"Marty's craftsmanship and customer service is outstanding. He helped us switch from a tank water heater to a tankless water heater, and we couldn't be happier! Marty went as far as researching to help us select the correct water heater for the job, as we originally selected one that would have required us to update our whole electrical system. He also was able to recommend a plumber service that saved us money compared to the one that the store had scheduled for the job. We are so grateful to have found Marty, and we highly recommend him for any electrical work you need done!"

"Mark is amazing! Extremely friendly and concerned with all customer requirements. Showed great concern to the fact I was without hot water for several days (due to faulty breaker). Got here earlier than planned, stayed later than planned to ensure job was done, all zones labeled properly (finally!) We spoke of other work I need to have done and I will be certain Diamond Electric is the only electrical contractor I hire for those projects. Excellent job Mark! I am so very happy you were available to help me. :-D"

"Scott is excellent to work with in all aspects of electrical. I am a general contractor and Moses Electric has done all my electrical for the past 12yrs. I look to no one else. From the non working outlet or switch, to service upgrades, underground work, data, fire alarm panels, low voltage, new construction, remodeling, troubleshooting, all the way to 3 phase industrial and commercial work. Scott has been along side me for all aspects of the electrical work and never skipped a beat. I have full confidence to refer Moses Electric to my own clients, friends and family. Knowing when I pass his name along it will not come back to me with a negative effect. Always happy clients every time, in addition to being clean in all aspects of presentation and workmanship. I am not biased because I am in the trades. We rely on referrals and relationships to provide our living so there is no benefit to saying what isn't true. I highly recommend Scott and Moses Electric for any of your electrical needs. He makes the process easy and seamless."

Their team was very respectful of my home and even wiped the floor after each day’s work. Every member of the team was kind and respectful. Will certainly work with them again in the future for any of my HVAC/electrical needs."

"Dave stepped in to rescue us from the cold of winter when we first moved into our new (old) home. He installed baseboard and blower heaters after adding a new breaker box and correcting many miss-wires. He installed overhead fans and lighting fixtures. He does professional electrical work."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Moving an electrical outlet typically costs between $25 and $300. The final price depends on several factors, including the type of outlet, the condition of your existing wiring, and the state of your walls. For example, working on exposed walls without drywall is easier and less expensive for an electrician. However, if the walls are finished, the cost may increase to account for necessary repairs afterward. It's recommended to consult a professional for a precise quote based on your specific situation.

You can distinguish the amplitude and voltage of most outlets by looking at the shape and positioning of the holes. Other features like buttons, switches, and USB ports help identify electric outlets, too. Use labeled images, like the ones we’ve included above, to cross-reference with your outlets.

Smoke detectors come in two different options: hardwired or battery-operated. While hardwired units are attached directly to the home’s electrical system, a battery-operated smoke detector only needs a simple battery for operation and can be placed virtually anywhere in your home. Some homeowners may mistakenly think their battery-operated units are hardwired in because all their units are interconnected, but many battery-operated units can operate within a smoke alarm network in your home.

Volts and watts aren’t directly convertible units—they measure different aspects of electricity. Volts measure electrical potential, while watts quantify the power. The relationship between the two is defined by the equation: Power (watts)= Voltage (volts) x Current (amperes). In other words, the product of volts and amps results in watts, but there is no fixed conversion of volts into watts.

The National Electrical Codebook indicates that there should be at least 6 inches of wiring in the breaker box for connecting purposes. When in doubt, err on the side more, because you can always cut some wire off but you can never add it back on, and if you don’t have enough you may struggle to finish wiring your breaker box properly.
