"The project was well planned by Matt and his crew and went very well and smoothly. They were very professional and explained the entire process in installing the electrical gate opener.

Fans are vibrating and extremely loud as to be unusable!, He did NOT enter attic but used a saw that more than likely broke off existing bracing! He the said we should have purchased better fans! We were not even given a choice!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

To prevent a plug from overheating, always ensure that the electrical load connected to the plug does not exceed the plug's capacity. If the plug feels hot to the touch or emits a burning smell, immediately shut off the circuit breaker and unplug all devices from the hot outlet. Prevent electrical fires by avoiding using extension cords or adapters with the plug, as they can cause it to overheat due to increased resistance. Additionally, ensure that the plug is properly inserted into the outlet and that the outlet is not damaged or loose. 

The cost of fixing faulty wiring depends on the type of repair required. Replacing an electrical service line, for example, can cost up to $500. Rewiring an entire house will cost at least several thousand dollars. Replacing old wiring like knob and tube wiring will be even more expensive, but fortunately that kind of outdated wiring is fairly rare. Always get an estimate from a reliable electrician to learn the cost details. 

Some portable cooktops are compatible with standard 120-volt outlets, but most induction (and electric) ranges and stoves need a dedicated 220- or 240-volt circuit and 40 to 50 amps to work. If you are replacing an old electric range with an induction one, you likely already have the proper outlet, but it’s worth checking with a local appliance installation company.

Smart light switches are designed to work with traditional switch wiring, so they should work within your home. However, you will need a Wi-Fi connection to use them properly. Older models may use different connection standards like ZigBee, which must be supported to control them.

There are several signs to look for to determine if a switch is bad. For one, if you notice that the switch is loose, it's good to replace it before it becomes worse. Other signs of failure include a switch that feels excessively warm or hot, a buzzing sound, any occurrence of sparks while operating the switch, flickering lights, or just a general failure to turn the light on or off.
