"The wind caused a branch to fall off a tree and it pulled the electric meter off the outside of the house leaving the power lines on the ground. I called Bucks Electric and when I told him about the power lines on the ground he rearranged his schedule to come out the next morning./ The job turned out to be more involved than originally thought because the previous owners didn't have the electric service installed correctly. He spent about 11 hours there getting everything put back that way it should be. I will call him the next time I need electric work done"

"Ron Dunaway gave a very realistic quote for a Breaker Box mapping of the house electrical circuits and replacement of some old receptacles and switches. Jose did the actual work, even adjusting some sliding doors that were sticking at no extra charge. Jose was punctual and cleaned up very well. I had some extra work done for nominal charge. I would recommend Ronald Dunaway is Electric for your residential electrical needs."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes—if a breaker is old or damaged, it might not be able to detect power surges or electrical overload. If that happens, the breaker won’t trip. Instead, it will begin to overheat, putting your electrical system at risk of fire or total electrical failure. Circuit breakers don’t last forever, so you can proactively replace old or damaged breakers before they stop working.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

Wiring a light switch wrong can cause a fire if the incorrect wiring causes arcing, meaning the current jumps uncontrolled from one conductor to another. Loose wires or worn wires that are not repaired or replaced can cause arcing. If you’re not 100% sure you can do the job safely, don’t attempt to wire a light switch on your own.

If your fan is ceiling-mounted and will vent through the attic to the outside, you will need an electrician to handle the wiring, and if you need to install ductwork for the first time or replace existing ductwork, you will need an HVAC professional as well.

Full home electrical inspections are mandatory if you’re buying a new home, but if you’re just looking for a safety checkup, you have some flexibility. If you don’t have any concerns and your property is relatively new, a basic inspection is usually sufficient. If it’s been a long time since your home was last inspected, or it’s an older home, a full home inspection can help catch any concerns that may fly under the radar.
