"Joel and Will are electrician superstars in my humble opinion. They worked efficiently to install a light fixture in our entryway and to check out our electrical circuits. We're very pleased with the service they provided and they also showed themselves to be really nice people that we were happy to have in our home. Also, the lady who sets up appointments, Tracy I believe, is an absolute sweetheart who treats customers like they're the most important people in the world. Their service fees are more than reasonable. We won't use anyone else for electrical issues."

"A large tree branch fell on our property and knocked all of our power lines off our house and damaged our electrical system (electric panel, weather head, conduit). I called Mr. Electric late at night and they were able to come by the next morning to repair my electrical system. They did a great job and were able to help get our power back quickly. They were professional and had great communication throughout the process."

"The owner personally "put his life on hold' to help me much faster than I was originally told was the case. This man came twice as the end of his day, to work with me and I couldn't be more pleased. Also, he "knew his stuff" and was very efficient. I highly recommend this pro, and would hire him again."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

There are three main wires on a doorbell, typically color-coded white, black, and green, that are connected to a transformer box in your home. One wire runs to the doorbell button, another wire runs to the door chime, and the third wire runs between the doorbell button and the door chime.

The easiest way to determine the amperage of your electrical outlets is to check the corresponding breaker in your home’s breaker panel. The number is likely noted on the circuit breaker. If that fails, it’s possible to tell 15-amp and 20-amp outlets apart by looking at them. Fifteen-amp outlets have two vertical holes, while 20-amp outlets have one vertical hole and one T-shaped hole. 

It can be safe to buy or live in a house with knob and tube (K&T) wiring, but only if the system is in good condition, functional, and has been thoroughly inspected and approved by a licensed electrician. Never purchase a home with K&T wiring without getting a professional electrical inspection first.

Key considerations include:

  • Safety and Condition: An inspector will verify that the wiring is safe and has not deteriorated. Over time, the insulation can wear away, leaving exposed wires that pose a significant fire or shock hazard.

  • System Capacity: The electrical service should be at least 60 amps. However, even at this capacity, K&T systems often struggle to handle the demands of modern appliances and electronics.

  • Lack of Grounding: Knob and tube wiring is an ungrounded system, which is a safety concern for many modern devices.

  • Ongoing Maintenance: If you live in a home with K&T wiring, it's recommended to have it inspected by an electrician every one to two years to ensure it remains in safe working order.

Ultimately, any inspection or modification of a knob and tube system should always be performed by a certified professional.

Short circuits can cause significant damage to electrical appliances, bodily harm, and potentially death to humans. For this reason, they are a serious occurrence. If you’re unable to find and fix a short circuit on your own, you must reach out to a licensed electrician for help.

Yes, it's possible to have electrical receptacles and overhead lights on the same circuit. The reason is that lights typically use much less power than large appliances, so combining them won't overload your circuit. By doing this, you can distribute the power consumption throughout the breakers in your panel more efficiently, which can be helpful if you have a lot of different electrical devices in your home.
