"The owner responded quickly and came to our home for a free estimate within hours. He recommended installing a new outlet to prevent electrical issues down the road. The job was completed within 72hrs (due to the weekend) and we were very happy with the work. I would highly recommend and will use them again for future needs."

"Luis was very knowledgable and professional. He was able to figure out the electrical issue we were having and quickly resolved it. We had received 2 other estimates and Luminous' fee was far more reasonable. We will definitely use them in the future!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Reliable Electric did a great job installing the plug and new GFCI breaker for my EV car charger according to the national codes. They arrived on time and worked efficiently to complete the work. The pricing was fair, and there were no surprise costs. Overall, I highly recommend Reliable Electric for any electrical jobs and would hire them again. They speak English, Punjabi and Hindi!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Each meter should have a serial number printed or engraved on the face of the meter. Make sure the serial number of the meter you are reading matches your account with the power company. If you live in an apartment complex, the meters are likely located all together. Yours should be labeled according to your apartment unit.

In most cases, line wires are located at the bottom of a panel or device, while load wires are located at the top. Line wires are generally black, while load wires are typically red or black. To tell for sure, you can use a multimeter or volt pen to test the wire. A live or line wire will always carry a charge, while a load wire will only carry a charge when it’s in use.

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.

A multimeter does not measure frequency, charge, inductance, and other electrical quantities. Instead, it measures voltage (AC and DC), current, and resistance.

Some portable cooktops are compatible with standard 120-volt outlets, but most induction (and electric) ranges and stoves need a dedicated 220- or 240-volt circuit and 40 to 50 amps to work. If you are replacing an old electric range with an induction one, you likely already have the proper outlet, but it’s worth checking with a local appliance installation company.
