"Jared P. did an amazing job for our family. He took out an old window, rotten wood, and sheetrock. He meticously informed us of each and every step he was taking. When he got into the job, he discovered there was more damage than originally thought. Instead of overcharging, he kept us in the loop and gave us option. We give our highest recommendation and will hire Jared P. for a future construction project that we have planned. The Andersons"

"We got Inrush Electric from HomeAdvisor and were very impressed. They were clear on pricing, effort, and timing to fix our lights in our garage. We ended up asking them to install 3 new outlets in our basement. The price was very fair and the work was clean and professional. They are friendly and easy to work with via texting. I would easily go through them again for more electrical work!"

"I called mister electric(Gus) and I needed electrical work to put in a system for backup power in case of a power outage. Reset up a time for the next day for him to come out and take a look at my problem. He was promptly here on time. A matter of fact he was early. He evaluated my problem and gave me an estimated price and he said he could come out the next day and do the work . You came up the next day on time as usual. He came out and did the job very professionally. And answered any questions that I had. The price was exactly what he told me and even did a few extra things for free . Very knowledgeable company, and didn't try to sell me something that I didn't want the job was great."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The most common type of electrical outlet is a 3-prong outlet, which has two flat blades (one is wider than the other) and a round grounding pin. Older homes typically have 2-prong outlets that aren’t as safe as more modern options and are generally not up to current electrical codes.  Other outlets you can find in your home include 20A, 125 volt varieties for larger appliances like refrigerators or washing machines. 

There are also GFCI outlets, which protect against electrical shock in wet areas, such as bathrooms and kitchens, and arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) outlets, which protect against electrical fires caused by arcing.

The American Wire Gauge system calculates wire size diameters using the complicated formula D(AWG)=.005·92((36-AWG)/39) inch. A simpler rule of thumb is that every six-gauge decrease doubles the wire diameter, and every three-gauge decrease doubles the wire’s cross-sectional area. On the other hand, wavenumbers are typically measured in reciprocal meters (1/m or m−1) or reciprocal centimeters (1/cm or cm−1).

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.

Hiring a professional electrician to wire a house costs anywhere from $1,500 to $10,000 or more depending on the size and complexity of the project. Most professional electricians charge $50 to $100 per hour. While the extra expense is significant, it’s worth it to ensure the safety of your home’s electrical system. 

Most standard residential water heaters, which are typically around 40 gallons and use 240 volts and between 3,500 and 5,500 watts, require a 30-amp, two-pole circuit breaker. For smaller, point-of-use water heaters using 120 volts and between 1,500 and 3,000 watts, a 30-amp breaker is also often adequate. However, some models may have different needs; units that use more watts than average may require a 40-amp breaker, while smaller units might only need a 20-amp breaker. Newer, tankless, or more energy-efficient models can also require a higher amperage. Having the correct breaker size is crucial for safe and efficient operation, so it's best to consult a licensed electrician to determine the specific needs of your water heater.
