"I went on Home Advisor for help contacting an electrician. David from Bay Electric of Northern Michigan LLC contacted me about 2 hours later. David came to my house a couple days later, to go over what my needs were. My project was to upgrade my electric box from fuse panel to breaker box, upgrade electrical service from 60 amp to 100 amp, and install electrical service to a new pole barn. David gave me an estimate which I accepted. David did the whole job including permits, scheduling with Consumers Power, final inspection.etc. David also supplied wire, 2 breaker boxes, and everything needed. Very professional, friendly, and complete service. I highly recommend this company. The job was completed in 1 day. David is coming back in Feb. to connect my generator to whole house service for when power outages occur."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

There are several indicators that a single-pole switch is bad: the switch is warm or hot to the touch, sparks are sometimes present when turning the switch on or off, you hear a buzzing sound or other weird noise coming from the switch, the connected light flickers when you turn on the switch, and the light doesn't turn on at all with the switch. If you notice any of these, replace the switch or call a pro straight away.

The total cost to install a 120V outlet will depend on the type of outlet you choose, labor costs, and any customizations. Standard 120 volt outlets usually cost $3 to $5 each. But say, for example, you customize your 120V outlets with USB ports, you’ll end up paying a bit more at $13 to $22 per outlet. When it’s all said and done, you can expect to pay around $175 for each new 120V outlet and $125 each for replacement.

If the fan doesn’t have a switch, connect the white wire from the ceiling to the white wire from the fan; connect the green wire to the ground wire; connect both black wires; and connect both blue wires. If yours has a switch, the white and green wires are connected the same way. However, connect the ceiling’s red wire to the light’s black wire and the ceiling’s black wire to the fan’s black wire. 

To install an outlet from existing wiring, you’ll need to choose a location where you can already access existing wiring. The easiest way to do this is to install an outlet on the other side of the wall of an existing outlet. 

Since the wiring is already in place, all you have to do is connect a new cable to the existing wiring and then connect the correct wires through the wall—to the new electrical outlet. Place your new outlet into the opening in the wall and then connect the correct wires to the appropriate terminal screws.

A piggyback circuit breaker, also known as a tandem or double-stuff breaker, combines two separate circuits into a single slot in a breaker panel. This design allows adding more circuits without a larger panel, making it a space-saving solution. Each breaker in the piggyback unit operates independently, protecting two circuits in one standard breaker slot. This is especially useful in older panels with limited space for additional breakers.
