"Gotta love Angie’s List! I googled top rated electrical service companies and sent inquiries to install a generator outlet on my circuit breaker panel. after several days with no response I turned to Angie’s list. Within hours every one of the companies responded. I accepted SWD’s quote and within days the work was completed as promised. Their electrician was on time, extremely knowledgeable as he explained the pros and cons of how to complete the job, and might I add, patient & kind. Bryan took time to speak with my son over the phone as we discussed our options. Before leaving, Bryan made a video to make sure I know how to hook the generator up & use the interlock correctly. As a retired high school teacher, I appreciate honesty, hard work & excellence. I highly recommend SWD."

"Hired Line Side Electrical Inc. Jonatan was very professional and friendly. I had multiple electrical problems in my home. Jonatan fixed each one of them and explained everything he was doing. Also had coach lights installed on the outside of my garage. Jonatan did great work, they look awesome! I would definitely recommend Line Side Electrical Inc. Best money I ever spent! Should have done it sooner."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Your breaker box houses the breakers that control the circuits in your home, shutting them off if they overload or experience similar problems. Your meter box houses your electrical meter that monitors the electricity flowing into your house and measures its use for your utility company.

In some cases, both components are in the same box, but they don’t have to be together. Many homes have them split, with the breaker box inside for easier access and the electric meter outside.

Outdoor outlets should be at least 15-amp, but preferably 20-amp. The exact rating will depend on the electrical load of the devices that will be plugged into the outlet and the capacity of the circuit. It's important not to overload the circuit, which can cause safety hazards such as tripped breakers or electrical fires. In general, a circuit rated for at least 20 amps is recommended for outdoor outlets, while each outlet should be rated for at least 15 amps.

Ultimately, the best device depends on what you’re measuring. A voltmeter only measures volts, while a multimeter measures volts, current, resistance, humidity, and possibly much more, depending on the model. If you think you’ll need to measure more than volts, consider investing in a multimeter so you have a tool that can help you with various household projects.

It’s not recommended to turn off your breaker box in hopes of saving electricity. Breaker boxes were not designed to constantly be switched on and off. Therefore, turning off breakers unnecessarily can cause costly damage that outnumbers any energy savings. Only flip your breakers if absolutely necessary when troubleshooting an electrical issue.

If you’re outlet isn’t working but the breaker isn’t tripped , that could mean a number of things. First, check if it’s a GFCI outlet, which has added protection so your breakers don’t malfunction. If that’s the case, simply hit the outlet's reset button and see if it works. If it doesn’t, or you don’t have a GFCI outlet, you might have a loose outlet or loose wiring, a damaged breaker, or an overloaded circuit, which would require a dedicated breaker. It’s best to consult with an electrician to diagnose the problem accurately.
