"☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ Amazing! I had a panel upgrade on a house over 100 yrs old, and 4 dedicated circuits installed, as well as having it future proofed for things I may have - solar, an electric vehicle, central air, a generac, and an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU/aka Tiny House) They were prompt, courteous, and very reasonably priced, as well informative ‐ gave me a pretty accurate quote upfront And always let me know when they would be over, what they were going to do, and how long it should take them. Only took them a handful of visits. When I need electrical services in the future I will definitely be calling them back! ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆"

"I hired Derek and his colleague to wire up our new hot tub. He was excellent at communicating and providing an estimate before work was started. The quality of work he provided exceeded my expectations. Everything was done neatly, to code, and did not leave a mess at my house. A sprinkler line was damaged during trenching, since we didn't know it was there, and he made the repairs with no questions asked. I would definitely hire him or recommend for electrical work. A+"

"I recently hired Doug with True Line Electric to install a Level 2 EV charger for my wife's Tesla, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the beginning, Doug took the time to explain the installation process and answer all of our questions. What really stood out was his knowledge and attention to detail. He pointed out several areas where people cut corners and explained the potential safety issues those shortcuts can create. That level of expertise gave my wife and I complete confidence that the charger was being installed safely and correctly. In addition to the EV charger, Doug also installed a couple of Nest security cameras for us. As with the charger installation, the work was clean, professional, and done right the first time. If you're looking for an electrician who is knowledgeable, honest, and takes pride in his work, I highly recommend Doug and True Line Electric. We'll definitely be calling him again for future electrical projects."

"I called Superior Power and Lighting because I had a power issue with outlets not working in my garage. No tripped breakers in my panel and everything else working in the house that I knew of. I was worried about possible damage from mice and was concerned about electrical hazards if this was the case. I called and spoke to David and asked if he could send a tech to my home even though it was after hours and would be charged for an emergency call . Instead of just saying yes and sending a tech out, David took the time to ask me questions and run through simple items to check that could be causing my problem. To preface the story, I am very hands on and do a lot of my own work around the house and I do not consider myself as a novice when it comes to electrical wiring or other things. David was able to identify the problem for me (turned out to be a tripped GFCI outlet in a bathroom that was wired with my garage outlets....wow....and I was all squared away. It s great to find people like this in business! I will always call them for future electrical needs and I highly recommend giving them a call if you also need electrical work done. **Residence is in New Hudson, MI"

"From our initial communications I was impressed with Charles' interest in my project. He was quick to respond to review the work to be done and follow up during the quoting process. Upon review of my electrical panel service upgrade (100 amp to 200 amp), and other miscellaneous wiring tasks, he explained how he envisioned the layout and advised of the brand of electrical panel that he would quote for the project. He pulled the permit and coordinated with the local electrical inspector and Consumers Energy to schedule the project. During the installation process, Charles was courteous, professional, and pleasure to work with. I am very pleased with all the work done by Homestead! Are you tired of talking to salesmen/contractors that promise something that their employees/subcontractors are not aware to deliver? Are you looking for good value and quality workmanship? Call Homestead Enterprises for your electrical needs."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If your plug feels hot to the touch, it’s likely a sign of an electrical issue that needs immediate attention. Check for signs of melting or discoloration around the plug, as well as any burning smells or smoke. If you notice any of these signs, immediately unplug any devices and do not use the outlet again until it’s been inspected by a qualified electrician.

You may not always need to hire a local electrician to install a doorbell camera. Wireless doorbell cameras, for instance, are simple enough for the average homeowner to install. They easily attach to your threshold and run on batteries, so no wiring is necessary.

However, wired doorbells with cameras likely require electrical work that should only be attempted by licensed electricians. You’ll need to call a pro if you’re working with a wired doorbell camera.

Be careful not to drop your voltmeter or multimeter. Even a small fall can affect the tool’s ability to measure with accuracy. Always store your tools in their cases in a cool, dark place. Also, avoid touching the probes to each other while they’re connected to a circuit or another electrical component, and never tamper with anything inside the device.

You will need a permit for any electrical work that involves installing or replacing wiring, moving or installing new fixtures, switches, or outlets, hardwiring appliances or HVAC equipment, installing subpanels, and upgrading electrical service. You typically don’t need a permit to have an electrician replace an existing light fixture or electrical box. You can always call your local building department to see if your project needs a permit, but a professional electrician will be able to tell you. In most cases, your professional will pull the permits for you.

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.
