"Rick was knowledgeable and educated me when n my electric panel. I have old wiring and was tripping my circuit breaker. He found an ingenious solution. Definitely thought outside the box for a great, cost efficient solution that was timely. He was very thorough in his diagnosis and efficient in his solution. I would have him come back anytime I need any electrical assistance."

"Woman who called me to give me more info and schedule was excellent and very friendly, great communication with her. The owner, I believe, who came to look at the job and give me a bid was professional and efficient as were the 3 guys who did the work. There was a 2 hour minimum work window which meant a $200 starting base price. They were done with my two projects (installing the outlet and fixing a hallway light) in less than an hour, so I guess I should have had more projects to get my full money's worth. They did a great job, though."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You should never wire neutral and ground wires together at a light switch. Not only is it unsafe, but it’s also incorrect. The neutral and ground wires perform separate functions in an electrical circuit and should never be swapped or wired together at a light switch, light, or outlet. 

Your heating and cooling systems cost you the most on your electric bill and make up 50% of your bill on average. Your washing machine, dryer, oven, and stove contribute significantly to your electric bill as well. Lights, fans, and smaller electronics add up, but aren’t the biggest energy consumers. You can reduce your power usage by setting optimal temperatures on your thermostat and investing in energy-efficient appliances.

Yes, you can convert a gas water heater to an electric one, but it is a complex process. You will need to ensure there is adequate power for the new electric unit, as they require more power than gas models. The project also involves safely closing off the gas lines and ventilation, and some cities may require a permit for the conversion. The cost can range from $1,500 to $4,100, depending on the installation scope, plumbing and electrical work, and the water heater model. For an accurate quote, it's best to contact a local professional. Also, be aware that your monthly utility bills may increase after the conversion, as natural gas is typically cheaper than electricity.

The hot wire is typically black, but it's essential to use a non-contact voltage tester to confirm the electrical wire color code before working on it. Neutral wires are typically white. It’s vital to determine which wire is carrying electrical current before proceeding with any electrical work.

It’s possible to distinguish a positive black wire from a negative black wire if you know what type of circuit the wires are in. If it’s an alternating current (AC), then black wires are positive. If it’s a direct current (DC), then black wires are negative. 

Sometimes, a circuit has two black wires. In that case, the positive black wire will be solid black while the negative black wire will have a white stripe on it. If you’re still unsure, you can use a multimeter to check.
