"The service team was very thorough in explaining the steps of my two fans that were to be installed and the electrical outlet install, all costs were upfront and visible. They covered my furniture and swept the floors after the job was completed, I am very happy with Knees Electric. I will certainly use them again and recommend this company to others should the opportunity arise. I love my new fans!"

"Cole from Mister Sparky was incredibly friendly and professional. He was able to diagnose and fix the issues with my outdoor & garage electrical outlets in less than half an hour. Cole went through the steps he took to determine the problem and explained everything to me in layman's terms. I highly recommend Cole Birney and Mister Sparky for your electrical needs."

"Ryan did an amazing job on our outdoor lighting and also on lighting inside of our garage. He was prompt, so very kind and extremely knowledgeable. The work was done quickly and efficiently. The price was very fair and Ryan even cleaned everything up! All in all it was a wonderful experience. Everything looks great. We recommend him wholeheartedly and plan to give his name to our friends. It is wonderful when you find someone who takes pride in his work! The absolute best! AAA+++😌"

"Gary did a superb job of installing our generator and also helping us redo our circuit breaker box that was a mess. The system has worked flawlessly now for three years. We are so thankful for his partnership and referred him to many people in our neighborhood - which I think have also had similar positive experiences."

"I feel so much better knowing that I have protection now after the lightning strike we got. This company was professional and before something happens to your home or property I suggest you look into hiring them your home is definitely worth more than it cost to install protection"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

For a 200-amp underground service, you need a minimum of #2/0 American Wire Gauge (AWG) copper or #4/0 AWG aluminum or copper-clad wire. Don’t forget that, at minimum, you’ll need to use a 1 1/2-inch schedule 40 or 80 PVC conduit to successfully run a 200-amp underground service.

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.

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

In most cases, line wires are located at the bottom of a panel or device, while load wires are located at the top. Line wires are generally black, while load wires are typically red or black. To tell for sure, you can use a multimeter or volt pen to test the wire. A live or line wire will always carry a charge, while a load wire will only carry a charge when it’s in use.

Burnt outlets can be caused by things such as faulty wiring, loose connections, or a circuit overload—and yes, they are extremely dangerous. If you notice your outlet is hot or has burn marks, you should shut off the power to it from the circuit breaker and immediately call an electrician.
