"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 cannot say enough positive things about CT Electrical and the owner Charles. I had a very time sensitive new electrical panel installed. Charles made it happen in two days, even over a holiday weekend and pulled all permits. Great job, great communication, and best of all 50% less expensive than the â big guysâ . Charles is proud of the business he has built and his integrity shows!"

"Electrician Pro MItch was super.. had super knowledge of my electrical problem, immediately fixed the problem and let me know what he was doing. Talked to me on my level about electricity and was in no hurry to be in and out. Tested what he did thoroughly. Gave me good recommendations and suggestions on how I could make my electrical system more efficient regarding bulb watts and amps in my electrical box. A very pleasant gentleman who really cared about me not only as a customer but a person. I'd have him back for any further electrical needs. The only disappointment was that I hired them because they said they could come in 2 days and then they rescheduled me for a 4 day wait and I had no electricity for that long of time. Thank you"

"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."

"Pop Chris Fackler and the JC2 Lighting and Electrical team are the best electricians I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. They are professional, knowledgeable and can work on any electrical project. Chris is responsive and excellent at explaining the requirements and the course of action that is needed for repairs and installations. We have had some very difficult electrical issues-because of Chris and his tenacity he was able to find the cause of our problem and correct work done by another company. I highly recommend Chris and his team. There simply is no one better to call."

"Seneca Trujillo came out to give us a price quote on electrical work in our garage for an EV. He was professional, honest, straightforward and explained everything clearly. He took the time to answer all of my questions and concerns and gave a fair and transparent estimate without upselling unnecessary work. It's refreshing to meet someone who is trustworthy and puts integrity first. He definitely deserves a raise for the way he represents Heart Heating, Cooling, Plumbing and Electric."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Hiring an electrician to install a new ceiling fan may be the best course of action. Installing a ceiling fan requires basic electrical and mechanical knowledge. It also requires holding it up with one hand and in an awkward position, making the installation even more difficult. If you’re uncomfortable with these circumstances, your best bet is to hire a professional.

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.

If a 240V appliance is connected to a 120V outlet, the lower voltage will cause that appliance to receive insufficient power. This may result in reduced performance, malfunctions, or even damage to the appliance's components. Depending on the size of your electrical circuit, you’ll likely need to reset a tripped circuit breaker at the very least.

Yes, states and local governments can have additional building codes that address kitchen outlets. In most cases, these kitchen outlet codes simply refer to the NEC. However, states or local municipalities can have separate requirements for electrician licensing, such as requiring a permit to make big changes, and other details.

According to the National Electrical Code (NEC), GFCI outlets should be installed in wet or damp locations where they might be splashed with water or other liquids. This is to protect against ground faults, which are more common around water. Specific areas that require GFCI outlets include kitchens (especially near counters), bathrooms, laundry rooms, basements, garages, and all outdoor receptacles. Depending on local electrical codes, you may need at least one GFCI outlet in these rooms, or every outlet in the area may need to be GFCI protected.
