"James G from Mid America Lightning Protection is very knowledgeable about lightning rods and how to protect a home. I would recommend Mid America Lightning Protection to friends and family. I feel a good lightning rod system is essential for protecting my home in Fayetteville, NC, especially since we have so many thunder and lightning storms. If you have trees near your house, a lightning rod system seems to be especially important. Mid America Lightning Protection was able to get my lightning rod system installed quickly and with minimal disruption to my tenants."

"William, the owner came within days to give us an estimate. He was able to use parts of antique lighting rods that my husband had collected. We have an old house and we wanted something that would complement our house. They came the next business day and did the install. William was the nicest man and a pleasure to work with!"

"The problem turned out to be a burned out small electric door switch. I believe the price was way too expensive for the service performed and the price of the door switch. What more can I say? It got done."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The number of outlets and lights you can safely run on a single circuit depends on the circuit's amperage and local electrical codes. A general rule is to allow one outlet or light fixture per 1.5 amps, keeping the total load under 80% of the circuit breaker's capacity. For example, a 15-amp circuit can typically support up to eight outlets or lights, while a 20-amp circuit can accommodate up to ten. Always consider the combined power usage of all connected devices and fixtures to prevent overloading. For specific guidelines and to ensure safety, it is best to consult local electrical codes or a licensed electrician.

No, it doesn’t matter which of the two wires goes on each of the two switch terminals. Just be sure to put the ground wire in the correct terminal. The ground wire is either green, bare copper, or green with a yellow stripe. The other wires are hot wires and are typically black. They can be used interchangeably.

Labor, materials, job complexity, and urgency affect costs for switches and outlets; expect from $150 for simple sets to $600+ for significant upgrades.

Home power is measured in kilowatt-hours, commonly expressed as kWh. The average home uses between 800 and 1,000 kWh per month. Peak usage (and highest bills) occurs in the middle of summer and the depths of winter. Keeping on top of your usage during these crucial months will lower your annual average usage considerably. 

Switching the hot and neutral wires in an outlet or receptacle, a condition known as reverse polarity, is dangerous. While the outlet will still function and provide power, it creates a significant electrical shock hazard because anything plugged into it will remain electrified even when switched off. If you touch a conductive part of the appliance, such as the metal components of a toaster, you could receive an electric shock.
