"Devin Dotson, the owner, spent the day at my home installing a new 200 amp electrical panel. I was very impressed with the quality of his work. He did a great job. He was thorough, marked every new fuse and labeled what each one was connected to. Then he tested everything in the house to ensure it was working properly. I couldn't be happier with Current Electric and highly recommend them."

"I selected Epic out of several estimates to install a ChargePoint EV charger. One reason was that they are a small business, which we like to support. Yurii stayed in touch by email right up to the day of the job. He showed up at precisely the time promised and he and his partner Daniel got right to work. Some breakers in the panel had to be changed to accommodate another 240 50 amp and conduit had to be run to where the charger was to be located. They were fast and professional in their work and completed the job in about 2 1/2 hours. Everything works perfectly. And the cost was very reasonable. I am so pleased that I chose them to do the work and recommend them to anyone who is looking for an electrician."

"Sebastian is the best, he came out for a quote, very punctual, professional and asked us alot of questions about what we needed/wanted, he's very knowledgeable so gave us options. He came back with his helper and they installed a new electrical panel & a sub-panel that we requested. Only took one day, great communication, professional, best quote we got at $ 6000.00 Would definitely recommend."

"I'm so glad we went with JM Electric to replace/upgrade our electrical panel. They were fast, efficient, professional, courteous, and above all gave great advice. They even installed my husband's new garage heater after installing the designated electrical wire for it. I have no clue as to what or where the wires go beyond the outlets themselves. I just mentioned what we needed, Josh and Zach explained everything prior and handled everything on installation day. Definitely will be hiring them again if we ever need more electrical work. Thanks again JM Electric! (Josh and Zach)"

"We are so pleased with the installation of the panel and the with the fact that Ron pointed out the other issues we had and corrected those things too. Both Ron and Billy were professional and personable. We are happy with all of the work that they did, the explanation of what we needed and why, the clean up and how conscientious they were with our dogs. We will call MighyBee for all of our electrical needs in the future and will definatly recommend them to our friends."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If your home already has wires for a ceiling fan (and optional light kit), then it’s quite safe to wire and install it yourself. Always be very careful to shut off the power before you begin, and confirm that the power is safely off with a non-contact voltage tester before touching anything. It’s also highly recommended to use eye protection, rubberized gloves, and tools with rubber handles to keep yourself safe from electric shock.

When removing an old security alarm system, you likely won't need to remove any of the wiring. Wiring can either be left in place for a replacement system or capped off for safety and pushed into the wall. If you're uncomfortable with the wiring, or if it's badly damaged, contact a professional electrician for assistance with safe removal.

Most household circuits can handle about 70 strings of 50 standard mini lights, or up to 600 strings of LED lights, which consume less power than the incandescent variety. Make sure to factor in any appliances also running on the circuit.

Compared to amps, volts, and watts, ohms are a different kind of measurement, though also very common. Ohms show the resistance of materials like wiring: How much they impede the flow of electrons. The reason household wiring is usually copper or aluminum is that these materials are affordable and also have lower ohms, which means low resistance/high conductivity.

It wouldn’t be abnormal to view all wiring as simply wiring, but wiring has different gauges and can handle different loads. When you’re wiring for 240V, you need wire that is rated at least 240V, but honestly it’s better to spend a little more and just buy 300V wiring. This ensures a margin of safety in case the wiring gets overloaded.
