"Great experience with AJC electric, they did a superb job. We are so happy with the work that they did; they showed up on-time, took their time to answer all of our questions. It is refreshing to find someone that really puts the customer first, they take pride in the work that they do, are honest and reliable. They installed recessed lighting in our living room & kitchen, under cabinet lighting, pendant lights and dimmer switches. Thank you Adam & James!!"

"Overall a good experience for troubleshooting a problem. A little expensive for the amount of time spent. Problem was either with appliance or electric circuit and they checked the electric circuit but missed problem with electrical connection to the appliance later found by an appliance repair person."

"Jesse reviewed the circuit breaker issue that I was having. He fully understood the problem and let me know what the options were. He advised me that it was something that I could do myself, but I chose to have him do it, as he offered a very reasonable price and I felt I'd rather have a professional do the job. He was most pleasant to work with. I will keep his info in case I have any other electrical problems in the future. I recommend Persistence Electric to anyone having electrical problems."

"I hired Adam to install a light fixture to go over my pool table. I should mention that Adam is a Master Electrician. He does EXCELLENT work at a very reasonable price!!! I used to use bigger contractors to do all my electrical work [usually an apprentice was sent out]. Adam did a fantastic job. I will use only Adam for all my electrical work from now on. He is very professional and honest. I would highly recommend him to anyone who asks me. The fact that Adam is a Master Electrician and does the work made me feel very comfortable that the job would be done right. He is a 10 out of 10 in my opinion!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

A GFCI outlet is easy to identify. It features two buttons on the face that read “TEST” and “RESET.” Sometimes, the “RESET” button is red. These are positioned in the center of the two three-prong plug-in slots you see on a regular outlet. Some also feature a green light to indicate when the outlet is working, changing to red when there is a problem.

Poorly designed and incorrectly installed outlets can create an electrical fire hazard, as do some phone chargers and adapters that plug into these outlets. However, most outlets are perfectly safe as long as they remain in working condition. Keep an eye on what you are plugging into the outlet and stay alert for signs of outlet malfunction, like sparks, burning smell, or frequent circuit tripping.

In the case of electrical overflow, an ungrounded outlet should trip the circuit breaker, staving off dangerous scenarios. However, this is not always the case, especially if the wires and circuit breaker are worn down or damaged in some way. Ungrounded wires melt over time as they are introduced to more and more electricity. In other words, a circuit breaker offers protection in most instances but not always, and that’s where the danger lies with ungrounded outlets.

If only half of your outlet works, there are usually two possible causes: faulty wiring or a half-hot outlet. The first thing you'll want to do is check the circuit breaker panel to ensure that it's not tripped. If your circuit breaker isn't tripped, turn off the electricity and inspect the wiring to see if anything has come loose or corroded. 

If you have a half-hot outlet, it means half of the outlet is controlled by a switch somewhere on the same circuit, which should be nearby. This is an intentional electrical design commonly found in rooms without overhead lights.

Yes, professional installations typically include wiring, switches, and circuit adjustments for safe operation.
