"Mr. Henderson is now MY electrician! He worked on the project until he found the solution, even returning the next day (actually it was after 8 p.m.) to make sure the job was done and done right. Excellent service; I'd recommend Mr. Henderson for anyone's electrical issues. I will definitely be calling him again!!! Good snag, Home Advisor!!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Bruce and Adrian did an excellent job installing my new fixtures. They took care not to damage the house and cleaned up when they were finished. They were very professional, kept me informed of their progress, and everything worked perfectly. I was very impressed with them. Also, Otis came by during the work to check and make sure everything was going to my satisfaction. That's customer service. I know who I will be using for all my future electrical work."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The most common type of electrical outlet is a 3-prong outlet, which has two flat blades (one is wider than the other) and a round grounding pin. Older homes typically have 2-prong outlets that aren’t as safe as more modern options and are generally not up to current electrical codes.  Other outlets you can find in your home include 20A, 125 volt varieties for larger appliances like refrigerators or washing machines. 

There are also GFCI outlets, which protect against electrical shock in wet areas, such as bathrooms and kitchens, and arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) outlets, which protect against electrical fires caused by arcing.

The easiest and best way to power your outdoor lights is with the use of outdoor outlets. Most building codes now require exterior outlets in homes, so you likely already have outdoor outlets available to plug into. However, you can have these outlets installed if your space doesn’t currently include them.

According to the National Electrical Code (NEC), GFCI outlets should be installed in wet or damp locations where they might be splashed with water or other liquids. This is to protect against ground faults, which are more common around water. Specific areas that require GFCI outlets include kitchens (especially near counters), bathrooms, laundry rooms, basements, garages, and all outdoor receptacles. Depending on local electrical codes, you may need at least one GFCI outlet in these rooms, or every outlet in the area may need to be GFCI protected.

If you've ever tried to run your dishwasher while drying your hair, you’ll understand why dedicated circuits are essential for preventing blown fuses. Appliances that require more electricity than the circuit can handle could blow fuses, trip breakers, overheat, and risk an electrical fire. 

Having a dedicated circuit ensures that your appliance gets the current it needs without overloading the other circuits in your home.

You can twist the wires before using a wire nut, but it’s not necessary. Electricians often twist wires before using a wire nut, which can help secure the connection and enhance electrical contact between wires. You can decide whether or not to twist the wires beforehand, or consult a local electrician if you need  professional opinion.
