50 year old mobile home, and there are many reasons to be concerned. I had estimates from several different providers but Static Sun Electric and Solar were head and shoulders above all the rest in diagnosing what needed to be done to make our home safe. I also needed extra work done to support a computer room, and some special needs outlets for a Convection Oven and other appliances. They also installed a 230V box for my mini-split. Everything I wanted was completed quickly and very professionally. I have total confidence in the work performed. These will be the people I call if/when I ever need electrical work. 5 STARS Plus. Brenton and Jason did the work, and Julie, in the main office, coordinated everything. I can't express enough how pleased I am with this project. They may not be the lowest bidder on a project, but you get what you pay for, and what value do you put on the peace of mind knowing it was done right? Highly recommend Static Sun Electric and Solar."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Compared to amps, volts, and watts, ohms are a different kind of measurement, though also very common. Ohms show the resistance of materials like wiring: How much they impede the flow of electrons. The reason household wiring is usually copper or aluminum is that these materials are affordable and also have lower ohms, which means low resistance/high conductivity.

Upgrading a two-prong outlet to a three-prong outlet typically costs between $20 and $50 per outlet if the electrical box is already grounded. However, the cost can increase significantly if the system is not grounded, as this may require grounding the box or upgrading your electrical panel. Electricians generally charge between $50 and $100 per hour for labor, and the total cost for a more complex installation could range from $130 to $300.

Though they may seem similar at a quick glance, outdoor electrical outlets are different from indoor electrical outlets in that they have extra safety precautions to prevent electrical hazards. These include GFCIs, which some indoor outlets have, and a watertight cover that allows you to use electricity from the outlet even on a rainy day.

You can use a double-pole switch for a regular light fixture, but it's unnecessary and won’t be the most efficient choice. A single-pole switch works perfectly for standard lights. Double-pole handle high-power appliances that require both hot wires to be disconnected. Using a single-pole switch for regular lights is more cost-effective, simpler, and more common in residential settings.

The number of outlets and lights you can safely run on a single circuit depends on the circuit's amperage and local electrical codes. A general rule is to allow one outlet or light fixture per 1.5 amps, keeping the total load under 80% of the circuit breaker's capacity. For example, a 15-amp circuit can typically support up to eight outlets or lights, while a 20-amp circuit can accommodate up to ten. Always consider the combined power usage of all connected devices and fixtures to prevent overloading. For specific guidelines and to ensure safety, it is best to consult local electrical codes or a licensed electrician.
