"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."

"10/10 would highly recommend. After struggling and multiple attempts to have a chandelier and sconces installed, Joe immediately came to the rescue. He and his team were beyond professional and the communication and scheduling were a breeze. Our entryway looks amazing and we will absolutely be utilizing their services in the near future!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Any light bulbs made from toxic materials, such as CFL bulbs and fluorescent light tubes, should not be thrown in the garbage. These bulbs need to be sent to hazardous waste collection sites run by your municipality or sent through a specialized mail-back recycling program. Earth911 allows you to search and find a recycling location near you.

If you’re someone who likes to tinker around the house and make DIY repairs, a multimeter or voltmeter can be a great tool to have around, especially if you’re comfortable with electrical repairs. That said, if working with electricity feels out of your depth, you don’t need to invest in a multimeter. Reach out to an electrical pro for any electrical work you need done if any part of you is hesitant about a project.

You can use a double-pole switch for a regular light fixture, but it's unnecessary and won’t be the most efficient choice. A single-pole switch works perfectly for standard lights. Double-pole handle high-power appliances that require both hot wires to be disconnected. Using a single-pole switch for regular lights is more cost-effective, simpler, and more common in residential settings.

An electrician can handle wiring issues with the garage door opener, like faulty connections, circuit problems, or sensor malfunctions, but they’re not the right person to hire for mechanical repairs. Garage door specialists handle things like broken springs, tracks, and panels, while electricians step in if there’s an issue with power supply, motor function, or safety sensors that aren’t responding correctly.

The American Wire Gauge system calculates wire size diameters using the complicated formula D(AWG)=.005·92((36-AWG)/39) inch. A simpler rule of thumb is that every six-gauge decrease doubles the wire diameter, and every three-gauge decrease doubles the wire’s cross-sectional area. On the other hand, wavenumbers are typically measured in reciprocal meters (1/m or m−1) or reciprocal centimeters (1/cm or cm−1).
