"Devin has done work for us in the past and is always on-time and does great work within our budget. We recently had some power issues and he came over as soon as we called. After doing some investigating he determined the issue and we couldn't be happier. We will continue to use Current Electric."

"This was a great experience and I would recommend them to anyone needing electrical work done. When I called on a Saturday my call was answered promptly and Cory was able to arrange to come over the same day to give a quote. He was very friendly, professional, and courteous. He was also able to complete the job within one day which was super helpful to us. I was initially very nervous about picking a random electrician from an online search but ended up being very happy we picked Ultra Electric Inc. If we have additional projects we will definitely use them again."

"I was so impressed with this company. Their electricians actually knew what they were doing. I had a different company come for a service call, and they had not a clue what to do with my electrical box. The switches were even labeled. I will only use Red Fox for any electrical issues in the future."

"Excellent customer service. Responded to my request for electric assistance within one hour of posting on Home Advisor, was able to do the work the following day, contacted me on the day the work was to be done to let me know he could come early. Prompt, efficient, great work."

"I will call them again for all electrical work I need. Although I was not charged for the initial visit, the electrician spent considerable time bird-dogging a potential problem."

"What a terrific experience we had with Mighty Bee Electric! Martin came the next day after we called. He was on time, clearly knows what he is doing and fixed everything for the estimated cost. And there was no upselling! I will definitely call him for any future electric work!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The most common type of electrical outlet is a 3-prong outlet, which has two flat blades (one is wider than the other) and a round grounding pin. Older homes typically have 2-prong outlets that aren’t as safe as more modern options and are generally not up to current electrical codes.  Other outlets you can find in your home include 20A, 125 volt varieties for larger appliances like refrigerators or washing machines. 

There are also GFCI outlets, which protect against electrical shock in wet areas, such as bathrooms and kitchens, and arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) outlets, which protect against electrical fires caused by arcing.

To power the system down, simply turn it off and cut it off from its electricity. That means removing the transformer from the wall plug and taking out the battery that usually sits within the control panel itself. That will disconnect it from power and essentially reset the entire alarm system.

While some doorbells go silent, others will ring constantly or randomly when they are on the fritz. A doorbell can ring continuously for a few reasons. The button may be stuck in the "on" position, causing the bell to sound repeatedly. Alternatively, one of the wires could have come loose and is touching a metal surface, causing the bell to short circuit and keep making noise.

You can twist the wires before using a wire nut, but it’s not necessary. Electricians often twist wires before using a wire nut, which can help secure the connection and enhance electrical contact between wires. You can decide whether or not to twist the wires beforehand, or consult a local electrician if you need  professional opinion.

To prevent a plug from overheating, always ensure that the electrical load connected to the plug does not exceed the plug's capacity. If the plug feels hot to the touch or emits a burning smell, immediately shut off the circuit breaker and unplug all devices from the hot outlet. Prevent electrical fires by avoiding using extension cords or adapters with the plug, as they can cause it to overheat due to increased resistance. Additionally, ensure that the plug is properly inserted into the outlet and that the outlet is not damaged or loose.
