"Was having a problem getting my newly installed hi hat lights. Julian diagnosed the problem and corrected the problem quickly. I would definitely recommend Julian to family and friends. I was so impressed with his work, I also asked for an estimate for some more of my electrical needs."

Customers say: True professional

"If you're looking for an honest and knowledgeable electrician, R.A.P. Electric Company is the real deal. When my master bathroom outlets suddenly lost power, I spent hours checking breakers, outlets, and GFCIs without finding the problem. After contacting R.A.P. through Angi, I expected a service call and a bill. Instead, the electrician took the time to ask a few questions and patiently guided me through troubleshooting over the phone. He helped me locate a forgotten GFCI outlet in my basement that had tripped and was causing the problem. Once I reset it, everything worked perfectly. Many electricians could have charged me for a house call to perform a 30-second fix. Instead, R.A.P. chose honesty and customer service over making a quick dollar. That level of integrity is rare these days. I will definitely use R.A.P. Electric Company for any future electrical work and highly recommend them."

"We could not find the source of our electric problem but Max was very thoroughly and didnt stop until finding the source for the power outage in my living room, hallway and outside lights! He was very professional and troubleshooted each outlet and room until the issue was solved. So grateful!"

"Marcello was very honest and fair. His price was reasonable and he did very good work. I had to leave for my job while he was working on my electric panel, and left my home open for him to do his work. He was professional and did not disturb my home in any way. Nice man and very honest. I would have him do more work at my house in a minute"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

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.

The process of hiring a reliable electrician begins by searching for local professionals and verifying that they hold a master electrician certification and the proper licensing for your area. After that, you should read through reviews from past customers to see the kind of service you can expect from the contractor, as well as look at the Better Business Bureau’s (BBB) website to check for a history of company complaints. You can also ask for customer references to make sure you’re choosing a reputable professional.

A breaker won’t always trip if an outlet burns out. If the outlet is overloaded or has a short circuit, the breaker is designed to trip and discontinue power to the outlet. However, some wiring problems that can burn out an outlet may not cause the breaker to trip, so don’t rely on it as a signal that something is wrong.

Usually, a light switch goes bad due to normal wear and tear. Light switches are mechanical devices with internal moving parts. These parts make contact with each other, and, over time, the friction can wear them down, causing the switch to feel loose, arc, or fail to operate. 

The cost to upgrade an electrical panel ranges from $1,200 to $2,000, depending on the type of electrical panel you need and the size of your home. Amperage plays a central role in determining the cost, so calculate your home’s electrical load before purchasing. For example, a 100-amp and 400-amp panel vary widely in cost.
