"Diffused Electrical handled the electrical portion of a fire suppression system install in one of my food trailers for my business, Concession Trailer Depot. From start to finish, they were excellent to work with. • Work ethic: They showed up on time and got the job done efficiently. No delays or excuses. • Quality: The workmanship was clean and professional, exactly what you want on a commercial build. • Communication: They kept me informed throughout the project and explained every step. • Professionalism: Straightforward, easy to deal with, and clearly take pride in their work. I highly recommend Diffused Electrical for any electrical work on food trailers, food trucks, or commercial projects. Great company and great people."

"he was great and got the electricity connected within a reasonable time frame. He and Charlie both were very comunicative. He was going to provide a quote for some future work and provide a receipt for the work he did. So, far I've not received either. I talked to Charlie about it, but so far I've not received either."

"I bought an older house and was wanting to have some electrical work done. So I gave CJ electric a phone call and right out of the gate was very pleased with the customer service and effort put into even just a quote. I was helped with any question I asked, above and beyond. The cost was very affordable and the entire house looked great and worked great when CJ electric finished up. From start to finish they have been great to work with. No mess and no hassle. Highly recommend them."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Choosing a unit with higher BTUs can use more electricity if the BTUs are more than what’s necessary for your room size. However, choosing an AC with BTUs that match the size of your room or house, your unit will cool your space efficiently. On the flip side, choosing a system with not enough BTUs can cause the system to work harder to try to cool the space, leading to more electricity consumption and higher energy bills.

Provided you leave the switch in the off position, your broken bulb shouldn’t be drawing any power. However, there’s always the risk that the switch is turned on by accident, potentially causing electrical damage or even a fire. Plus, broken glass in the home is never ideal. For safety, it’s a good idea to remove broken bulbs as soon as possible. If you’re in doubt, a local lighting professional can help you remove the bulb safely and quickly.

Outdoor outlets should be at least 15-amp, but preferably 20-amp. The exact rating will depend on the electrical load of the devices that will be plugged into the outlet and the capacity of the circuit. It's important not to overload the circuit, which can cause safety hazards such as tripped breakers or electrical fires. In general, a circuit rated for at least 20 amps is recommended for outdoor outlets, while each outlet should be rated for at least 15 amps.

Simple moves on the same base or within a few feet will not take long, roughly three to four hours. Larger moves onto a new wall or transitioning a box from inside to outside will take 8 to 12 hours to complete. Ask your electrician for a time estimate prior to installation.

To fix a tripped light switch, locate your home's electrical panel and identify the tripped circuit breaker. It will be in the "off" or neutral position. Flip the breaker entirely to the "off" position, then switch it back to the "on" position. If the breaker trips again immediately, there may be a short circuit or overload in the system, requiring further investigation. If the switch still doesn't work after resetting the breaker, check for loose wires or faulty components in the switch itself. It is always best to consult a licensed electrician for persistent issues and when in doubt.
