"Blue Wave Electric LLC recently completed the electrical portion of the construction of our new home. Our builder had issues causing his electrician to drop the project with 85% completion! Thus, we had a very difficult time finding another electrician to Complete the project and take over the permits. Rich, the Blue Wave owner, took on the job and greatly exceeded all our expectations. However, from the initial consultation to the final inspection, Rich and team were professional, punctual, and incredibly knowledgeable. They clearly explained the work that needed to be done, provided a fair and honest quote, dealt with town compliance, inspections and completed the work on time and with great care. What truly impressed us was their willingness to go above and beyond, ensuring everything was perfect while keeping us informed throughout the entire process. We are extremely satisfied and would confidently recommend Blue Wave Electric LLC to anyone who needs electrical services.""

Electrical questions, answered by experts

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.

If you have a garage heater that is 1,500 watts or more, it will need its own breaker. As a good rule of thumb, no appliance should exceed 1,500 watts per outlet for best outcomes. Consult a local garage heating service to determine the power needs for your outdoor or indoor space.

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

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 Replacing old wiring like knob and tube wiring will be even more expensive, but fortunately that kind of outdated wiring is fairly rare.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. 

It’s a great idea to replace and update outlets, especially if an outlet stops working. New outlets work well with modern appliances and devices. Over time, outlets become old and worn—they can even become damaged, cracked, and burnt if the wiring is old and outdated. Old outlets and wiring can cause smoke, sparks, flickering lights, and an electrical fire.
