"This was my third time using Big Frog Electric with the first two being 240 volt outlet in garage for car charger. The service was exemplary as always. Alan assisted me from the beginning to end. He clearly explained to be what issues my power meter was having. On the day of installation he was extremely patient waiting 6 hours for Georgia Power to arrive and shut off power to the Meter. After instalation he explained what work was done in layman's terms. My experience with Big Frog Electric left me beyond satisfied. It's not just the high quality of work but also the excellent customer service that has made me a Big Frog Electric customer for life. Highly recommended!!!"

"This is an American US Citizen company with working American employees. Cole arrived with 18 yrs of electrical experience. WOW he knows his stuff. I had a ancient electrical box with federal breakers which are known to cause fires. Cole said my old box was in bad shape. It was a no brainer to spend the money and upgrade to general electric breakers. I also hired him to hard wire my carbon and smoke detectors. Job #1 took 2 days. The other work will be done in August 2021. For an experience electrician this is your company."

"Lightning Bug Electric was very helpful with all our post home-inspection needs, from adding new electrical sockets, fixing lighting switches, installing exterior/interior plugs for new TVs and and removing very old floor boxes. Knowledgable, friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our new house was all ready. Scott and Griffin were the specialists who made us feel comfortable and confident in choosing Lightning Bug Electric. Will absolutely use them again in future."

"FIVE stars! Honest, professional, and reliable. I would recommend NGES to anyone looking for electric work. Philip and his team addressed everything found on our home inspection report and explained the process clearly so we understood everything. They were prompt and did a great job. We will definitely be using them in the future."

"David Hardeman and his assistant Nate Toussaint did an excellent job installing dedicated 220 circuit for my new Kia Sportage plugin. Everything went smoothly and they came up with a more efficient route to take for snaking new line. David was great in allowing his assistant to have input. - something seldom seen! David also put in a whole house surge protector which necessitated an addition to my breaker box. They cleaned up after themselves as well!! I will definitely use them for some additional jobs I thought of the minute they drove away!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Sprinkler valves typically have 16 AWG or 18 AWG wires. AWG, or American Wire Gauge, is the standard measurement for wire gauge sizing in the U.S. The gauge is the thickness of the wire, with higher AWG numbers indicating thinner wires. You can find the gauge measurement in your sprinkler system’s user manual or on the sprinkler manufacturer’s website.

That depends on your setup. If a circuit breaker already has GFCI protection, then everything connected to that specific circuit is being monitored. You don’t need additional GFCI outlets on that breaker.

However, if the breaker is not GFCI, then you should have GFCI receptacles for at-risk outlets nearby water sources, because they are not receiving protection. Breakers in a breaker box can vary between GFCI and non-GFCI. Look for GFCI labels on the breaker or try to find the breaker model number to look it up if you aren’t sure.

You should never plug a normal 120v appliance into a special 240v outlet, as it can quickly burn out the appliance. This will cause irreparable damage to the appliance and, in worse case scenarios, cause damage to your circuit breaker. Check your appliance’s rating before plugging it into a 220v outlet to avoid electrical disaster.

Durations range from an hour for simple jobs to full workdays for significant upgrades.

By nature, two-prong outlets aren't grounded—but the box they run to might be, which makes them safer. The safest way to test if an outlet is grounded is to purchase a circuit tester, which cost about $20 at home improvement stores. 

If you discover your outlet (or outlets) aren't grounded, know that this greatly increases your risk of personal injury and electrical fires. You may want to consider installing new three-prong ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets. On average, the cost to install GFCI outlets is about $210 per outlet.
