"Lowest price among multiple quotes and significantly more attention to detail and the least visible and least intrusive installation of new wiring from the existing panel. Would definitely recommend and use Mark H. Anderson Electrical Services again!"

"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!"

Customers say: Quality work

"Long Electric was very efficient and punctual from the time we went over the project to have backup generator installed including some additional custom work. The whole team was a pleasure to work with and their professional approach to everything from prompt communication through the installation process to completing the work was phenomenal to say the least. Before the installation we were concerned about how it would look with all the exposed electrical wiring and plumbing. But they listened to our concerns and suggested ways to complete the installation to put our concerns at ease. The installation turned out great and we are so happy we went with Long Electric."

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

Though they may seem similar at a quick glance, outdoor electrical outlets are different from indoor electrical outlets in that they have extra safety precautions to prevent electrical hazards. These include GFCIs, which some indoor outlets have, and a watertight cover that allows you to use electricity from the outlet even on a rainy day.

Yes, tamper-resistant outlets are designed to be safe for use in homes with children. They feature a spring-loaded shutter that blocks the electrical slots when not in use, which helps protect children from electric shock if they try to insert an object. While they are the safest option available and highly effective, it's important to note that few things are truly 'childproof.' Children may still try to imitate adults by inserting a plug. For this reason, it's best to use tamper-resistant outlets over less effective solutions like plastic covers, which can be removed or pose a choking hazard. Always supervise young children around any electrical outlets or devices.

Using a wire stripper/cutter, strip about 1/2 inch to 1 inch of sheathing from electric wires, depending on the application. A self-adjusting wire stripper/cutter works best, but a standard wire stripper/cutter with holes for different gauges of wire works as well to cut and strip away the sheath without damaging the copper wire inside.

This depends on how many outlets you have and the current status of your electrical system. The cost to ground an outlet clocks in at $75 to $480 per outlet, so multiply that by the number of outlets in your home to arrive at a rough estimate. However, this is for simple projects with no obvious issues with the system. Your final bill could vary widely from your calculations.

If you’re moving wires, installing new wires, or installing new fixtures in the space you’re insulating, then you will need to hire a licensed electrician to do that portion of the job for you. However, if you just intend on replacing old insulation or adding new insulation over existing insulation, then you don’t need to hire one. Your insulation installer will work around wiring, fixtures, outlets, and switches, even if they’re installing fiberglass batts in the voids where wires run. However, you will need an electrician if you suspect a problem with your wiring during the insulation work.
