"The team at Elekron is fantastic! From start to finish, the process was smooth, efficient, and well communicated. Contacted them for a quote for installing a Tesla electric car charger in our condo/townhouse. Rodrigo arrived on time, answered all my questions and discussed options. Quote was received by email later that evening. Contacted Lucia in the office to move forward and she got things started right away. Worked through the North Miami permitting process (delayed to the holidays, but that was expected) then scheduled our install within in a few days of the permit being approved. James and his assistant, Jorge, showed up on time and began the work. They were super clean, very professional, polite, and worked quickly. Job was done exactly as expected. Can not even begin to express how impressed I was with these two gentlemen. They even vacuumed up the area where a small patch of drywall had to be cut to access the electrical panel. City inspector signed off on the job. We are very pleased with this company and all the team members we connected with throughout the process. Highly recommend them."

"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."

"Guy Jr arrived on time and was very Professional and an all around nice guy. He installed 2 ceiling fans for me, replaced a few light switches and also an outside outlet that I could not get to work. He also looked at my inside and outside breaker panels to make sure everything was up to date. I will be calling Top Dog Electric again for my next round of electrical needs as I just bought this house and I am doing work to it little by little."

"Ragual and Jose arrived on time, looked over the job and gave me a price. They also noted that i had already purchased the Electrical panel to replace the old one, and the breakers to go with it. But they determined that I had bought some breakers that were wrong and need to be exchanged for the correct ones. They took the wrong breakers back to Home Depot, got me a credit and bought the correct ones. It took then 8 hours to pull the old panel out and the subpanel, and replace and rewire them both into the single master panel. They were efficient, careful, and very knowledgeable. They did a great job. So good, that I have hired them to do some work in my warehouse. There, they will move and install several 220V outlets. I highly recommend RDR All In One Electric for your next electrical need."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The best light switch is user dependent. What works for one person might not work for another. Someone looking to ward off burglars may choose to install proximity light switches or anti-vandal switches, while someone who simply wants to find the switch in the bathroom without using a nightlight may prefer an illuminated light switch. Consider the location of your light switch and the features you want to help you decide on the right light switch for your home.

When power is restored to your home, the transfer switch will return to utility power after about 10 seconds. Your generator will then run for a few more minutes to cool down before automatically shutting itself off. In most situations, your home will stay powered by the generator for at least five minutes, even after your power comes back on.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

A pigtail is the only safe way to connect an electrical device to more than one circuit wire. Connecting multiple wires to a single screw terminal is extremely dangerous and must never be done. Many electricians will opt for pigtails even when there are multiple screw terminals available so that the device in question won’t halt the flow of downstream current when a problem arises.
