"I hired Rob Heiser to install 7 new light fixtures and a post light on my home's exterior. He also installed a path lighting system and a brush box on the outside of my house to connect outdoor speaker cables to my Sonance system. Rob and his sons did an excellent job and were extremely professional. He performed the job exactly as I asked and did a great job cleaning and organizing all the removed fixtures and trash before they left. I would highly recommend Heiser Electric."

"I had such a great experience with Alton. From the moment I called He was friendly, professional, and quick to schedule an appointment. He arrived on time, introduced himself politely, and took the time to explain what needed to be done before starting the work. He worked efficiently and I have to give him his bonus points for cleaning up afterwards. Before he left he made sure everything was working perfectly. I really appreciated how knowledgeable he was and how he answered all my questions in a way I could understand. I would without a doubt recommend powerhouse electrical to anyone in need of electrical work!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The safest option is to let a technician conduct the inspection. However, if you are certain that the capacitor failed and you take all precautions to avoid electric shock, you can take a look yourself. Usually, you can open the front panel of the unit and use a flashlight to find the small capacitor cylinder. It should have a sticker on it that provides its product number, capacity, and similar information that you can note when talking to a contractor.

In the case of electrical overflow, an ungrounded outlet should trip the circuit breaker, staving off dangerous scenarios. However, this is not always the case, especially if the wires and circuit breaker are worn down or damaged in some way. Ungrounded wires melt over time as they are introduced to more and more electricity. In other words, a circuit breaker offers protection in most instances but not always, and that’s where the danger lies with ungrounded outlets.

Yes. Like other trained specialists, electricians need to be licensed in their state of operation, and carry specific kinds of insurance required by that state, which usually includes general liability insurance and surety bonds. When choosing an electrician, always pay attention to these details, and avoid electricians who can’t offer proof. When it comes to wiring, you want experienced, trained pros doing the work.

Smart light switches are designed to be compatible with most lights and traditional home wiring, but there are several key factors to check. First, verify your home's wiring, as some smart switches require a neutral wire to operate, which may not be present in older houses (often built before 1985). Always check the wiring requirements for the specific model you choose. Second, consider your light bulbs; while smart switches work with almost any light, using a dimming feature requires dimmable bulbs, such as dimmable LEDs. Finally, ensure you have the necessary network connection. Most smart switches need a Wi-Fi connection for remote control, but some older models might use other standards like ZigBee, which would require a compatible hub.

A 100 amp electrical service panel can't convert into a 200 amp panel simply by switching the breakers or adding circuits. Upgrading from 100 to 200 amps typically requires replacing the circuit box and updating the electrical service coming into the house. Your electrician will handle the details of the project to ensure a safe and thorough installation.
