"I recently hired Herzog Brothers Electric to install a Level 2 EV charger (NEMA 14-50 outlet) at my home, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the entire experience. From the initial quote to the final installation, everything was handled with professionalism, transparency, and expert-level workmanship. Dustin and his team were prompt, courteous, and took the time to walk me through the entire process. They didn’t cut corners—every detail from conduit placement to material quality was top-tier. The wiring was clean, secure, and built to code. The team even gave thoughtful suggestions for future upgrades and made sure I was fully set up and operational before leaving. In a market where good electricians can be hard to find, Herzog Brothers Electric delivered excellence. If you’re considering any kind of EV installation or electrical work, I highly recommend them. Reliable. Honest. Professional. I’ll definitely be using them again. — Julius M., Fresno, CA"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

How many string lights can be on one outlet depends on a number of varying factors, including the total wattage of your circuit, the type of lights, the energy needs of the lights, and cord specifications. It’s better to play it safe here to protect your circuit, so figure out the max wattage of your circuit, compare that to the lights, and move on from there. Generally speaking, LED string lights require less energy than incandescent bulbs, translating to a higher number of lights per circuit. 

That depends on your setup. If a circuit breaker already has GFCI protection, then everything connected to that specific circuit is being monitored. You don’t need additional GFCI outlets on that breaker.

However, if the breaker is not GFCI, then you should have GFCI receptacles for at-risk outlets nearby water sources, because they are not receiving protection. Breakers in a breaker box can vary between GFCI and non-GFCI. Look for GFCI labels on the breaker or try to find the breaker model number to look it up if you aren’t sure.

Grounding an electrical outlet can take as little as 30 minutes if you only need to replace the outlet or around two hours if you need to add a ground wire. However, more extensive electrical work will take longer, such as hiring an electrician to ground multiple outlets during the same service.

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.

A GFCI outlet is easy to identify. It features two buttons on the face that read “TEST” and “RESET.” Sometimes, the “RESET” button is red. These are positioned in the center of the two three-prong plug-in slots you see on a regular outlet. Some also feature a green light to indicate when the outlet is working, changing to red when there is a problem.
