"Benjamin was very professional and did a great job in only a few hours time. I had old school fluorescent lighting fixture in my kitchen and he removed them and added in 5 recessed lighting can fixtures with a dimmer switch. Such a huge difference!! He also repaired an issue we were having in our hallway. Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality electrical work. He was flexible with my time and very friendly"

"Hey guys, I had an electrician from BriteBox, come to my house to investigate a problem I thought I had. As it turned he (Mark Henderson), the electrician pointed out while checking my electrical panel of something that could be gave down the road. We live in our homes oblivious to what lurks beneath the surface. It's almost, as if you need to take an electrician, along with you on your househunting endeavors. Too ensure the property you may buy is within code, certainly, if it's an older home! By the way he Mark, solved the problem with the original reason for the call!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Local building codes typically require conduit around exterior wiring. Conduit protects the wire from moisture, extreme temperatures, sun exposure, and harsh weather conditions to prolong its lifespan. When a wire is worn out, it can be dangerous as the risk of electric shock or fire increases.

The National Electrical Codebook indicates that there should be at least 6 inches of wiring in the breaker box for connecting purposes. When in doubt, err on the side more, because you can always cut some wire off but you can never add it back on, and if you don’t have enough you may struggle to finish wiring your breaker box properly.

There are several indicators that a single-pole switch is bad: the switch is warm or hot to the touch, sparks are sometimes present when turning the switch on or off, you hear a buzzing sound or other weird noise coming from the switch, the connected light flickers when you turn on the switch, and the light doesn't turn on at all with the switch. If you notice any of these, replace the switch or call a pro straight away.

A sudden tiny spark is normal when first plugging in an appliance. However, if your plug regularly sparks, has other concerning problems, or worries you for any reason, you should call a licensed electrician to have it inspected and ensure that it is not at risk of causing an electrical fire.

No, it doesn’t matter which of the two wires goes on each of the two switch terminals. Just be sure to put the ground wire in the correct terminal. The ground wire is either green, bare copper, or green with a yellow stripe. The other wires are hot wires and are typically black. They can be used interchangeably.
