I have been involved in trades since the early 1990's. I returned to college, at the age of 32, to earn a degree in trade sciences and received a B.S. in 2005. I am a Jack of all trades so to speak. if I look at a project and don't feel comfortable that I can do a professional job, I will gladly recommend someone that is qualified for free.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Ultimately, the best device depends on what you’re measuring. A voltmeter only measures volts, while a multimeter measures volts, current, resistance, humidity, and possibly much more, depending on the model. If you think you’ll need to measure more than volts, consider investing in a multimeter so you have a tool that can help you with various household projects.

Yes, the National Electrical Code (NEC) requires that outdoor Christmas lights be plugged into a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet to prevent hazardous electrical shocks or an electrical fire. It’s a code violation to plug outdoor Christmas lights into a non-GFCI outlet, so be sure to follow these guidelines for a safe and successful installation.

Unfortunately, aluminum wiring can overheat, leading to failing connections, splices, and even house fires. If your home has aluminum wiring, hire a local electrician to conduct a thorough inspection. While the safest option is to replace everything with copper wire, that can be very expensive. In some cases, your pro will be able to pigtail the connections by adding a short section of copper wire to each end of the aluminum wire. This is more budget friendly, but is only appropriate for certain homes.

Yes, you should shut off the power before wiring your doorbell. Even though a doorbell has low voltage, you are still at risk of harm if you choose to rewire a doorbell with the electricity on. There may be other wires present near your doorbell wiring that could have a higher voltage. If you accidentally come in contact with live wires, you could be seriously harmed or even electrocuted. 

Standard electric water heaters (about 40 gallons) typically need a 30-amp circuit breaker. But if you have a newer model, a tankless water heater, or one that’s more energy efficient, you’ll likely need a higher amperage to power it. 

Having the right size circuit breaker for your water heater is an important part of making sure it heats water efficiently and runs safely. A licensed electrician can help you navigate your options, and determine what you need for your new water heater.
