"We had Henderson Electric hook up the electrical for our new hot tub. They installed the proper breakers, ran conduit/wiring through the attic, to the outside wall, underground to a post, then mounted a switch panel and completed wiring to the hot tub. Can't say enough good things about our experience. Excellent quality of work overall. Very clean and complete professional work. Also very good communication and follow up, which, unfortunately, is not all that common these days. Classic example of doing it right or don't do it, which we really appreciated. We also appreciated the knowledge and expertise as we knew what we wanted done, but not necessarily the best way to accomplish what we needed. They helped us explore and weigh out several options for different ways to do the job, and explained pros and cons of each option. Gave us an estimate the next day and got us on the schedule right away. We had contacted other contractors/electricians and got a few other estimates, some more expensive, some less, but none of them gave us the level of personal service and professionalism like Henderson's. Would absolutely recommend Henderson's to anyone looking to get any home electrical work done."

"The problem turned out to be a burned out small electric door switch. I believe the price was way too expensive for the service performed and the price of the door switch. What more can I say? It got done."

"Built a shop 50 x 66 to for storage. Aron installed all wiring to led light electric doors and outlets. He was on time, professional and I never doubted his knowledge. Electrical is scary to me but it?s a second language to him."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The number of outlets and lights you can safely run on a single circuit depends on the circuit's amperage and local electrical codes. A general rule is to allow one outlet or light fixture per 1.5 amps, keeping the total load under 80% of the circuit breaker's capacity. For example, a 15-amp circuit can typically support up to eight outlets or lights, while a 20-amp circuit can accommodate up to ten. Always consider the combined power usage of all connected devices and fixtures to prevent overloading. For specific guidelines and to ensure safety, it is best to consult local electrical codes or a licensed electrician.

Black is the standard color for hot wires, which transfer electricity to your outlets and switches. Red wires are also hot wires. White (and sometimes gray) wires are considered neutral, delivering power back to the panel. Finally, green wires, which are sometimes bare copper, are ground wires, used to ground an electrical circuit and prevent electrocution.

When wiring a switch, the power typically comes into the receptacle first. The neutral wire goes straight to the outlet, while the hot wire is split. You'll need a wire nut to splice the hot wire back to one of the receptacles, but you will also tie another wire into that same wire nut and run to the switch. That way, you can control the flow of electricity to that particular receptacle by turning the switch on and off.

Smart meters send the readings over a wireless wide area network (WAN) to the power company. This network allows sending small amounts of data slowly over long distances, which is perfect for smart meter readings that occur monthly. If you would prefer a smart meter, contact your power company and consider springing for the cost of replacing your electric meter.

Full home electrical inspections are mandatory if you’re buying a new home, but if you’re just looking for a safety checkup, you have some flexibility. If you don’t have any concerns and your property is relatively new, a basic inspection is usually sufficient. If it’s been a long time since your home was last inspected, or it’s an older home, a full home inspection can help catch any concerns that may fly under the radar.
