Electrical questions, answered by experts

Standard electric water heaters (about 40 gallons) typically need a 30-amp circuit breaker. But if you have a newer model, a tankless water heater, or one that’s more energy efficient, you’ll likely need a higher amperage to power it. 

Having the right size circuit breaker for your water heater is an important part of making sure it heats water efficiently and runs safely. A licensed electrician can help you navigate your options, and determine what you need for your new water heater. 

No, both switches do not need to be on for a 3-way switch to work. When the two switches are in opposite positions, the circuit is open and the light is off. Flipping either switch closes the circuit and turns the light on. So, either switch can turn the light off independently, and both switches do not need to be in the same position for the switch to function.

No, it is not safe to use an outlet that sparked. A spark from an outlet could indicate a short circuit, loose or frayed wiring, or other serious damage. Continuing to use an outlet that sparks can increase the risk of electrical shock, electrical fires, and other hazards. It's important to turn off the power to the outlet at the circuit breaker if possible and avoid using the outlet until a licensed electrician has inspected and repaired it.

If the box the outlet is running to is already grounded, a professional's work is pretty straightforward. A pro might charge up to $35 per outlet than needs to be replaced.

Electricians typically charge $50 to $100 per hour for labor. The cost to install a new electrical outlet in your home ranges from $130 to $300.

One sign of a blown outlet is a burning smell. If you smell something smoky or burning, contact an electrician and have them look at it as soon as possible. Other signs of a blown outlet are a melted or discolored plastic cover. You may also notice a plug falling out, which indicates it’s no longer functioning.
