"Jim was there very promptly and spent two days doing the work. He was very thorough and neat and explained how everything worked when completed.  Jim was very personable and friendly and easy to talk with. He called us a few days later to check on us to see that we were happy and asked if we had any questions. He also stuck with his quotes.
Would definitely hire him again for any future electrical work.

"Highly recommend Doug. He was very quick to respond to my email for a quote-came out right away and gave a quote on the spot when others I called before him still havenâ t gotten a quote back to me even over nearly 2 weeks later. Electricians and contractors donâ t return calls these days or pick up the phone and that was a non issue with Doug which I appreciated. Doug came out within a week and installed and vented a new bathroom fan and switch in our older home and was careful not to damage any of our original tile work. He also installed a new outlet and 4 light fixtures. He was very responsive, professional, and reasonably priced. Will use him again in the future if we have any electrical needs and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a master electrician in the Kalamazoo area. Thanks Doug!"

"I recently hired AAB Electric for some electrical work, and I am extremely pleased with the results. They installed recessed lights and ceiling fans in my home, and the entire process went smoothly. The team was timely, arriving right on schedule, and very friendly, making the experience even better. The installation was done to my complete satisfaction, and everything looks and works perfectly. I will definitely be using their services again in the future and highly recommend them for any electrical work."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

There is no blanket figure for a residential home’s electrical load, since load varies by the size of the home, how many appliances are used, and the efficiency of their electrical systems. Typically, however, it’s safe to assume 40 to 60 amps is the average electrical load of a residential home. 

You can run a small or basic standard-size refrigerator on a 15-amp circuit. But you should plug a modern, standard-size refrigerator into a 20-amp dedicated circuit. The refrigerator needs to be on a dedicated circuit, meaning it is the only appliance and outlet on that circuit breaker. This method prevents tripping the breaker and reduces the chance of an electrical fire. 

Yes, dehumidifiers use a lot of electricity. However, proper humidity also means your home’s temperature remains more stable, thus lowering heating and air conditioning bills. The good news is you shouldn’t need to use a dehumidifier more than a few months per year, so the energy costs won’t be as noticeable as other larger appliances.

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).

GFCI outlets should be clearly labeled with LINE and LOAD labels, with arrows leading to the proper terminals. The line terminals are typically at the top, and the load terminals are typically at the bottom.
