"They fixed a potential hazardous issue with my wiring, added a new plug in my garage, and balanced my electrical load, which fixed a lot of problems with fuses blowing and power dips. Excellent work, highly recommended!"

"WOW!!! I received a call from Randy within minutes of requesting quotes from local electricians. He was very pleasant, friendly and smart as all get out. What do I appreciate the most? Randy listened, asked questions and gave me a verbal solution to the smoke detector issue that was driving this family up the walls. Who does that? Randy does!!! Did I mention WOW!!!? Randy is amazing! He also gave me a great quote, along with some great information, regarding my kitchen light fixture. I'm so excited to be scheduling with Randy in the near future. In my book, Randy/Bretco Electric Company is "The Answer" to all things electrical. He has even earned a placed at our table for Christmas dinner and I'm almost grateful enough to actually cook...lol Where is the option for an A+++ rating?"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

An AC disconnect, also known as a switch box or fuse box, is a safety switch that allows the AC’s electrical supply to be turned off from the outside, usually done by a mechanical contractor coming to work on your unit. The box is protected from the weather by a cover or may be designed as a pull-out unit. Your local code determines where the AC disconnect must be mounted, but it's usually close to your outdoor AC unit.

You can move an electric meter outside if you currently have one inside your home. This is considered a larger move, so be prepared to pay on the upper end of $600 to $1,200. When hiring a professional electrician to move your electric meter, be sure to specify its current location and desired location, including pictures if possible.

You should always turn off a breaker whenever electrical work is being done. This step can prevent electrical shock and injury. Also, if a breaker is repeatedly tripping, it can mean there is an electrical overload, and it should be shut off. You should contact an electrician to figure out the cause. Make sure to review how to turn off your circuit breaker safely if you do it yourself, and follow safety precautions to avoid severe injuries.

Hire an electrician the same way you would an employee. Ask questions and look for a good fit. Streamline the process by using these questions to ask an electrician. It's also common to ask for a quote in writing. Don’t forget to provide all the project details to ensure there are no surprises or opportunities for added fees.

Yes, an AFCI (arc fault circuit interrupter) outlet also has line and load terminals, although it uses different technology than a GFCI and offers a different kind of protection. AFCIs monitor for internal arc faults, a type of wiring problem that can start an electrical fire.
