"Juan came out and gave us a price to replace bathroom exhaust fans and light fixtures in both of our bathrooms. He told us how long the work would take and that was how long it took. He worked nonstop for four hours and charged us just what he told us he would. His work is excellent and precise. We feel very fortunate that our search for an electrician started with him. We would call Juan first when we have need again for any electrical work."

"Outstanding Electrical Work – Five Stars All the Way! Erik and his team at I Know Electric did an absolutely outstanding job completely wiring my 3,400-square-foot home. From start to finish, the quality of workmanship, attention to detail, and professionalism were exceptional. A project of this size requires tremendous knowledge, careful planning, and precision, and Eric delivered on every level. His commitment to doing things right, maintaining high standards, and ensuring everything was completed safely and correctly truly impressed me. As a homeowner, it's refreshing to work with someone who takes such pride in his craft and genuinely cares about the finished product. I couldn't be happier with the results and would highly recommend I Know Electric to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, dependable, and first-class electrician. Five stars without hesitation!"

"Jeff and his crew did a great job upgrading the electrical panels at my 6-unit apartment building. The whole experience from start to finish has been exceptional and would highly recommend Cooper Electric for any of your electrical needs. Jeff's bid for the work was very competitive compared to the other bids I received. Jeff coordinated with SMUD and the City of Sacramento Inspection/Permit Department to complete the electrical panel upgrades, power shutdown and final inspection in just one day. Jeff was personally involved throughout the entire project and kept me informed on all ongoing activities."

Customers say: Quality work

"Barry was outstanding from start to finish. He was the first to provide an estimate, the most reasonably priced, and inspired the most confidence of all the contractor estimators I talked to. Not only that, but was completely accommodating and receptive to all my special requests and upgrades. Most of all, he is a super nice guy and does all the work himself. You don't have to pay the overhead of a big operation or worry who will do the work - your money goes straight to the man and the materials. The job was started on time and finished in 5 hours for a Nema 14-50 garage outlet (a specialty of his) with 6 AWG wire and a Hubbel industrial outlet. Best of all, Barry knows all the codes and submits all the paperwork to the city/county for permitted installations. Highly recommend!"

"Wise Electric replaced my old, unsafe electric breaker panel with a new, safe panel and breakers. He worked very fast and efficiently, so the power to our house was only off for 3 hours. He did not sacrifice workmanship for speed, so the new panel worked 100% when he switched it on and passed inspection the first time. The cost was very reasonable."

"We hired Julian to do the electrical in our garage. We asked for 4 outlets and he put in an extra one in a spot he thought would be needed. He was on time, finished the project within a week, cleaned up after himself and was overall a pleasure to work with. I would absolutely hire again."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Outdoor outlets should be at least 15-amp, but preferably 20-amp. The exact rating will depend on the electrical load of the devices that will be plugged into the outlet and the capacity of the circuit. It's important not to overload the circuit, which can cause safety hazards such as tripped breakers or electrical fires. In general, a circuit rated for at least 20 amps is recommended for outdoor outlets, while each outlet should be rated for at least 15 amps.

Typically, when a 3-way switch only works when one switch is on, this is one of the most telltale indicators that the switch has gone bad (although this could also be the result of faulty or loose wiring). To diagnose the issue, toggle each switch until the light comes on. Once it’s on, toggle each switch separately again; the switch that doesn’t turn the light off is the bad switch. 

You can check if an electrician is licensed in California by using the online check a license tool offered by the Department of Consumer Affairs Contractors State License Board. You have the option of searching by the license number, the electrical contractor’s name, or the name of the business to determine the electrician’s status.

Aluminum wiring can pose a fire risk as it can overheat, expand, and contract, leading to failing splices and loose connections. If your home has aluminum wiring, it requires careful maintenance and potential safety upgrades. The first step is to hire a licensed electrician to conduct a thorough inspection.

A complete replacement with copper wire is the safest option but can be very expensive and is not always necessary. Other safety measures and upgrades include:

  • Copper Pigtailing: A more budget-friendly option where a short section of copper wire is added to each end of the aluminum wire. This is only appropriate for certain homes.

  • Aluminum-Compatible Outlets: Installing outlets specifically designed for use with aluminum wiring.

  • Anti-Oxidant Paste: Applying this paste to connections to prevent oxidation.

Consulting with a qualified electrician is essential to assess the condition of your wiring and determine the most appropriate updates to meet current safety standards.

If you've ever tried to run your dishwasher while drying your hair, you’ll understand why dedicated circuits are essential for preventing blown fuses. Appliances that require more electricity than the circuit can handle could blow fuses, trip breakers, overheat, and risk an electrical fire. 

Having a dedicated circuit ensures that your appliance gets the current it needs without overloading the other circuits in your home.
