"Angus with Magic Electric is the man. There really is no project too big for him and his team to tackle. We had a 350lb Chandelier hung 17 feet in the air, Angus welcomed the challenge with open arms and made it happen. His work looks fantastic and he and his team are second to none. I would highly recommend Magic Electric to anyone who needs work and will gladly use them in the future. Thanks again Angus!"

The Jensen family’s history in electrical work spans three generations. It began with Kyle’s grandfather, who spent 47 years as a maintenance electrician with Mountain Bell. That dedication to craftsmanship continued with Kyle’s father, a well-respected electrical contractor in Southern Utah. Following in their footsteps, Kyle entered the trade early—starting as an apprentice at 16, earning his Journeyman license in 2002, and achieving his Master Electrician license in 2006. With that deeply rooted family foundation, he brings decades of hands-on knowledge to every project.\n\n

"Lee was very easy to deal with from the beginning and made the whole experience a pleasure. He answered all my texts whenever I asked a question. He came when he said to give me an estimate, which was reasonable, and came when he said and did the job. He was professional and did the job quietly, as I work from home, and efficiently. He cleaned up his work area and was pleasant. Iâ m happy to know a good electrician to call now and have recommended him several times already!"

"Working with Magic Electric was a great experience. As a new home owner of an older house I was needing an entire rewire as well as some new outlet, fixtures, and ceiling fans placed. Magic Electric was professional, prompt, and offered very competitive prices. I was very happy with the end result and 10/10 would hire again!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The safest way to pull an electrical cord from the wall outlet is by gently but firmly grabbing the plug and pulling it out. Pulling on the cord instead of the plug can cause damage to the cord, leading to an increased risk of electrical problems like fire or electric shock. If you notice damaged wiring on an appliance or device, it’s best to stop using it immediately.

For a 200-amp underground service, you need a minimum of #2/0 American Wire Gauge (AWG) copper or #4/0 AWG aluminum or copper-clad wire. Don’t forget that, at minimum, you’ll need to use a 1 1/2-inch schedule 40 or 80 PVC conduit to successfully run a 200-amp underground service.

The life expectancy of a circuit breaker is 30 to 40 years. However, how long your circuit breaker lasts depends on the condition of your electrical equipment, the amperage, your electrical consumption, and more. A breaker box that frequently trips from overload will last much shorter than a breaker box with the proper amperage for the number of devices and appliances in use. If your circuit breaker trips frequently, and you have also increased your electrical consumption, it may be worth upgrading your electrical panel to extend your electrical system’s lifespan—and save you the hassle of frequent power trips.

Tankless water heaters won’t increase your electric bill. Since tankless water heaters are more efficient than tank water heaters, installing one in your home will actually allow you to save money on your electric bill. The Department of Energy estimates you can save $100 or more each year with a high-efficiency tankless water heater.

Yes, electric fences need power to operate. They are powered by either a battery or an electrical outlet. In heavy snow or extreme rain, or if the power goes out, your electric fence might stop working. Knowing how to test an electric fence is important for figuring out if the fence is still functioning properly.
