I called Ruban Electric late on a Friday Afternoon. John Ruban returned my call first thing Monday morning and, came over the next day to look over the work to be done and give me an estimate.

John arrived right on time and answered quite a few questions for me. He looked over the work to be done and, at my request, looked over my circuit breaker panel and emergency generator transfer switch to ensure that it complied with local codes. He did this at no charge.

He gave me a reasonable estimate and we set up a time frame to get the work done. Well within the time frame, John called and set up a time for the next day. He arrived right on time and completed the jobs.

John is a great guy. He is very efficient, knowledgeable and, friendly. His work was impeccable and done quickly. He cleaned up afterwards and, put a drop cloth on the hardwood floor before he started to prevent damage to the hardwood floors from the ladder.

I would highly recommend John and, Ruban Electric to anyone needing any electrical work done. Honesty and integrity are what they believe in and, good work is what they do.

"It was done by Mike Stapleford in the time and manner of a professional electrician with 30 years experience. He cleaned up after himself and was very pleasant. His charge was too low, and I increased the payment to amore reasonable amount. The following day, I gave his name and phone number at my company for use for future work there. I highly recommend Stapleford Electric."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In the case of electrical overflow, an ungrounded outlet should trip the circuit breaker, staving off dangerous scenarios. However, this is not always the case, especially if the wires and circuit breaker are worn down or damaged in some way. Ungrounded wires melt over time as they are introduced to more and more electricity. In other words, a circuit breaker offers protection in most instances but not always, and that’s where the danger lies with ungrounded outlets.

Wire color codes vary depending on the region. For instance, the United Kingdom has updated its wiring codes to match Europe's color system. The United States wiring color code is different, as is Australia's. Because the color code system isn’t universal, it’s essential to hire an experienced electrician to perform any electrical work to ensure it is done correctly.

If there’s already a suitable outlet near the range, you likely won’t need an electrician to install an over-the-range microwave. However, if there isn’t an existing outlet or the current one doesn’t meet the microwave’s power needs, you’ll probably need an electrician to install a new outlet. 

It might seem tempting to use 14-gauge wires for your outlets, as they can run a little cheaper. But, when it comes to electrical work, it’s best not to cut costs less you overload your circuit. A 12-gauge wire will ensure that you’re protecting the outlet (and your circuit breaker) from any potential overloads that might incur, as it can handle a little more amplitude than a 14-gauge wire.

While not always necessary, wiring your circuit breaker in a certain way can ease both the installation process and use afterward. For starters, you’ll need to install the electrical panel so that the main service knockout aligns with the cable conduit. If they aren’t aligned, you may not have sufficient working space to finish running the wires. Using cable trays, on the other hand, gives you a bit more freedom to and flexibility in where and which direction you install the wires. At the end of the day, the power flow will be the same whether the cords run up or down.
