Electrical questions, answered by experts

It’s possible to distinguish a positive black wire from a negative black wire if you know what type of circuit the wires are in. If it’s an alternating current (AC), then black wires are positive. If it’s a direct current (DC), then black wires are negative. 

Sometimes, a circuit has two black wires. In that case, the positive black wire will be solid black while the negative black wire will have a white stripe on it. If you’re still unsure, you can use a multimeter to check.

Yes, you can plug an extension cord or an outlet extender into a GFCI outlet. The GFCI outlet will still be able to protect your system in the same way.

There are a few telltale signs that it’s time for a replacement. You should consider an upgrade if:

  • Your panel is over 25 years old

  • You’re adding a new electrical system

  • Your current system doesn’t offer the power you need

  • Your home is a jungle of power strips

To upgrade electrical systems in older homes, you might need to reroute new wires with lath and plaster walls. That’s because it’s more challenging to get inside the walls of an older home compared to a modern home, which usually uses drywall. But there are easier ways to level up your electrical game in an older home. For instance, you can swap out an old furnace for a new electric heat pump, or you could use a heat pump for water heating.

Watts and volts represent distinct aspects of a light bulb’s functionality. Volts measure the electrical force that drives the current through the bulb, determining its compatibility with the power source. Watts, on the other hand, quantify the bulb’s power consumption and indicate its brightness level. Higher watts generally mean a brighter bulb.
