"Ravin did a spectacular job. The workmanship is spectacular, from the footings and framing to the details of the decking itself. You can see photos of our deck on Ravin's landing page here: [*** Link removed ***] Kevin and his team were on site at 6:45 every workday and were focused and highly professional. I've done a number of building projects in the 40+ years I've lived here and Ravin is by far the finest construction company I've ever worked with. It's nice to know I never have to look for another builder. I have a hay barn in the planning stages and I'll only have it built by Ravin."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

No, it’s extremely dangerous to cap off live electrical wires. Working with live wires puts you at serious risk of electric shock, which can cause injury or even be fatal. Whenever you need to cap off electrical wires or complete any electrical work in general, it’s essential to shut the power off at the breaker before you begin.

How far you can run underground electric depends on the wire gauge (generally AWG) and the circuit voltage. Too much voltage drop in an electrical circuit can negatively affect performance, so the smaller the voltage drop, the better. Ideally, it shouldn't exceed 3%. The smaller the wire and the longer the run, the more significant the voltage drop. 

For example, with a 120-volt circuit, you can run 60 feet of 12 AWG cable without losing more than 3% voltage. With a 240-volt circuit, you can run 120 feet of 12 AWG wire while maintaining a voltage drop of 3% or less.

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.

Under-cabinet lighting offers excellent energy efficiency compared to ceiling lighting, especially when making the switch from halogen to LED lights. Whether it’s strip lights, puck lights, or built-in lights, these bulbs typically consume less energy while delivering powerful and effective illumination. This eco-friendly lighting solution ensures optimal brightness while reducing energy consumption and operating costs.

First, check the current electrical code in your area to ensure spaces you’re considering meet the requirements. After that, your outlet’s location is up to you. If you’re moving it to hide wiring, you may want to move it in a spot that will also be hidden from view, such as behind a media center or table. As long as you meet the spacing guidelines set by electrical codes, you should be able to pick any spot in your home for an outlet.
