"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"

"Brian the owner was a great communicator and gave us a bid quickly. His crew was amazing and Michael the foreman and the team did everything on our list and then some. I would definitely hire Wert Electric again. Thanks Wert Electric I now have the lighting I needed for my aging eyes."

"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

You don’t need an electrician to change an outlet—but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t hire one. Working with electricity can be dangerous, not only for you but also for your home and the members of your household. There’s the risk of electrocution, poor wiring burnout, and electrical fire. When you hire a licensed electrician, you’ll have peace of mind knowing that your electrical outlets are installed correctly and up to code.

Wire color codes vary depending on the region. For instance, the United Kingdom has updated its wiring codes to match Europe's color system. The United States wiring color code is different, as is Australia's. Because the color code system isn’t universal, it’s essential to hire an experienced electrician to perform any electrical work to ensure it is done correctly.

The purpose of pigtail wiring is to connect multiple wires to a single terminal on a device. Pigtailing involves splicing a short length of wire, called a pigtail, into the multiple wires that need to be connected. The pigtail wire is then connected to the single terminal on the device, allowing all of the wires to be connected at once. This practice helps to simplify the wiring process, reduce clutter, and ensure a secure and reliable electrical connection.

The common, marked as COM or C, is one of the terminals found in your light switch. It houses the live wire that supplies the input voltage. The other terminals, marked as L1 or L2, are the outputs to the light fixtures. Depending on if you have a one-way or two-way switch, you’ll either have just an L1 terminal or both an L1 and L2 terminal.

There are many signs it is time to replace an electrical panel, starting with flickering lights. Other tell-tale signals include overheating appliances, light fixtures that cause an electric shock, hissing or crackling from the breaker box, burned or blackened spots near the breaker box, and breakers that trip whenever activating power-hungry appliances like microwaves.
