Q: Why is the power out in one room but the breaker is not tripped?

• <div><p>Unfortunately, a partial power outage without a tripped breaker often means you have a major wiring issue or that the breaker itself is going bad. When the power is out in one room but the breaker is not tripped, you need to call an electrician as soon as possible to identify the cause of the problem and repair it.</p></div>

Q: Can I ground an outlet to plumbing?

• <div><p>Before the widespread use of PVC, affixing a ground wire to plumbing pipes was generally considered to be an acceptable workaround. Nowadays, not so much. There are plenty of nonmetallic water pipes and fittings out there, so any ground previously provided by the metallic piping would be interrupted in these cases, which is dangerous.</p></div>

Q: Do you need an electrician to install a garage door opener?

• <div><p>No, you don&rsquo;t need to hire an electrician to install your garage door opener. Garage door professionals have the skills and expertise to install the wiring necessary to connect the opener to your home&rsquo;s wiring system. When hiring a local garage door professional to install your system, make sure the opener task is included in the list of provided services. </p></div>

Q: How close can a transfer switch be to a generator?

• <div><p>Generally, you&rsquo;ll want to keep between <b>60 and 70 feet</b> between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:</p><ul><li><p>The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.</p></li><li><p>It increases efficiency because you won&rsquo;t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.</p></li><li><p>Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: How can I tell if a breaker is GFCI?

• <div><p>You can tell if a breaker is GFCI by looking for a red or yellow test and reset button that you can press in and out. You&rsquo;ll know if an outlet is GFCI if the red reset button is located in between the two pronged sections.</p></div>
