"I have a very good impression of Mr. Morton and appreciate his efficiency and speed in getting my generator back in service. I have asked him to put me on his list for a yearly evaluation. I am trusting that the next time there is a power failure my generator will be back in operation."

"I hired Prime Sine Electric LLC for a complete new electrical service and wiring on our 1937 home when purchased. It was in need of a complete gut-job. Spence did an amazing job bringing it up to today's standards. I mean, totally amazing transformation. Spence was professional the entire time through the quote process, customer service and final completion. He listened to our needs and gave input and helped us with planning the electrical needs of this old house. We can't recommend Spence enough and would hire him again in an instant."

"As first-time homebuyers, finding an electrician was stressful. We compared many quotes, but at the first estimate Derrick's confidence and knowledge earned our trust right away. He installed lights in our living room, all 3 bedrooms, added dimmers, and ran dedicated circuits with waterproof outlets for our bidets. He handled the permit and inspection, always told us what he was doing before starting, communicated quickly, and was very flexible. It's very impressive that he started working around 6am, super hard working! The details really stood out. He used a laser to line up the 6 living room lights perfectly, and matched all the bulb colors without us asking. The room looks so much brighter and more fancy now. Upgrading to dimmers was a thoughtful touch too. Derrick is honest, responsible, and just a really nice guy. It's rare to make a friend through a house project! We'll be recommending him to all our family and friends. Highly recommend! ❤️"

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

Licensed electricians should perform work for safety reasons; improper installations can prove hazardous or result in code violations currently.

An electrician can handle wiring issues with the garage door opener, like faulty connections, circuit problems, or sensor malfunctions, but they’re not the right person to hire for mechanical repairs. Garage door specialists handle things like broken springs, tracks, and panels, while electricians step in if there’s an issue with power supply, motor function, or safety sensors that aren’t responding correctly.

In general, 200 amps is enough for a house with a square footage of up to 1,800, or the average three-bedroom home. A 200-amp service allows your home to warm and cool itself while running multiple appliances at once. It's a good option for homes that have been extended, or after adding new appliances. 200-amp service is the current standard for homes, so in most cases, it will work for you.

To determine if an electrical outlet is blown, look for visible signs of damage such as a burning or smoky smell, burn marks, or a melted or discolored plastic cover. If you notice a burning smell, contact an electrician immediately. Other signs include a plug that keeps falling out or the outlet not working when you test it with different devices. For further troubleshooting, you can use a voltage tester or multimeter to check for power; a reading of zero indicates a problem. Also, check your circuit breaker or fuse box to see if the circuit was tripped and reset it if necessary. If these steps don't resolve the issue, the outlet may need to be replaced.

While washers and dryers do not require a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) outlet to function properly, electrical codes often mandate their use for safety. The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires GFCI protection for all outlets within six feet of a water source. This means a washer and dryer must be plugged into a GFCI outlet if they are installed in locations like a laundry room, utility room, garage, or basement. In other areas without a nearby water source, there is no specific requirement, but using a GFCI outlet is still recommended for extra peace of mind. It is always best to consult your local codes and regulations to ensure compliance and safety.
