"The service went well. Tim's was able to fit us into the schedule within a few days after contacting him. The team was kind, courteous and professional. They arrived first thing in the morning and went straight to the project. I would hire them again for other electrical needs."

"I recently had my electrical panel upgraded, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the experience. From the first conversation to the final inspection, everything was handled professionally and with care. As a homeowner, it's important to me to know the job is being done right, and I felt completely comfortable throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything, answered all my questions, and made sure I understood what was being done and why. The work was clean, organized, and completed when he said it would be. It's not often you find someone who is reliable, shows up when they say they will, and takes real pride in their work. The new panel looks great, and it's a huge relief knowing my home's electrical system is now updated and safe. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing electrical work done. Great guy, honest, knowledgeable, and someone I wouldn't hesitate to call again for future projects."

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

The life expectancy of a circuit breaker is 30 to 40 years. However, how long your circuit breaker lasts depends on the condition of your electrical equipment, the amperage, your electrical consumption, and more. A breaker box that frequently trips from overload will last much shorter than a breaker box with the proper amperage for the number of devices and appliances in use. If your circuit breaker trips frequently, and you have also increased your electrical consumption, it may be worth upgrading your electrical panel to extend your electrical system’s lifespan—and save you the hassle of frequent power trips.

A two-way switch is also called a single-pole or single-throw switch. These switches only have an on-and-off function and only control a single light or series of lights wired together. A three-way switch has no “on” or "off” position and works with a second switch in the circuit to control a single light or light series from two locations.

The safest option is to let a technician conduct the inspection. However, if you are certain that the capacitor failed and you take all precautions to avoid electric shock, you can take a look yourself. Usually, you can open the front panel of the unit and use a flashlight to find the small capacitor cylinder. It should have a sticker on it that provides its product number, capacity, and similar information that you can note when talking to a contractor.

A pigtail is the only safe way to connect an electrical device to more than one circuit wire. Connecting multiple wires to a single screw terminal is extremely dangerous and must never be done. Many electricians will opt for pigtails even when there are multiple screw terminals available so that the device in question won’t halt the flow of downstream current when a problem arises. 

While it’s not mandatory unless you’re purchasing a home, it is important to schedule regular home electrical inspections for safety and to maintain your house’s value. Inspections can reduce fire risk and can help save money on insurance premiums. They can also catch problems before they start, saving money on repairs down the line.
