"Ron, our installer, was absolutely wonderful! He arrived on time, was pleasant, and efficient. Ron worked on New Year's Eve, was close to finishing his job, but could have stretched it into the next day. Rather than leaving us "in the dark," he worked until the job was completed that day. We appreciate all the hard work from Ron! We definitely recommend Reinhold for any of your electric needs!"

"Loveland came right out to see our project needs and then provided a reasonable and very understandable estimate. The owners and technicians were so nice. Their service is not just exceptional on-site but their office manager was right on top of keeping all the next steps right on time with the electric company and city inspectors. Loveland also stands by their work and late on the completion day, I found a small issue and they were right back out the next mornin and corrected the issue in 5 minutes. I would strongly suggest using Loveland Electric."

"I requested an estimate online through Angi and Better Business Bureau and was contacted the same day by Hoffman Brothers. They set up an appointment for a free estimate next business day. Hoffman Brothers contacted me before they came . The electrician arrived on time and listened to what problems I was having. To my surprise he not only diagnosed the short in my system and gave me a reasonable quote, he indicated he could fix it there and then. I gave him the go ahead, and had the parts necessary in his truck. He did a great job quickly on the spot and I didnâ t have to wait for an estimate and set up a later appointment. He even looked at another need I had not in the estimate. I recommend this company highly as they do clean fast work at a reasonable price."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If your outlet needs to be reset multiple times, you likely have a problem with the outlet, the reset button, the wiring, or its connected circuit breaker. If the reset button doesn’t work and the circuit breaker isn’t the issue, it’s likely a problem with the outlet or the reset button it’s attached to.

Yes, an AFCI (arc fault circuit interrupter) outlet also has line and load terminals, although it uses different technology than a GFCI and offers a different kind of protection. AFCIs monitor for internal arc faults, a type of wiring problem that can start an electrical fire.

Yes, wire connectors are the better option for securing splices compared to electrical tape. It is not recommended to use electrical tape as it is not secure enough to keep the splices together. Plus, electrical tape is more vulnerable to damage, which can cause a risk of fire over time. 

Most electric water heaters have a built-in shut-off switch, so you can simply turn that to the OFF position. Some water heaters have the switch inside a panel, so you might need to unscrew the panel, remove it, move aside the insulation, and then shut the water heater off. To make sure it’s off, you can also locate the switch for your water heater in your electrical panel and shut the power off there. Most electrical panels have dedicated switches for the water heater, so you can shut off the power without affecting the rest of your home.

Although homeowners can turn off a breaker, it’s vital to follow safety precautions when doing so to prevent serious and potentially fatal injuries. For instance, you want to ensure there is no water on the floor when you touch the breaker and wear protective gear such as safety glasses. Anytime you deal with anything electrical, it’s always best to be as safe as possible.
