Electrical questions, answered by experts

A house with aluminum wiring doesn't always need a complete replacement but requires careful maintenance and potential safety upgrades. Aluminum wiring can pose fire risks due to its tendency to expand and contract, leading to loose connections. Safety measures include installing aluminum-compatible outlets, applying anti-oxidant paste, or using copper pigtailing at connections. Consulting a licensed electrician for an inspection and necessary updates can ensure the wiring meets current safety standards without needing a total replacement.

No. Blue wires and black wires are different. Even though both are used as hot wires, they serve different functions. Black wires are far more common in residential properties. They are always hot, can be positive or negative, and usually carry electricity from a power source to an outlet. Blue wires have a specialized usage in residential properties, generally as traveler wires, and are more common in commercial properties.

The number of outlets you can run off one wire depends on the circuit's amperage and your local electrical codes. Generally, you can have up to eight outlets or light fixtures on a single 15-amp circuit. For a 20-amp circuit, you might accommodate more, but ensuring the total load is within the circuit's capacity is crucial. Always consider the power usage of connected devices to prevent overloading. Consult local electrical codes or a licensed electrician for precise guidelines and safety.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

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.
