"Without A+Charo Electrical's help, our electrical issue would not have been resolved. They were able to troubleshoot the issue and were responsive and quick to come out to our house, which we greatly appreciated. Thank you!"

"Fantastic work! Homer, with his crew, Eric, Damien, and Norris, did an outstanding job with my electrical work. I had 16 light fixtures replaced, one new ceiling flush mount added, an electrical outlet added, dimmer switches added, and refreshed/added kitchen recessed lights. The care with which they worked was incredible. They were not only skilled but also attentive to detail and left your place clean afterward. Homer and his team must take pride in their workmanship. If you ever need electrical work done in the future, you know exactly who to call!"

"I'm glad we hired A and Z. Barry Goldstein gave us a call and come to our residence to look at the work needed. Barry is a great and sincere person and we enjoy the small talk but got to business. We were in need of GFCI electric switches in the kitchen, bathroom, and other areas. Plus, we need new electrical outlets in our closets in both bedrooms and have the pulley taken out, and ad a fixture on the outside of the closet. We also had a hazard with the powerline where the clamps that are attached to the outside wall of the house were hanging out. Plus the kitchen exhaust fan and the ceiling fan needed to be installed and they did. The crew explained what is expected in the process and the price. They placed it back to her tight in order for us to get COMED to fix the wiring. They came and fixed the job and did it cleanly and professionally. The crew was great to talk to and we felt they value customer service no matter what the job. We like their overall work and are responsive. I recommend A to Z for anyone looking for small to big jobs. Great job they did."

"Jack has performed multiple jobs for us at our house. This review is long overdue. Initially, Blazer electric has completed majority of the electric in our unfinished basement which required running conduit to install recessed lighting and multiple outlets. In addition, they have replaced bathroom lights, exhaust fans, ceiling fans, outdoor lights, kitchen undermount lights etc. Jack and his team are very prompt/professional along being priced fairly. I highly recommend using them for any of your electrical needs!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Schedule regular inspections, clean fixtures, and replace worn-out components promptly.

A home electrical inspection usually takes one to two hours. Full home inspections fall on the longer side, while code compliance inspections that focus on a single repair or installation may only take a few minutes. Optional add-ons like infrared inspections can add time, but these aren’t usually included in your standard inspection.

Yes, you must use the proper wire nut that fits your wire gauge. Using a wire nut that’s too big or too small can cause your connection to fail, short circuit, or disconnect entirely. Ensuring that you have the proper wire nut size will guarantee that your connection lasts as long as possible.

A ground wire is not required for GFCI to work. A ground is a third wire in an outlet in addition to the live and neutral wires. It serves as an escape conduit for electricity in case of a short circuit. If a ground wire is present, installers should connect it to the appropriate terminal. Otherwise, a GFCI will work fine without it.

You can twist the wires before using a wire nut, but it’s not necessary. Electricians often twist wires before using a wire nut, which can help secure the connection and enhance electrical contact between wires. You can decide whether or not to twist the wires beforehand, or consult a local electrician if you need  professional opinion.
