"I couldn't have asked for a better experience. They were hired to replace the main electrical panel/breakers at my elderly mother's home. Roni, the electrician, was a wonderful communicator, and was very knowledgeable and thorough in completing the job and in putting her at ease. The price was very reasonable. I will be using Nasr Electric in my own home, as well as recommending them to all my friends and family in the DMV area."

"We had our electric box replaced, an outdoor light installed and an outdoor 50 amp outlet installed for our camper and electric vehicle. Greenleaf arrived on time and had everything done on time and in a professional and friend manner. Had some weather related issues but Greenleaf communicated everything and had everything rescheduled in a timely manner. Would highly recommend their service. Definitely using them for any future electrical needs."

"I needed an electrical outlet under my bath vanity in order for the plumber to install a point of use tankless water heater. Mark was quick to respond with a quote that was much less expensive than another electrician and didn't need the extra "fluff" that I would have been charged. Came on time and the work was done with precision (the plumber even admired the work!) :-)"

"From start to finish, Long Electric had our backs. We didn't have to hire sub-contractors or to obtain permits -- Long Electric took care of everything. Our go-to person in the main office, Melissa, answered all of our questions and kept us apprised of everything we needed to know. Everyone we had contact with throughout the installation project treated us with the utmost in professionalism. Not only will I call upon them for future electrical needs, I have referred Long Electric to a friend who is also interested in a whole house generator."

"I had a wonderful experience with Electrical Connections. My project ended up being much larger than I anticipated it would be and they were excellent at explaining everything and helping me understand what needed to be done. Customer service was top notch and clearly a priority for everyone I talked to from the scheduler to the owner of the company. Brian was excellent and stayed until the job was done even though it made an extra long day for him. Highly recommended!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

GFCI outlets help prevent dangers from ground faults that can cause shocks. This is a different issue that a ground circuit can’t fully address. It’s best to use GFCI outlets combined with ground circuits for complete protection for you and your electronics.

Moving an electrical meter in your home depends on what your electric utility company allows. If you only want to move it a few inches, that may be no problem or only incur light fees. If you want to move it a significant distance, you may need to arrange a utility inspection and get permission, or your utility company may prevent it altogether.

Yes, you can run an above-ground electrical conduit and stay within National Electrical Code safety guidelines. Just make sure you check the code requirements of your project with the local building regulations office. You should work with a local electrician to complete this type of project due to the personal safety hazards.

Yes, a hot or overheating outlet is a fire hazard and can cause a fire. An outlet becoming hot indicates an electrical problem, such as an overloaded circuit, loose connections, or a faulty component. The heat from these issues can ignite nearby flammable materials like curtains or furniture. If you notice an outlet is hot to the touch, turn off the power at the circuit breaker, unplug any connected devices, and consult a qualified electrician. If a fire does start, use a Class C fire extinguisher or baking soda to suppress it, or evacuate immediately and call the fire department.
