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."

"Outstanding experience with Fox Electric! Toby was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain all of my options for a main panel upgrade. He provided several solutions at different price points, allowing me to choose what worked best for my needs and budget. The quality of work was excellent, communication was great, and the entire process was smooth from start to finish. It's clear that Toby takes pride in his work and genuinely cares about his customers. I highly recommend Fox Electric to anyone in need of electrical services and will absolutely be calling them again for future projects."

"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!"

"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

While you might not need to put lights and outlets on separate circuits, some local codes may require that you use separate circuits. Installing a separate circuit helps prevent total darkness in your home when your receptacle outlets take on too much power and blow a fuse or trip the breaker. It also costs less and is easier to simply install a new circuit.

A sudden tiny spark is normal when first plugging in an appliance. However, if your plug regularly sparks, has other concerning problems, or worries you for any reason, you should call a licensed electrician to have it inspected and ensure that it is not at risk of causing an electrical fire.

Yes, you can connect two extra outlets (or more) to one outlet if the total load on the circuit allows for it. If you have a 15-amp circuit, electrical code allows up to eight outlets or light switches. But if you’re dealing with outlets in the kitchen and bathroom, you may not be able to have as many. Kitchen and bathroom appliances often need higher amperage. You can also change a single outlet to a double outlet by cutting a larger hole in the drywall and replacing the outlet with a quad receptacle.

A gas stove doesn't always need a dedicated circuit. Unlike an electric range, which uses 240 volts and requires a 240-volt receptacle, a gas stove only uses 120 volts. In some cases, your electrician will need to replace the existing two-pole circuit breaker with a single-pole circuit breaker as well as swap out the existing 240-volt receptacle with a 120-volt replacement.

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.
