"I recently hired Spartan Electric to perform electrical work at my home, and I would like to share my experience. From the outset, Spartan Electric was prompt in responding to my inquiry. They scheduled an appointment quickly, which I appreciated given the urgency of my electrical issues. Upon arrival, Spartan Electric was punctual and exhibited professionalism, introducing themselves and explaining the work they would be performing. During the assessment of the issues, Spartan Electric took the time to explain the problems I was facing with my electrical system, providing clear insights into what needed to be done. This transparency helped me understand the situation better and made me feel more at ease about the process. The work itself was executed efficiently and to a high standard. They demonstrated a strong knowledge of electrical systems, and I noticed their attention to detail throughout the project."

"Harrington Electric has come to my rescue personally more than once. Most recently, my hot water was on the fritz. Jay came out and got my water heater back up and running by quickly diagnosing a bad breaker and changing it out same day. When I was a property manager, Jay did a number of trouble calls and planned upgrades for me in addition to new installs. I will call him again the next time I need an electrician for sure."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, splicing wires can cause a fire if the splicing is done incorrectly. This is why splicing wires is a task best handled by electricians. One of the most common mistakes made when splicing wires is not using a wire connector. Without a wire connector, electricity flows unsheathed and can result in a home electrical fire.

Unfortunately, a partial power outage without a tripped breaker often means you have a major wiring issue or that the breaker itself is going bad. When the power is out in one room but the breaker is not tripped, you need to call an electrician as soon as possible to identify the cause of the problem and repair it.

A breaker won’t always trip if an outlet burns out. If the outlet is overloaded or has a short circuit, the breaker is designed to trip and discontinue power to the outlet. However, some wiring problems that can burn out an outlet may not cause the breaker to trip, so don’t rely on it as a signal that something is wrong.

Replacing the panel itself takes four to eight hours of work by a professional. However, if associated wiring and related components also require replacement, the labor time increases to 20 to 30 hours. Your electrician can speed up the process by bringing in a team of pros to handle ancillary tasks.

Black is the standard color for hot wires, which transfer electricity to your outlets and switches. Red wires are also hot wires. White (and sometimes gray) wires are considered neutral, delivering power back to the panel. Finally, green wires, which are sometimes bare copper, are ground wires, used to ground an electrical circuit and prevent electrocution.
