"B&C Electric did a great job. Robert Burns came to my house after another electrician from another company installed a Tesla charger. For the next 4 weeks we had trouble with different areas of our house losing power. I called this initial electrician back to fix the problem. He came and did some work but the power outages continued. That's when I said enough is enough and called Robert at B&C electric. He came and did a thorough evaluation of my sub panel. He found that the breaker switch installed by the other company was not only cheap but not wired correctly. Robert installed a new breaker switch and I have not had any trouble since. Robert explained everything to me and showed me what he was doing. The best electrician I have used, hands down. I will use him again!"

"I needed 2 ceiling fans installed in areas without existing lighting or wiring. I searched Home Advisor and found JC Electric. Joe (owner) had great communication, sent calendar invites for the appointments and sent a confirmation text the morning of the appt. Nariel, the technician, was outstanding! Polite, professional, respectful, and explained the process. More importantly, he tolerated my dog Zoe who feels everyone is there to her and she wanted to be his helper. Haha Joe texted me when the job was complete to see how everything went. I also immediately received an email with my receipt for payment. I will definitely be using JC Electric for future electrical needs."

"Matt was absolutely wonderful to work with. He is a very honest guy who does not try to push extras. He was very willing to work with my budget. He kept me very well informed about the progress on my project and met with me at my convenience. He came to my house after dark to walk the property with me, ensuring that the lighting in the yard was positioned correctly and how I wanted it to be. Matt is the first really honest and ethical electrician that I have hired and I am grateful to have found Roper Electrics. I will definitely be using him for any electrical needs in the future. He is knowledgeable and able to explain things well in terms that a non-electrician can understand at a reasonable level of complexity.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The key difference between a circuit breaker versus a surge protector is that circuit breakers shield your entire electrical system from overcurrents and faults, while surge protectors defend your electronic devices against voltage surges and spikes. A circuit breaker interrupts the flow of electricity in a circuit when it detects an overload or short circuit, protecting the wiring from damage and preventing fires. In contrast, a surge protector shields electronic devices from voltage spikes, such as those caused by lightning strikes or power surges, preventing damage to the device’s inner mechanics.

The average lifespan of a home electrical system is anywhere from 30 to 70 years or more, depending on the type of system you have. Modern electrical wiring, like aluminum or copper, can last 50 to 70 years while older types may need to be replaced sooner. Additionally, circuit breakers tend to last anywhere from 30 to 40 years, while electrical outlets need to be replaced every 10 to 25 years. 

You may not always need to hire a local electrician to install a doorbell camera. Wireless doorbell cameras, for instance, are simple enough for the average homeowner to install. They easily attach to your threshold and run on batteries, so no wiring is necessary.

However, wired doorbells with cameras likely require electrical work that should only be attempted by licensed electricians. You’ll need to call a pro if you’re working with a wired doorbell camera.

No, it doesn’t matter which of the two wires goes on each of the two switch terminals. Just be sure to put the ground wire in the correct terminal. The ground wire is either green, bare copper, or green with a yellow stripe. The other wires are hot wires and are typically black. They can be used interchangeably.

Grounding is an essential part of installing an electric fence. Without grounding, the electrical circuit will be incomplete. That means the fence won’t work and will fail at delivering shocks upon impact. Even grounding the fence improperly can cause faulty shocks, if any. To ground the fence, you will need to use ground rods, ideally made from copper or galvanized metal, that are at least 4 feet high, for best results.
