"Tim Gephart has been my "go to" electrician since I first hired him through Home Advisor over a year ago. A true professional and gentleman. He has done many projects for me including new outlets, installing lighting and replacing an entire electrical panel. Each and every project was done with care and the highest level of skill. He is an expert electrician."

"I recently had my aging electrical panel upgraded from 100 amps to 200 amps by Electrical Bzzz and its owner, Robert Davtyan, along with his crew. They did a fantastic job! Additionally, Robert helped resolve an issue in my home caused by an electrical circuit break that affected half of the house. His years of experience enabled him to diagnose and fix the problem quickly at no extra charge. One of the key points I want to emphasize is that Robert Davtyan is an honest and hard-working individual. He truly goes above and beyond, even when dealing with strict city ordinances like those enforced in Camarillo. He also matched the stucco paint perfectly, which was a bonus. The inspection passed with flying colors. I highly recommend Electrical Bzzz to anyone in need of an electrical panel upgrade. Their prices are the most competitive in Ventura County! Below are before and after pictures."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, a hot or overheating outlet is a fire hazard and can cause a fire. An outlet becoming hot indicates an electrical problem, such as an overloaded circuit, loose connections, or a faulty component. The heat from these issues can ignite nearby flammable materials like curtains or furniture. If you notice an outlet is hot to the touch, turn off the power at the circuit breaker, unplug any connected devices, and consult a qualified electrician. If a fire does start, use a Class C fire extinguisher or baking soda to suppress it, or evacuate immediately and call the fire department.

If wiring in a relatively modern home is damaged due to sudden events like a fire, a tree falling into the house, or a flood, then homeowners insurance is very likely to cover the cost of replacing the wire.

However, if it’s determined that wiring failed or started the fire because of age, neglect, or not meeting current electrical standards, then insurance won’t be covering any replacement. Also, insurance policies may charge more for particularly old kinds of wiring like aluminum wiring or deny applications altogether. 

If a light switch is off, it’s very unlikely to cause a fire. For a fire to start, the switch has to be on, activating an electrical current, and the wiring must be faulty. However, the malfunctioning light switch could cause an intermittent current to move across the electrical wire. This issue could become a fire hazard with another device connected to the wire. You should replace the bad light switch as soon as you notice it or call an electrician.

The standard voltage for United States power outlets isn’t shared around the world, and neither is the shape of the power connector. This is why you need travel adapters when spending time abroad. Where the United States typically uses 110/120V outlets, outlets in Europe typically use 220/240V. Power outlets can vary in other ways around the world, too. Not everyone uses the 60Hz frequency, for example, and not everyone even uses AC power in outlets. Always do your research when traveling to see what you need.

The American Wire Gauge system calculates wire size diameters using the complicated formula D(AWG)=.005·92((36-AWG)/39) inch. A simpler rule of thumb is that every six-gauge decrease doubles the wire diameter, and every three-gauge decrease doubles the wire’s cross-sectional area. On the other hand, wavenumbers are typically measured in reciprocal meters (1/m or m−1) or reciprocal centimeters (1/cm or cm−1).
