"As Atomic Stays, a vacation rental management company, emergency maintenance issues can quickly ruin a guest's trip if not handled immediately. When a property we manage had an electrical issue with its water heater on a Sunday, Matt at Ten Mile Electric answered the call and stepped up right away. Matt was incredibly fast to respond, arrived promptly, and efficiently diagnosed and fixed the issue. Getting a skilled electrician out on a weekend is no small feat, but Matt delivered outstanding, reliable service when we needed it most. We are so grateful for his quick turnaround and professional work. We highly recommend Matt and Ten Mile Electric, and we will definitely be reaching out to him for any future electrical needs!"

"I really enjoyed the work by these Networking/Ethernet folks. A different provider had quoted me an $800-1000 project and said I needed Cat 6 cabling for ethernet, when really my existing Cat 5E was fine. All it took was ~$100 and one hour for parts and labor and I now have ethernet ports in every room that support Gigabit speed. Thanks again! Couldn't be happier with this."

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

A larger heater requires a larger breaker—unless there’s one already installed. The longer answer to this question is more nuanced. Do you place demands on the heater at the same time as running other heavy-duty appliances like ovens and washing machines? Do you live in an older home that may not have considered the higher electrical demands we have now? Breakers need to be sized at 125% of the load. To find that load, you should call a local electrical pro.

Yes, an electrical fire can start even if nothing is plugged into an outlet. While a correctly functioning outlet poses no risk, a fire can be caused by faulty wiring, damaged outlet components, an overloaded circuit, or other electrical problems hidden behind the walls. If you suspect a fault, immediately turn off the circuit breaker and contact a professional electrician to diagnose and repair the issue.

The cost of fixing faulty wiring depends on the type of repair required. Replacing an electrical service line, for example, can cost up to $500. Rewiring an entire house will cost at least several thousand dollars. Replacing old wiring like knob and tube wiring will be even more expensive, but fortunately that kind of outdated wiring is fairly rare. Always get an estimate from a reliable electrician to learn the cost details. 

Many ceiling fan-rated electrical boxes tend to be made of metal. However, some electrical boxes may also be made of heavy-duty plastic that is reinforced with metal support structures. It may also have an attachment that connects directly to a ceiling joist. If you are ever ensure, consult with a licensed professional to get their insight on best practices and whether the installation is a safe one.

They can vary—a lot. For example, while the EU continues to move toward broader standardization, many different types of outlets still exist from country to country. Some local standards cared about polarization, and some didn’t. It’s similar to other countries around the world.

Generally, you’re less likely to find polarized outlets outside North America. However, alternative plugs and outlets often incorporate precautions so that accidentally touching live prongs on a plug is hard or impossible. You may also find interesting regulations overseas that limit the use of outlets in bathrooms or near sinks to decrease the chance of shock.
