Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, overheating outlets can cause fires, even if nothing is plugged in at the time. If your outlet is too hot, turn off the circuit breaker, unplug everything, and let it cool down before troubleshooting the issue. Fortunately, outlet fires are rare, but if a fire starts, suppress it with a Class C fire extinguisher or baking soda—or leave the area immediately and call the fire department.

You shouldn’t hook up a solar panel directly to a battery. That can damage the solar battery and your appliances over time. Instead, install a charge controller between your solar panel and solar battery. Charge controllers regulate voltage, prevent overcharging, and minimize the amount of electrical current to protect your battery from voltage spikes.

Canless lights are often better for modern homes due to their slim design, easier installation, and energy efficiency. They fit in tight spaces and require less ceiling depth. Can or recessed lights provide a more traditional look and are better for high ceilings or spaces needing a stronger, more focused light. They require more installation work and ceiling space. 

Ultimately, the choice depends on your needs: opt for canless lights for easy installation and energy savings, or choose can lights for a classic look and robust lighting in larger areas.

In the United States, home outlets support a standard 15 amps, but you can upgrade per outlet if necessary. Most single-family residential homes have a maximum overall amp rating, usually 100 to 200 amps. Very old houses may have less than 100 amps, but that’s rare. Large homes often come with amp services above 200 amps to support modern lifestyles.

If you find the power cables for your appliances are too short, there are ways to extend them for the cost of just the extra wiring you need. Simply cut and strip your wires, solder them together, and cover them using heat shrink tubing. Not everyone has a soldering tool on hand, so if you’re looking to extend in a pinch, an extension cord, power bar, or surge protector can do the job just fine.
