"Mike and his son did an excellent job wiring our above ground pool and heat pump. His communication, workmanship and professionalism is top notch. We were ghosted and ignored by two other companies so it was a breath of fresh air working with Mike. If I have anymore electrical needs I know who I’m calling."

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

The most common reason a GFCI outlet would trip even when nothing is plugged in is if there’s a problem at the circuit breaker end. This could be an overloaded circuit, with too many appliances plugged into it, or another type of fault. If a GFCI outlet keeps tripping, it can also be because it is faulty and needs replacing.

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.

You’ll need to locate and hire an electrician near you if there’s an electrical project you don’t feel comfortable tackling yourself. Generally, look for a contractor that specializes in the type of appliance or component that you need help with. For wiring, outlets and similar projects, a general electrician is your best bet. For larger remodels, a general contractor will often take care of electrical projects via subcontractors.

The lifespan of an average breaker box is 25 to 40 years, depending on the type and electrical events that occur in your home.

Maintain this essential electrical component by avoiding turning it off and inspecting it regularly for signs of damage.
