"I recently had Mr. Electric of Douglasville out to install an EV charger outlet at my home, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the communication was excellent. The team was professional, friendly, and kept me informed throughout the process. The installation itself was handled perfectly—clean, efficient, and high-quality work. It’s great to find a reliable local team that delivers on their promises. I will definitely be using them again for future projects around the house!"

"Great experience with BriteBox Electrical Services. Cory Henderson was professional, respectful, and easy to communicate with from start to finish. I showed him where I wanted the outlet installed, and he handled everything with precision. He took the time to protect the work area, safely shut down the circuit, and completed a clean, high-quality installation. The workmanship was excellent. I’ll definitely be requesting Cory again for future projects. Highly recommend!"

"I was contacted promptly to have the job evaluated and get an estimate of cost. The work was scheduled for the next week and the electrician arrived promptly that morning. He installed under-the-cabinet lighting and uplighting, along with the switch for the new lighting and a dimmer switch for the overhead lighting in my kitchen. He obviously knew what he was doing. He was professional, skilled, and worked his way through a few things that could have made the job really miserable to accomplish. He was pleasant and offered up suggestions but valued my preferences as to the final result. The price was what was quoted to me. I have no reservations in recommending Wright Electrical Services . . . you will be happy with the result!"

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.

It wouldn’t be abnormal to view all wiring as simply wiring, but wiring has different gauges and can handle different loads. When you’re wiring for 240V, you need wire that is rated at least 240V, but honestly it’s better to spend a little more and just buy 300V wiring. This ensures a margin of safety in case the wiring gets overloaded.

On average, the cost to run electricity to an above ground pool is about $1,000. Certain factors can increase or cut these costs. For example, a larger pool or one farther from your house may require additional trenching for wiring, bringing costs as high as $4,000. On the other hand, a standard-sized pool closer to your home may only cost $350 to hook up to electricity.

For more complex electrical projects, it’s often most efficient and cost-effective to hire an electrician rather than trying to figure it out yourself (and risking electrical problems). Electricians know exactly what a project requires, and can often find supplies or parts for cheaper than the average homeowner. That can save money compared to going it alone.

How far you can run underground electric depends on the wire gauge (generally AWG) and the circuit voltage. Too much voltage drop in an electrical circuit can negatively affect performance, so the smaller the voltage drop, the better. Ideally, it shouldn't exceed 3%. The smaller the wire and the longer the run, the more significant the voltage drop. 

For example, with a 120-volt circuit, you can run 60 feet of 12 AWG cable without losing more than 3% voltage. With a 240-volt circuit, you can run 120 feet of 12 AWG wire while maintaining a voltage drop of 3% or less.
