"I purchased a Generac 13kw generator from Stallings Electric and installed. Everything from start to finish was excellent communication, install, and customer walk through when completed. I had other bids from other local contractors and their pricing was also the best."

"Everything went fine with the exception of the fan install which was pretty tricky - we have some funky wiring done in the 80s by the old homeowner. Otherwise, great - Marcus got out to our house quickly and there were A LOT of lights/switches/exhaust fans to install which were taken care of quickly and at a reasonable price."

"Brandon (Sunrise Electrical) responded next day to my email. Visited job day after, explained replacement and upgrade to main (burned up) panel, current grounding requirements, , and permit process. Submitted bid next day. This type of work may be twice as expensive as youâ re thinking, but you probably need licensed, bonded , etc. with good equipment and crew. We were confident they would do the job as described. They worked hard to prioritize our repairs even though the our county was in the midst of disastrous storms and there were several emergencies they were dealing with concurrently. Their work included exterior stucco around new panel and crawling under house to attach the new ground wire. They compted us a fix of an adjacent gate latch and repair of a suspect circuit in the garage. Will hire again for repairs or upgrades."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The most likely cause of accidentally flashing lights is that a regular bulb has been replaced with a flash bulb by accident. If that’s not the case, you should look for a bulb on the strand that is not quite seated properly and will lose its connection when it’s touched or moved.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

No, you don’t need to hire an electrician to install your garage door opener. Garage door professionals have the skills and expertise to install the wiring necessary to connect the opener to your home’s wiring system. When hiring a local garage door professional to install your system, make sure the opener task is included in the list of provided services.

You can test an electric fence with a multimeter, but you’ll need to set the multimeter to the correct voltage measurement—such as alternative current (AC) or direct current (DC) and range—depending on your fence. You can find the voltage type and range in the fence’s user manual.

There is no blanket figure for a residential home’s electrical load, since load varies by the size of the home, how many appliances are used, and the efficiency of their electrical systems. Typically, however, it’s safe to assume 40 to 60 amps is the average electrical load of a residential home.
