"George Leach is top of the line contractor/electrician and I give my highest recommendation. I contracted George to install an EV charger for my new Cadillac EV, and I wanted top of the line. I wanted to make sure that my charger was going to handle the output that I wanted for the high amp Enphase charger that I wanted to install. I queried five contractors and only George was responsive, had follow up, and actually did his own background to make sure that what I wanted to do was going to work. He did the extra work to investigate my panel to ensure that my infrastructure could accommodate the extra load. As a home owner, I could tell immediately I was in good hands. I had cheaper options--but I dismissed those out of hand because of poor attitudes, service, follow-up, and shortcut takers. George Leach is none of those things. Not only does George take the extra time to think through his work, when he meets an obstacle, he takes the time to work through it and does the quality job. We have zero worry with regard to the quality of the install of the panel and the charger. Can't recommend George any more highly. I wish I could, cuz he's also a sweetheart. Hiring George was a good decision. Thank you, George!!!!"

If you need reliable and high-quality electrical services, Tony & Sons Electric is the go-to company. Thank you, make sure to ask for Edgar, it was an outstanding experience."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

By nature, two-prong outlets aren't grounded—but the box they run to might be, which makes them safer. The safest way to test if an outlet is grounded is to purchase a circuit tester, which cost about $20 at home improvement stores. 

If you discover your outlet (or outlets) aren't grounded, know that this greatly increases your risk of personal injury and electrical fires. You may want to consider installing new three-prong ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets. On average, the cost to install GFCI outlets is about $210 per outlet.

If you’re outlet isn’t working but the breaker isn’t tripped , that could mean a number of things. First, check if it’s a GFCI outlet, which has added protection so your breakers don’t malfunction. If that’s the case, simply hit the outlet's reset button and see if it works. If it doesn’t, or you don’t have a GFCI outlet, you might have a loose outlet or loose wiring, a damaged breaker, or an overloaded circuit, which would require a dedicated breaker. It’s best to consult with an electrician to diagnose the problem accurately.

Yes, but our analogy with the water hose doesn’t really work here. You see, electrical flow isn’t constant: It ebbs and flows like waves, coming in pulses of power. Hertz measures the rate of change in the flow of electricity, or how often it ebbs and flows. For example, 60Hz means that the electrons pulse through wiring 60 times per second. When they are pulsing, they’re in a brief retreat. Almost all United States equipment is rated for 60Hz.

The color code for the common sprinkler wire is white, and then you can assign the remaining color codes to the rest of the wires for different sprinkler zones. For example, you could use red for the first zone, then blue for the second, and so on.

Color-coding helps you keep track of which wires go to specific zones so that you or a pro can address any issues or repairs quickly. Check your local electrical code for any requirements regarding sprinkler wire colors.

Aluminum wiring can pose a significant fire risk because it tends to expand, contract, and overheat, leading to failing connections and splices. If your home has aluminum wiring, it doesn't always require a complete replacement, but you must take safety precautions. The first step is to hire a licensed electrician to conduct a thorough inspection. Based on their findings, you have several options:

  • Full Replacement: The safest but most expensive solution is to replace all aluminum wiring with copper.

  • Copper Pigtailing: A more budget-friendly option, suitable for certain homes, involves adding a short section of copper wire to the end of each aluminum wire at connection points.

  • Other Safety Upgrades: Your electrician may also recommend installing aluminum-compatible outlets and applying an anti-oxidant paste to connections to prevent corrosion.

Consulting a professional will help you determine the best course of action to ensure your home's wiring meets current safety standards.
