"ELI was wonderful! He arrived on time, was friendly, thorough and quick. What really impressed me was ELI'S attention to the little details--he made sure no water, garbage got loose under the counter, used a mat to protect my floor/inside counter, cleaned up everything--even my sink--when he was done and, finally, put everything back under the counter where it was before he came! Above and beyond customer service! I will recommend AAA who anyone who needs drains unplugged! Also I like the company and especially the SERVICE so much, I'm meeting with a tech for another job--electrical this time. THANK YOU, ELI for your time, service and patience with my speech! much appreciated!"

"My husband with Alzheimer’s can usually change a light switch but while doing the one in the bathroom couldn’t get it. I put an urgent message on Angie’s list and Terry from Zap electric gave me a call in a few minutes. He came and fixed the switch in 20 minutes. He was knowledgeable and so nice. He gave us a senior discount. A bathroom light is a must and he saved me that day. Please call him of you need any electrical!"

"Ruben was on time, kind, courteous, very knowledgeable, and fair. He figured out our electrical service issue quickly, and had time to squeeze in other necessities that we didn’t think we would have time for. I will be using Ruben and his son going forward."

"I had an excellent experience with Austin — he called me within 10 minutes of submitting my request on Angi’s List. He arrived at my home within half an hour and got straight to work converting an old cable outlet into a new electrical outlet in my living room. The job was done quickly, cleanly, and exactly as requested. I also asked him to rewire my current outlet so it wouldn’t be controlled by a wall switch, and he handled that with no problem. He was prompt, professional, friendly, and genuinely happy to help — highly recommend!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Tipping an electrician is not a requirement nor is it expected, as they build a fair wage into the price of the job. It’s up to your discretion. There are no set rules for tipping electricians, but if they did a great job and you’re so inclined to tip 10% to 15%, it will likely be received with thanks.

Yes, placing an electrical panel in a bedroom is perfectly acceptable, so long as it meets other space requirements as indicated by OSHA and related agencies. When installed in a bedroom, electricians typically place it in the area directly behind the door swing. This method allows for easy access when conducting electrical panel repairs.

Electrical fires are unique from other fire types because they have the potential to deliver electric shocks in addition to being on fire. Avoid serious injury from possible electrical emergency situations by avoiding the use of water, foam-based fire extinguishers, wet-chemical fire extinguishers,  flour, or baking powder to put out an electrical fire. 

There is no blanket figure for a residential home’s electrical load, since load varies by the size of the home, how many appliances are used, and the efficiency of their electrical systems. Typically, however, it’s safe to assume 40 to 60 amps is the average electrical load of a residential home. 

Smoke detectors come in two different options: hardwired or battery-operated. While hardwired units are attached directly to the home’s electrical system, a battery-operated smoke detector only needs a simple battery for operation and can be placed virtually anywhere in your home. Some homeowners may mistakenly think their battery-operated units are hardwired in because all their units are interconnected, but many battery-operated units can operate within a smoke alarm network in your home.
