"Copper Electric did outstanding work at my home. Brian (the owner) and his employee Roger were courteous, friendly, and very helpful. My wife and I had a list of several electrical repairs that needed to be done, and Copper finished them all in about two hours (replacing a couple of faulty outlets; upgrading a stairwell light switch; installing an exterior light at the kitchen door). I highly recommend them."

"This is a great company and my first-time experience with them was outstanding! I got an immediate reply and Alexis was incredibly knowledgeable and her consultation and expertise solved my problem very quickly. This is the best service I have received bar none! I highly recommend them and will surely use them in the future for any electrical issues I have. See below for more details. I had a major issue getting into my outdoor circuit breaker box and it was wedged under a tip meter box and I had a tripped GFI in my kitchen. Alexis was able to advise me on how to safely access the breaker panel without damaging the outer box, which was almost impossible to open. Alexis talked me through the process saving me time and the expense of having one the electricians making a trip to just open my breaker box. Thank you Alexis!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Electric fences use very little energy and shouldn’t cause any surprises on your next energy bill; You may only notice an extra couple of dollars on the bill. While electric fences don’t consume much energy, they still need it. If you have a power outage after a storm, your electric fence will likely stop working.

No. Do not use a 14-gauge wire on a 20-amp outlet. A certified licensed electrician would know that the National Electrical Code (as per Section 240.4(D) subsection 3) requires 14-gauge wires to be used with a maximum amplitude of 15. Therefore, you should only use 12-gauge wires on 20-amp outlets.

You can use both LED and incandescent bulbs in an incandescent fixture as long as the bulb base is the right size. Never use a higher wattage than what the fixture recommends. However, it’s usually safe when transitioning to LED bulbs because they typically have a lower wattage than their incandescent counterparts.

To check if doorbell wires are live, use a non-contact voltage tester. Hold the tester near the wires; if it lights up or beeps, the wires are live. Always ensure the power is off at the breaker box before handling any wiring. If you don't have a voltage tester, consider getting one or consulting a professional to ensure safety.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.
