"Marsh River traveled over an hour to come out to my house to redo my electrical from the panel to the pole, put the wires underground (because they were not before) put a new electrical box and meter on the pole. Did a great job and knew exactly what they were doing! Just a side note: I thought the reason the outlets on the back wall of my room didn’t work was because of mice eating our wires. Whoever did the electric before must not have done it correctly because the outlets are now working!"

"Mike was super responsive and very helpful when picking out a new thermostat for our heated floor. The two electricians that came to the house to install the thermostat and a new chandelier were prompt, courteous, and great to work with. We will definitely be recommending Payne Electric to others and look forward to working with them again."

"I had a list of lots of small projects and they methodically went down the list and got everything done in a day! There was one project giving us some trouble he took a look and came up with a totally different solution which saved time and money. They did an excellent job and I have all really recommended them to a friend. Best of all they came in under the estimate. I will be using them again for sure , Thanks HomeAdvisor, an electrician is hard to find but a good, reliable and trustworthy Electrician nearly impossible!!"

"After one of the snowstorms we had this last winter, we found ourselves without electricity. A tree had fallen across our power line, ripping the electric meter off the house and hurling it across the lawn. Perhaps it is needless to say that we felt like the helpless prey of the Universe. On the advice of a friend, we called C. B. Electric. This company proved to be fast and reliable. Their charges were reasonable. They were polite, really nice and reassuring people. They told us when they would be here, and they came when they said they would, which was only a day or two later. They immediately started a search for a replacement meter. When they got that, their work was fast and was performed with what I like to call "snappy exactitude." We absolutely could not have been better pleased. Electricians just don't get better than this."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

When power is restored to your home, the transfer switch will return to utility power after about 10 seconds. Your generator will then run for a few more minutes to cool down before automatically shutting itself off. In most situations, your home will stay powered by the generator for at least five minutes, even after your power comes back on.

Moving an electrical outlet typically costs between $25 and $300. The final price depends on several factors, including the type of outlet, the condition of your existing wiring, and the state of your walls. For example, working on exposed walls without drywall is easier and less expensive for an electrician. However, if the walls are finished, the cost may increase to account for necessary repairs afterward. It's recommended to consult a professional for a precise quote based on your specific situation.

A larger heater requires a larger breaker—unless there’s one already installed. The longer answer to this question is more nuanced. Do you place demands on the heater at the same time as running other heavy-duty appliances like ovens and washing machines? Do you live in an older home that may not have considered the higher electrical demands we have now? Breakers need to be sized at 125% of the load. To find that load, you should call a local electrical pro.

While the National Electrical Code (NEC) does not set a strict limit, a common guideline is to have a maximum of eight outlets or receptacles on a 15-amp circuit. This rule of thumb, which equates to about one outlet per 1.5 amps, helps keep the total electrical load safely below 80% of the circuit breaker's capacity. It is important to consider the power demands of any devices or appliances that will be plugged in, as overloading a circuit can lead to tripped breakers or create a fire hazard. To ensure the safety and code compliance of your electrical system, consult with a licensed electrician.

Yes, the National Electrical Code (NEC) requires that outdoor Christmas lights be plugged into a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet to prevent hazardous electrical shocks or an electrical fire. It’s a code violation to plug outdoor Christmas lights into a non-GFCI outlet, so be sure to follow these guidelines for a safe and successful installation.
