"Starlight Electric did a fantastic job on the electric part of my current home improvement project, and even better they did it for an affordable price. They took the time to explain what they were doing and spent the extra effort to make sure even the little things were done right. We will be hiring Starlight Electric for all our electrical needs."

"I called Starlight Electric and they were to my house in 2 hours. Diagnosed and fixed the issues I was having within 2 hours. The price and customer service were great but most of all they were very clean which was very important to my wife. I will be calling them for another electrical needs I need in the future."

"We told him before scheduling the work that our ceilings were high and he would need a 12' ladder.  When he got to our house, without ladder, he wanted us to go rent one while he waited, which we decided not to do.  The promotion that we bought was 2 hours of electrical service, to which we got about an hour's worth of re-connecting a ground in one light fixture.  He told us to call him when we had a ladder rented and he would come back to install the other light fixture, but we decided to just do it on our own.

"Rob has built an awesome business of providing custom lighting for the winter holiday season. Rob knows what he is doing and is very good at providing a display that meets your needs and expectations. He knows what is needed for electrical outlets and if you need more outdoor outlets, he will specify what is needed for your electrician. From that point he provides the lights based on your preference for color and size. He installs the lights, maintains them and will fix any problems if a string goes out. He then will remove the lights after the season. His prices are fair and I have found them reasonable. I didn't give him 5 stars, because after Thanksgiving he gets so busy, that he can't always handle new clients. He works at least 22 hours a day from Thanksgiving till Christmas, very little sleep he honestly tries to get to everyone. I have advised him to limit the number of new clients he takes for installations after Thanksgiving. He continues to think that he can install one more display, but as you read the other reviews, that sometimes doesn't happen. I have also advised him that he needs more sleep! So try to get your installation scheduled before Thanksgiving!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If a 240V appliance is connected to a 120V outlet, the lower voltage will cause that appliance to receive insufficient power. This may result in reduced performance, malfunctions, or even damage to the appliance's components. Depending on the size of your electrical circuit, you’ll likely need to reset a tripped circuit breaker at the very least.

Yes, the National Electrical Code (NEC) requires that outdoor Christmas lights be plugged into a ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet to prevent hazardous electrical shocks or an electrical fire. It’s a code violation to plug outdoor Christmas lights into a non-GFCI outlet, so be sure to follow these guidelines for a safe and successful installation.

Wiring can last anywhere from 50 to 70 years, but all kinds of mishaps can occur that reduce the lifespan of your electrical wiring, including severe weather conditions, pests, and even faulty wiring. Keeping a preventative maintenance scheduling and hiring an electrician for an annual electrical inspection will keep your wiring system around for as long as possible.

You’ll need to locate and hire an electrician near you if there’s an electrical project you don’t feel comfortable tackling yourself. Generally, look for a contractor that specializes in the type of appliance or component that you need help with. For wiring, outlets and similar projects, a general electrician is your best bet. For larger remodels, a general contractor will often take care of electrical projects via subcontractors.

Volts and watts aren’t directly convertible units—they measure different aspects of electricity. Volts measure electrical potential, while watts quantify the power. The relationship between the two is defined by the equation: Power (watts)= Voltage (volts) x Current (amperes). In other words, the product of volts and amps results in watts, but there is no fixed conversion of volts into watts.
