"I was really concerned knowing I was going to spend thousands of dollars on this project. What a joy to work with a company who was more concerned about me and my project than they are about their interest in it. From the very start, I was quoted a price for what would work best for my residence. They had a chance to try to upsell me but did not even try. I was already familiar with the variety of models. The crews that did the installation were fantastic. Always courteous, always engaging, but always hard working. Coordination with city inspectors and others who had an interest in the project was done extremely well. I really did not even need to be around while the work was done. When it came time for the final payment, the company would not take it until the generator ran a couple of its weekly test cycles and I was completely happy. The owner of the company even helped me with another minor issue I had and would not accept any payment. Besides the workmanship and professionalism this company scored big points in communication. Each time I called or needed a question answered, the owner of the company either called, emailed or texted me very quickly. It seems today, that getting in touch with anyone is a nightmare. Simply put, I would recommend Electrical Service Providers to anyone who need their service. I can assure you they will be my first call for any other projects or services I require. Thanks to Home Advisor for steering me to this company."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

No, outdoor outlets are not required to be on a separate circuit. However, you should always defer to local electrical codes when making decisions about how to install your new outlet. An experienced local electrician will be able to inform you of all codes and requirements in place at your home.

For a 200-amp underground service, you need a minimum of #2/0 American Wire Gauge (AWG) copper or #4/0 AWG aluminum or copper-clad wire. Don’t forget that, at minimum, you’ll need to use a 1 1/2-inch schedule 40 or 80 PVC conduit to successfully run a 200-amp underground service.

Yes, a bad switch can cause other outlets not to work. If the switch is part of a circuit that controls multiple outlets, a fault in the switch can disrupt the entire circuit. It can happen if the switch is wired incorrectly, has a loose connection, or is damaged. Fixing or replacing the faulty switch can often restore power to the affected outlets

Yes, you can splice electrical wires together to make them longer. If you follow the proper safety protocols and match the correct colors, you can save yourself from getting a brand-new circuit and add length to your wires to get them where they need to go.

Short circuits can cause significant damage to electrical appliances, bodily harm, and potentially death to humans. For this reason, they are a serious occurrence. If you’re unable to find and fix a short circuit on your own, you must reach out to a licensed electrician for help.
