Specializing in complete electrical panel up-grades, generator installs to low voltage cable runs and every job in between. I'm Brent Jackson out of S.W. Omaha and CEO of Ferret Electric. I am a third generation Electrician with 15 years experience in the trade myself. My grandfather started Rosenbaum Electric back in '85. After unfortunate and unseen death in the family, I was commanded to the Captain's Chair to keep the bloodline alive. After some life changes that I've made, I've decided to clean-up, change the name and direction of the family "vessel" so to speak. To take the Company back out to open waters and to sit back on the Captain's Chair, and get back into business like a group of Ferrets.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

It's recommended that you only use your circuit breaker for your water heater. Tacking on additional appliances, especially large ones like refrigerators, can overload the circuit and lead to electrical fires. Therefore, it's best to have separate circuits for each major appliance, particularly continuous load appliances, which use a lot of energy over prolonged periods of time.

Compared to amps, volts, and watts, ohms are a different kind of measurement, though also very common. Ohms show the resistance of materials like wiring: How much they impede the flow of electrons. The reason household wiring is usually copper or aluminum is that these materials are affordable and also have lower ohms, which means low resistance/high conductivity.

It depends on where you live. Some cities may require a permit for electrical work, while others don’t. You’ll need to call your city’s building department to determine if you’ll need to apply for a permit or not. If a permit is required, you’ll likely have to pay a fee for it. 

Some warning signs that your electrical meter box is overloaded include frequent circuit tripping, scorch or burn marks, and flickering lights. You may also notice a burning scent coming from the electrical panel. Keep in mind that a circuit breaker trips as a protection measure; it turns itself off to prevent potential fires.

Incorrectly wiring a single-pole switch results in the connected light or device not turning on or tripping the circuit breaker. Although it doesn't matter which terminal the hot wire and the load wire connect to, mixing up a circuit wire with a ground or having loose connections can prevent the switch from working.
