"We contacted Gridwise because we were concerned about a few electrical issues and wanted them thoroughly investigated. We were quite anxious going into it. Enrique was incredibly straightforward and informative. He walked us through his findings, explaining what could wait and what needed immediate attention. He avoided any fear tactics or pressure to do everything at once. The estimate was easy to understand, and they provided us with a few options for moving forward. On the day of the work, they arrived promptly and were respectful throughout our home. They kept reminding us to tidy up and explained their actions as they went. Once the work was complete, they walked me through the changes made and advised me on what to monitor in the future."

"James is an awesome owner and wonderful to work with! He sent Danny and another person to complete our lighting job. They did A LOT of work installing recessed lighting in 3 rooms and installed under cabinet lighting in our kitchen. They finished all in 1 day and we were very pleased with the work they did! We will definitely be hiring Bay Area Electric again and I will definitely ask for Danny!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Type S or T fuses don’t require any special removal or installation tools. However, replacing a cartridge-style fuse is easier and safer when using a fuse-puller tool. All of these tools should be available anywhere you can buy fuses.

Yes. Even when it’s not in use, an outlet is still connected to wiring, and if the wiring is faulty or wet, a fire can occur. Broken outlets can also cause fires, for the same reasons; in fact, most broken outlets are broken due to damaged or worn-out wiring. It’s worth replacing outlets that are old or damaged with the help of an electrician.

If you are having trouble determining the right breaker size for your water heater, it is a great idea to contact an electrician near you to help. They can help you determine the best option for your home and install the circuit breaker for you, ensuring that you have all the proper permits and that your circuit breaker won’t overload, which could lead to fire and other damage.

Most 200-amp panels have 40 to 42 slots, which can accommodate 40-42 single-pole breakers or 20 double-pole breakers. Some panels can accept even more circuits through the use of tandem breakers. The exact number of breakers allowed is determined by the panel manufacturer's rating, which you can find on the panel itself. It is important to avoid using all breakers at the same time; as a general rule, you should not use more than 160 amps of power at once to prevent overloading your 200-amp system. For specific guidance, it's best to check your panel's rating or consult with a qualified electrician.

Local building codes typically require conduit around exterior wiring. Conduit protects the wire from moisture, extreme temperatures, sun exposure, and harsh weather conditions to prolong its lifespan. When a wire is worn out, it can be dangerous as the risk of electric shock or fire increases.
