"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had an outstanding experience with Wilsons Electric. Their team was professional, punctual, and completed all of the work with exceptional quality and attention to detail. They installed a dedicated outlet for our carpet cutting machine, new light fixtures in our electrical room, and an additional power outlet in our lobby. From start to finish, communication was excellent, the work area was kept clean, and everything was completed safely and efficiently. It's refreshing to work with a contractor that takes pride in their craftsmanship and delivers exactly what they promise. I highly recommend Wilsons Electric for any commercial or residential electrical needs. We'll definitely be using them again for future projects."

"The work was done professionally and done on schedule. Raymond the manager gave me all the information I needed before the start of the project . The communication was timely and valuable throughout the project. The main reason I hired Excellent Electric is because Raymond also made recommendations that help to reduce the cost of materials and labor. I interviewed three other companies and all gave me competitive prices, but the recommendations Raymond gave me, set Excellent Electric above the three other companies I interviewed. I will hire Excellent Electric again and recommend this company."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You can use both LED and incandescent bulbs in an incandescent fixture as long as the bulb base is the right size. Never use a higher wattage than what the fixture recommends. However, it’s usually safe when transitioning to LED bulbs because they typically have a lower wattage than their incandescent counterparts.

Unless you have prior electrical experience, it’s best to hire a professional to install your new thermostat for you. Improper installation can damage wiring, lead to a blown fuse, and more.

Yes, electricians must be licensed, certified, and in most cases, insured. Licensing requirements vary by state and local municipality, but most U.S. municipalities require electricians to hold an electrical contractor’s license. It's always a good practice to confirm requirements with your local municipality. Even if licensing is not required in your area, hiring a licensed and experienced electrician often leads to a better end result.

A license is a legal requirement to operate a business and is necessary for pulling project permits. Certifications, on the other hand, are typically voluntary and demonstrate a certain level of expertise. In some cases, a certified electrician may send an apprentice or journeyman to perform the work, but they must operate under a primary electrician who holds the proper license.

Before hiring, you should verify the electrician's license, insurance coverage, and any third-party certifications. You can use Angi’s contractor licensing search to confirm a pro's license status. Additionally, businesses with the “Angi Approved” badge on our platform meet strict criteria, including having the required state and local licenses, passing a background check, and maintaining a high average rating.

No, because amps and volts measure very different things. However, you can use basic equations to find amps or volts by using data about one of the measurements to calculate the other.

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.
