"Highly recommend! Very professional, friendly, prompt! Great job, great guys. Always called and showed up as promised. Jim came to see the scope of work and discuss timing just a couple of days after we spoke on the phone. The job was done as scheduled and done perfectly. They were knowledgeable and efficient - replacing some old knob & tube wiring in a 150+ year old house; and adding some new outlets/switches where I wanted them. I will call them again when I need any electrical work done!"

"Preferred Electric came right out to provide me with an estimate, which was lower than others and he seemed professional, so I hired him. He was able to perform the work within 2 weeks. He came and did the work himself. He installed the bath fan and kitchen curciuts as requestd. I then had him come back to install the smoke and CO2 Alarms in the house."

"Used this company previously and again it was a pleasure from beginning to end. I would give him 10 Stars if I could. Referred William to a close friend of mine and she was just as pleased. We both sleep better during our bad Florida thunderstorms. A friend of mine lost their home due to lightning. They got out just in time couldn’t save anything but their lives barely. I urge all to install lightning rods."

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

Christmas lights typically do not need to be grounded like electrical circuits in your home do. However, it's crucial to use outdoor outlets equipped with ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) for added safety. GFCIs can help protect against electrical shocks and are recommended for outdoor electrical connections when using Christmas lights.

A ground wire is not required for GFCI to work. A ground is a third wire in an outlet in addition to the live and neutral wires. It serves as an escape conduit for electricity in case of a short circuit. If a ground wire is present, installers should connect it to the appropriate terminal. Otherwise, a GFCI will work fine without it.

Do not touch electrical wires in your home without first turning off the power at your circuit breaker and testing the wire with a voltage meter or multimeter. Electricity still flows through wires even when a light switch is powered off, and touching wires with the switch on can result in electrical shock.

There are a few ways to reduce your electricity bills if you use window AC units to keep cool. Set the unit temperature at least 1 degree higher than it is currently to reduce costs. Keep the unit clean for it to run efficiently. You may want to hire a window AC specialist near you to inspect the unit once a year and keep it in tip-top shape.

The answer depends on your needs and the availability of your current electrical panel. If you’re hoping to seriously up the power in your detached living space, you may also need to consider increasing the power of the amp your home runs on (from 100-amps to 200-amps, for example).
