"I am updating my rating for CA Electrical (Unfortunately Angi will not allow me to edit, so I am posting this as a new review). After posting my original review I was contacted by CA Electrical. The supervisor assured me that my experience was not their normal practice and that they normally made sure to call if there was a change of plans. I felt that they were earnest in trying to make things right, so I agreed to give them another chance. I ultimately decided to select them for my project to replace sub panel and install outlets. The crew was excellent and professional. They showed up on time, were professional and friendly, took extra care to ensure work spaces were left clean. Their workmanship was excellent and they did a great job of cleaning up some messy electrical wiring that had been there before. As an electrical engineer, I also appreciated the crews knowledge of code and ability to explain the technical side of the installation. I would use them again."

"On Saturday, July 20th I logged into the website for Wire Tech Electric and requested someone come out to my house to give me a quote to add a Level 2 electric vehicle charging station into my garage for my new Chevy Bolt. I received an email back from Olvin Rivera later that evening and we arranged to meet on Wednesday afternoon (July 24th) for the free quote for the installation. Olvin texted me prior to the scheduled time to let me know he was on his way. I already knew that my existing 220-amp breaker panel was full and after he arrived we discussed adding a subpanel into the garage to contain the 40-amp breaker for the 240-VAC level 2 charging station. Across the board, Olvinâ s prices for the work and materials was better than the prices listed for Amazonâ s professional installation for any of their level 2 chargers. He emailed me a copy of the quote and I decided to go with his team. This morning Olvin texted me prior to his scheduled time to inform me that he was heading over to do the install. He and a helper came out to the house and extended the main breaker panel into the garage and added the subpanel, 6-gauge wire (rather than the smaller 8-gauge wire that was minimally required) and terminated everything to a NEMA 14-30 outlet. Everything was professionally installed, the breakers were tested and frankly it really looked like it belonged there. Ten minutes after they left UPS delivered the TurboDX charger that I had ordered. Unfortunately, the TurboDX charger required direct connection to the power source rather than through the NEMA plug. Luckily, Olvin Rivera from Wire Tech Electric was able to return where upon he removed the NEMA plug and modified the wall connection to allow the power to be connected directly to the charger. The TurboDX charger was a problem from the get-go as although the charger came in a nice aluminum casing, the casing needed to be drilled out to allow the electrical feed to enter from the back into the housing. Olvin had the necessary tools to get the casing drilled out and inserted a plastic knockout bushing to protect the wiring through the hole. Then he leveled and attached the charger to the wall and connected the power directly to the charger. He also called the tech support hotline for the TurboDX charger to ensure everything had been properly connected (the installation instructions for the TurboDX charger were a little too basic for what we were doing.) Everything worked and the vehicle charged the last 60 miles until full charge in just under 2 hours. I really liked the way Wire Tech Electric kept in contact with me throughout the process from answering my request for a quote, then sending me the full quote after we discussed the work to be done, the text messages prior to arrival to let me know to expect them and their promptness to arrive within the designated appointment time. I found Olvin and his helper (whose name I have forgotten) to be very professional and courteous and the work was first rate. I will definitely keep them in mind for any future electrical contract work."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Dehumidifiers typically use 300 to 700 watts of electricity per hour, whereas portable dehumidifiers use about 40 watts per hour. The exact amount of electricity your dehumidifier will generate depends on its capacity and energy efficiency. Generally, higher-capacity dehumidifiers generate more electricity than lower-capacity units, but they also usually have better energy efficiency over the long run.

They can vary—a lot. For example, while the EU continues to move toward broader standardization, many different types of outlets still exist from country to country. Some local standards cared about polarization, and some didn’t. It’s similar to other countries around the world.

Generally, you’re less likely to find polarized outlets outside North America. However, alternative plugs and outlets often incorporate precautions so that accidentally touching live prongs on a plug is hard or impossible. You may also find interesting regulations overseas that limit the use of outlets in bathrooms or near sinks to decrease the chance of shock.

How often you’ll replace your electric meter depends on what type of meter you have in your home. Induction meters can last around 10 years, while static meters will typically last around 20. If you’re unsure which kind of meter you have, a call to your electric company can help ease your mind.

Even if you don’t have children living in your home, The National Fire Prevention Association still recommends installing tamper-resistant outlets when you’re replacing your existing outlets. 

Not only is your home likely to change hands at some point, but you may have young children over as guests. Making the switch even if you don’t currently have children living with you at the moment will help protect any future pint-sized visitors to your home.

Pendant lights are very versatile, and you can almost always find one with your preferred style that accepts your preferred bulb. Today, many fixtures use LED bulbs, though it’s still completely possible to find one that uses halogen, fluorescent, or even old-school incandescent bulbs. The manual that comes with your light should tell what types of bulbs you can use with it.
