"There is not enough space to write the praises for James Fleming Electrical Contractor, LLC. and his fantastic team; especially Josh Smith. His answering service team is also amazing!!! Jim was the first one to immediately respond to my inquiry on this site. From our first text to our meeting and projected estimate viewing, he was outstanding. Jim not only is a honest tradesman, he is an amazing educator; he explained the why and how for everything. When it was time to get the work completed, I was once again pleased to find his team member, electrician Josh Smith was equally wonderful. Josh has the patience and the knowledge to complete the work to the exact specifications and educated me on the new state standards, the most cost-efficient choices. and about electricity in general!!! As a woman who owns multi homes in this region it was quite comforting working with an electrician that fully understood the needs of my home, my budget and was honest; I completely trust Jim and Josh, I cannot wait to have them start on my next project. THANK YOU AGAIN JIM AND JOSH!!!"

"Our experience went very well. We hired an organization to remove our vermiculite, mold and insulation out of our attic, thus it made sense to have Paciorek Electric install the lights in our living room, kitchen and three fans."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The most common type of electrical outlet is a 3-prong outlet, which has two flat blades (one is wider than the other) and a round grounding pin. Older homes typically have 2-prong outlets that aren’t as safe as more modern options and are generally not up to current electrical codes.  Other outlets you can find in your home include 20A, 125 volt varieties for larger appliances like refrigerators or washing machines. 

There are also GFCI outlets, which protect against electrical shock in wet areas, such as bathrooms and kitchens, and arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) outlets, which protect against electrical fires caused by arcing.

Many homes have a 200-amp service, which requires a 2-inch electrical meter riser. Larger homes or homes that require more energy for several appliances and devices may have a 400-amp service. For 400-amp service, opt for a 4-inch electrical meter riser.

You can check if an electrician is licensed in New York by using the online license verification search tool offered by the New York State Education Department. The database is updated daily and gives you the option of searching by license number, contractor name, or the name of the business.

If you strictly adhere to electrical safety rules, including assuming that a circuit is hot until proven otherwise, and have some knowledge of how an electrical circuit works, you can likely replace a light switch by yourself without too much trouble. However, it's always advisable to call a nearby electrical pro to do the job if you're unsure of any steps necessary to change a light switch. 

How many string lights can be on one outlet depends on a number of varying factors, including the total wattage of your circuit, the type of lights, the energy needs of the lights, and cord specifications. It’s better to play it safe here to protect your circuit, so figure out the max wattage of your circuit, compare that to the lights, and move on from there. Generally speaking, LED string lights require less energy than incandescent bulbs, translating to a higher number of lights per circuit.
