"Very impressed with their work and they went above and beyond. After getting some ridiculously overpriced quotes from 2 other companies Nordeast Electric gave me an honest quote that was a fraction of the price."

"Adam at Go Electric was awesome to work with! We wanted to add lights and outlets to our dark kitchen and living room. From start to finish Adam provided us his positive professional opinion to help match the ideas we had in mind. His can-do attitude and strong communication made him a 10/10 hire. We recommend Go Electric to any friends or family that need electrical help!"

"Anchor Electric is going to be my go-to for electrical work in my home. As a new home buyer, I felt overwhelmed by the electrical work that needed to be done. Dan was efficient and confident. He upgraded our panel which made our home feel safer. We already are working with Dan on troubleshooting a different issue. I would definitely recommend Anchor Electric/Dan!"

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

How many string lights can be on one outlet depends on a number of varying factors, including the total wattage of your circuit, the type of lights, the energy needs of the lights, and cord specifications. It’s better to play it safe here to protect your circuit, so figure out the max wattage of your circuit, compare that to the lights, and move on from there. Generally speaking, LED string lights require less energy than incandescent bulbs, translating to a higher number of lights per circuit. 

A breaker won’t always trip if an outlet burns out. If the outlet is overloaded or has a short circuit, the breaker is designed to trip and discontinue power to the outlet. However, some wiring problems that can burn out an outlet may not cause the breaker to trip, so don’t rely on it as a signal that something is wrong.

The NEC requires electrical outlets be installed in a kitchen that has a sink 12 inches wide and 24 inches deep. According to the code, that outlet must be within 2 feet of the kitchen sink. Bathrooms must have at least one electrical outlet, it must be GFCI, and it must be within 3 feet of the bathroom sink.

Simple moves on the same base or within a few feet will not take long, roughly three to four hours. Larger moves onto a new wall or transitioning a box from inside to outside will take 8 to 12 hours to complete. Ask your electrician for a time estimate prior to installation.

Choosing a unit with higher BTUs can use more electricity if the BTUs are more than what’s necessary for your room size. However, choosing an AC with BTUs that match the size of your room or house, your unit will cool your space efficiently. On the flip side, choosing a system with not enough BTUs can cause the system to work harder to try to cool the space, leading to more electricity consumption and higher energy bills.
