"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

A 3-prong, 15-amp, 120-volt outlet is standard in the U.S. These have two vertical slots and a U-shaped grounding hole, which suits most home electronics, from televisions to microwaves. Three-pronged outlets are safer than 2-pronged ones, as the third wire, known as the grounding wire, helps prevent shocks and electrical fires.

No, a ceiling fan doesn’t have to be wired to a switch, but it’s often more convenient. You can use the included pull chain if your ceiling isn’t too high or install a remote module later, as they are a cheap, easy-to-install option that’ll let you control both the fan and light fixture.

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.

The standard voltage for United States power outlets isn’t shared around the world, and neither is the shape of the power connector. This is why you need travel adapters when spending time abroad. Where the United States typically uses 110/120V outlets, outlets in Europe typically use 220/240V. Power outlets can vary in other ways around the world, too. Not everyone uses the 60Hz frequency, for example, and not everyone even uses AC power in outlets. Always do your research when traveling to see what you need.

Replacing your electrical meter box is critical because it helps prevent damage to your home’s electrical system or possible safety hazards. Plus, you won’t have to deal with frequent power tripping, flickering lights, or the scorched scents that an old or damaged meter box may cause.
