"They arrived on time, installed 2 new circuits w/new breakers, 4 new outlets, 4 new 4 foot LED utility lights with wiring neatly run inside the walls. You can’t tell it wasn’t installed when the house was built. I would recommend Kingdom Electric and Nick and his helper to anyone who needs electrical work, I’m very happy and the estimate was exactly what I paid."

"Very happy with our solar panel installation! Raynor services was excellent throughout the whole process. They did all of the necessary paperwork and guided us through the entire process. They came out on time and completed the installation within 2 days. They left no mess at all and were very polite and respectful. We love that we have already seen a major impact on our electric bill! Kyle and Tyler were very professional and worked hard to get the job done right. We highly recommend Raynor Services and we would definitely call them again."

We feel protected for whatever comes our way."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can put a dimmer on a three-way switch, but it can’t be the same kind of dimmer you’d put on a standard light switch. A three-way switch requires a three-way dimmer. If two switches control a single or multiple lights, then you need a three-way dimmer. The type of light bulb should also be compatible with your fixture and dimmer.

You should never use a plug with burn marks because it can cause a fire or even an electrical shock. The burn marks could be caused by a dangerous underlying electrical problem, so it’s important to call a qualified electrician right away. 

You’ll need to locate and hire an electrician near you if there’s an electrical project you don’t feel comfortable tackling yourself. Generally, look for a contractor that specializes in the type of appliance or component that you need help with. For wiring, outlets and similar projects, a general electrician is your best bet. For larger remodels, a general contractor will often take care of electrical projects via subcontractors.

How many string lights can be on one outlet depends on a number of varying factors, including the total wattage of your circuit, the type of lights, the energy needs of the lights, and cord specifications. It’s better to play it safe here to protect your circuit, so figure out the max wattage of your circuit, compare that to the lights, and move on from there. Generally speaking, LED string lights require less energy than incandescent bulbs, translating to a higher number of lights per circuit. 

The life expectancy of a home electrical panel is typically around 25 to 40 years. However, this can vary based on usage, maintenance, and technological advancements. Regular inspections by a qualified electrician can help determine the condition and potential need for replacement as your panel ages. Factors like overloading, outdated components, or wear and tear might prompt earlier replacements for safety and efficiency reasons.
