"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."

"I called the owner Randy at 4:00 on a Saturday afternoon about a breaker that kept tripping. He told me he would be out in 45 minutes. He actually showed up in 14 minutes. Immediately diagnosed the problem and had it fixed in less than 30 minutes. Total for work completed was $125, I thought this was a little expensive but then I remembered I'm not only paying for his time but also his experience and expertise! Taking all that into consideration it was a bargain and money well spent. Randy was very personable and professional and I would not hesitate to use him in the future or recommend him to other people. We are. It's small business owners and talked shop for a few minutes. He told me he has 17 years experience as an electrician and has been on his own for a year. If you like supporting small businesses and have any electrical needs Randy is your man! Thanks Randy"

"The service tech came and was very polite. He quickly pointed out the issue. Unfortunately, the issue was with the electrical outlet and not the dryer. He told me what needed to be done to correct the issue and I was then able to buy the parts at the store and fix it."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The best place to put an electrical outlet depends on your needs. A good rule of thumb is to install outlets every 6 feet in large rooms. Hallways over 10 feet long need one electrical outlet minimum. 

If you find yourself needing extra plug-ins for all of your gadgets, you may want to increase the number of electrical outlets in your room. When adding outlets, keep in mind that older homes could have outdated electrical panels. In these cases, you may need a pro to upgrade you from 100-amp to 200-amp service before increasing the power load.

If you need to run a wire from the meter to the breaker box, start by turning off the power using the main switch to avoid injury risks from live wires. Then, locate the ground wire from your meter and connect it to the ground bar of the breaker box. Connect the neutral wire using the same method to improve your circuit efficiency.

Next, locate the hot wires running from the main switch to the meter. To connect them to the correct terminals from meter to breaker, unscrew the nuts of the breaker hotwire terminals, insert the positive hotwire, and ensure it’s firmly attached. Finally, secure the wires with electrical tape and wire tie cables before re-securing your breaker box. Keep in mind that this process can be dangerous, so don’t hesitate to hire a local electrician.

If you've ever tried to run your dishwasher while drying your hair, you’ll understand why dedicated circuits are essential for preventing blown fuses. Appliances that require more electricity than the circuit can handle could blow fuses, trip breakers, overheat, and risk an electrical fire. 

Having a dedicated circuit ensures that your appliance gets the current it needs without overloading the other circuits in your home.

Yes, placing an electrical panel in a bedroom is perfectly acceptable, so long as it meets other space requirements as indicated by OSHA and related agencies. When installed in a bedroom, electricians typically place it in the area directly behind the door swing. This method allows for easy access when conducting electrical panel repairs.

No, it’s not normal. When an outlet is hot, something is wrong. Our tips above may help you pinpoint the problem, but when in doubt, always bring in a qualified electrician to deal with the issue.
