We're currently in the middle of some home renovations and they've been willing and able to work with our erratic schedule. Honest, dependable, and great at what they do. Can't recommend them high enough!"

"I hired Ken Johnson (Johnson Electric) to correct a number of electrical problems which were identified in a pre-sale home inspection. Among these was a replacement of an unsafe old circuit panel, all new power outlets, conduits and receptacles. Ken provided a quote which was very reasonable. Actual work was performed by two technicians. They arrived on time, completed the job the same day, and left the site in pristine conditioner. We were very satisfied with their work and based on my experience I am happy to recommend Johnson Electric for quality electrical projects in your residence."

"I would definitely recommend All Services Electrical. They are very knowledgeable and thorough in their work. Nothing got overlooked! They were very professional and clean. They installed some fans, some light fixtures and fixed sone electrical outlets that were not working properly. I am very happy with the work they did. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would give them more. Excellent job!!"

"We hired Instinct Electric (Alonzo) to install a new 220V line for our Heat Pump Water Heater. He delivered outstanding work at a very fair price. He even made an unscheduled stop after hours to complete the electrical connection after the water heater was installed. Excellent communication throughout the process. Installation (including electrical) passed city inspection first time. Thank you, Alonzo!"

"I recently had an electrician install an EV plug in my garage for my Tesla Model Y, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. He was the first to contact me and even came out right away to assess the job, which gave me confidence from the start. Others contacted me, but none of them took the time to come and evaluate everything in person. The electrician arrived on time for the installation, explained everything clearly, and made sure the work was done up to code. The job was clean and neatly finished, no messy wires or unnecessary holes. He also tested the outlet with me to confirm proper charging before leaving. My Tesla charges perfectly now, and I have peace of mind knowing it was done safely and correctly. Pricing was fair for the quality of work, and he was very knowledgeable about EV charging requirements. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to add an EV plug at home or any Electrical projects you have."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

For a 200-amp underground service, you need a minimum of #2/0 American Wire Gauge (AWG) copper or #4/0 AWG aluminum or copper-clad wire. Don’t forget that, at minimum, you’ll need to use a 1 1/2-inch schedule 40 or 80 PVC conduit to successfully run a 200-amp underground service.

If you find the power cables for your appliances are too short, there are ways to extend them for the cost of just the extra wiring you need. Simply cut and strip your wires, solder them together, and cover them using heat shrink tubing. Not everyone has a soldering tool on hand, so if you’re looking to extend in a pinch, an extension cord, power bar, or surge protector can do the job just fine.

Before hiring an electrician, check out the contractor’s official website, read reviews, and look them up on your local Department of Labor’s website. If you’re hiring for a complex job, pay special attention to their level of expertise. Also, call up pros directly to ask about their insurance status, specifically liability insurance, and request customer references.

Single-pole switches are simple circuits designed for lower voltages. As such, they don’t require the complex wiring of switches that need to supply power to larger devices and appliances. This is why single-pole switches commonly go in bathrooms, closets, and other small rooms that power a low-watt light fixture. One wire creates the circuit from the power supply, the other goes to the fixture, and the final wire provides safety mechanisms through grounding.

Wiring a light switch wrong can cause a fire if the incorrect wiring causes arcing, meaning the current jumps uncontrolled from one conductor to another. Loose wires or worn wires that are not repaired or replaced can cause arcing. If you’re not 100% sure you can do the job safely, don’t attempt to wire a light switch on your own.
