"Gridwise installed a hardwired Level 2 charger for us and it was refreshingly easy. We did a quick video inspection, got a clear estimate, and then they showed up on schedule and knocked it out. The wiring is clean, no mess left behind, and they took a minute to explain the configuration/settings so it made sense. After dealing with contractors who disappear or complicate everything, this felt efficient and professional. Would use them again."

"Steve and his crew of electricians did a fabulous job. They basically replaced the entire house’s electrical, all new switches and outlets in addition to all the new light fixtures in every room. They showed up on time, did what they said they would and addressed every issue encountered in the rehab. In addition, Steve was great helping me decide what to put where. An overall excellent experience. I would HIGHLY recommend Warner Electric for any electric job."

"I could not recommend Lightning Electric more! When the owner came out for quote, he was informed, shared info I otherwise wouldn't have known. Was creative in finding solutions to the problems I was having and was pleasant in general. His team spent the entire day at our house working to address our problems. I was impressed with their professionalism and thorough approach to our issues. Even though there was a few over sites and mistakes, their response in addressing them was immediate."

"Chris did a wonderful job in my project. He installed light fixtures and replaced electrical switches for me. He went over and above, cleaning up a messy wiring situation that he discovered. Chris was professional, had great attention detail and extremely conscious of the work surroundings. He was very kind and considerate. I highly recommend Chris for anyone who needs electrical work."

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

When installing an outdoor outlet, it's important to proceed with caution. Unless you have the necessary training and licensure, it's not recommended to attempt this DIY. First, choose a suitable location. Make sure that the area can accommodate the outlet without overloading the circuit. You'll also need to ensure that your project complies with building codes. Next, turn off the power to the circuit, then install and wire the outlet according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once the outlet is in place, test it. Lastly, be sure to use a cover that will protect it from moisture and other weather-related damage.

The light that your ceiling light gives off will largely depend on the type of light bulb that’s installed in it. If you’re looking to brighten a dark room, LED bulbs are the way to go. LED bulbs will emit the most light while also using less energy than standard bulbs. They can last up to 50,000 hours and will need to be replaced much less often than standard bulbs.

Choosing between 12- or 14-gauge wire for your house depends on the electrical requirements of the circuit. A 12-gauge wire is thicker and can handle more power, making it better suited for devices such as kitchen appliances, air conditioning units, or electric heaters.

A 14-gauge wire is thinner and can handle less electrical current than a 12-gauge wire. It's ideal for circuits with lower power requirements, such as lighting or general-purpose outlets in bedrooms or living rooms.

Christmas lights typically do not need to be grounded like electrical circuits in your home do. However, it's crucial to use outdoor outlets equipped with ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) for added safety. GFCIs can help protect against electrical shocks and are recommended for outdoor electrical connections when using Christmas lights.

Basic smart light switches are available for as little as $20. If you can install them yourself, it’s a home upgrade that won’t break the bank. Many homeowners view them as a worthwhile investment for the additional convenience and security they can offer. However, they are a little more tricky to install than standard light switches, so if you don’t have the electrical knowledge to do a DIY job, unless you need a lighting upgrade, remember these are a nice-to-have rather than a necessary purchase.
