"Today we had Jairo and Rene from ELEKRON ELECTRIC install a ground wire, which was not installed in my dryer. They install a ground wire and an electrical cord for my dryer which burned out because of faulty wiring in the past from another electrical company's electrian. They also installed an outside flood light, and a track light in the washer and dryer closet. These men where polite, clean, and professional I was impressed and satisfied with their work, I will call again ELEKRON ELECTRIC. Highly Recommend"

"We recently had extensive electrical work completed in our mother’s home, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the entire experience. The project included rewiring, installing ceiling fans (including relocating one to a new location), installing two new light fixtures in our stairwell, updating all switches and outlets throughout the home, and adding an outdoor outlet on our balcony. From beginning to end, the service was exceptional. Alex was consistently punctual, professional, courteous, and highly knowledgeable. Every aspect of the work was completed with great attention to detail and precision, and the quality of craftsmanship exceeded our expectations. Alex is dependable, highly skilled, and respectful. We will absolutely continue to rely on him for any future electrical needs and would confidently recommend him to anyone seeking high-quality electrical services."

"Mr. Sparky Electric was completely professional and in touch every step of the way. Their technician Jean Cardoza was totally knowledgeable and identified our problem quickly. He then installed two ceiling fans in expert fashion. We will use Mr. Sparky from now on for all electrical needs"

"My wife and I received several estimates for electrical work on our home through Angie’s List and the technicians from Top Dog Electrical Inc. stood out from the rest due to their enthusiasm to perform the job properly, up to building code, and accommodate our requests. Some companies recommended performing the electrical work that would have changed the aesthetics of our home in a negative way because they wanted to avoid the attic. Other companies didn’t like to discuss the details of how they planned to accomplish some of our projects. Then Chad from Top Dog Electrics Inc. showed up to discuss our electrical projects and I remember Chad commenting, “no job is impossible.” A couple weeks later Chad and Guy showed up to start our projects and later called in reinforcements to help complete all of the work on time. All of our projects were completed as requested to perfection and in a proficient and timely manner. Not to mention that Chad and company repaired the necessary access holes in the walls to facilitate the completion of the jobs. Who does that? Chad and company at Top Dog Electrical did! Thank you, gentlemen, for a job well done. My wife and I were totally impressed."

"I only have positive things to talk about this company. I used them to install a new electrical system, and enhance my light fixtures. I found them on YGRENE preferred list. They're super professional, prompt, honest and hard working team. I am very pleased with their work. I love the communication with Pedro (owner). You can tell he takes great pride in providing the best experience for the customers. The receptionist Mariana was always communicative throughout the process. The technician were super professional and got the job done fast. I work in the real estate business and sometimes its hard to find a honest, professional and good quality electrician contractor to refer to clients. Now I have an electrician to call for my needs and refer to my clients. Great experience. I highly recommend them for all electrical repair or upgrade needs including generators, solar panels, cameras. You name it. They do it all."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s safe to strip a wire if you follow the proper safety precautions. First and foremost, you must always disconnect the power and never try stripping a live wire. Using wire strippers is another safety precaution, but don’t forget to keep your fingers away from the blade. It’s also critical you only remove the insulation and not accidentally cut into the conductor, which is unlikely as long as you’re using the right-sized wire stripper.

Grounding an electrical outlet can take as little as 30 minutes if you only need to replace the outlet or around two hours if you need to add a ground wire. However, more extensive electrical work will take longer, such as hiring an electrician to ground multiple outlets during the same service.

Labor, materials, job complexity, and urgency affect costs for switches and outlets; expect from $150 for simple sets to $600+ for significant upgrades.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.
