Electrical questions, answered by experts

You shouldn’t try to touch the electric fence, as it will shock you. Typically, the shock is low enough to be uncomfortable to humans or animals that come into contact with the fence. But an electric fence with high voltage, or a faulty fence, could shock you and cause serious injuries when touched.

The C-wire connects a smart thermostat to an HVAC panel and ensures the thermostat stays powered and connected to the Wi-Fi. Newer thermostats and newer HVAC systems come with a C-wire installed. Most, but not all, smart thermostats require a C-wire to work properly. Older thermostat models that aren’t “smart” don’t require a C-wire. 

Homeowners should avoid replacing a circuit breaker without turning it off. While you technically can replace a circuit breaker without turning off the main breaker—and professionals can and do—it’s only safe for electricians to use this process. Working with a live panel is extremely dangerous if you don’t have experience working with electricity. Always follow safety measures to avoid electrical shock.

You should aim to replace your electrical outlets every 15 years, although some GFCI outlets can last as long as 25 years. On the other hand, outlets can go bad much earlier if:

  • The wiring is in poor condition.

  • Your circuit is overloaded.

  • There are loose plugs in the outlet. 

  • If the outlet wasn’t installed properly. 

  • If the outlet wasn’t grounded. 

Breakers are designed to trip and be reset, so there’s no countdown to when it will malfunction. The danger lies in a break tripping multiple times in a row without—well, a break. The breaker and the wires need time to cool down after an overload. Multiple tripping in short succession exacerbates the problem that breakers are preventing, overheating the electrical components and causing damage. That damage can extend to the breaker itself, so a breaker that trips a lot in a short timespan may trip accidentally afterward.
