"Chris & Trin were very professional. Came out prepared to start the work the day I called and requested their advise. There had to be a 2nd trip due to access problems, but they were very honest, sincere, and very accommodating to our needs. I recommend them without reservation. Thank You Allied Electric!"

"I have had the opportunity to work with Dmitriy on a few projects, and I have been thoroughly impressed with his honesty, efficiency, and excellent craftsmanship. Scope of work - replace wooden fence and replace one large post and many cross boards on my 20x30 arbor. He is a true professional who takes pride in his work, and always ensures that his clients are happy with the results. I highly recommend Dmitriy for all your handyman needs!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Outdoor outlets should be at least 15-amp, but preferably 20-amp. The exact rating will depend on the electrical load of the devices that will be plugged into the outlet and the capacity of the circuit. It's important not to overload the circuit, which can cause safety hazards such as tripped breakers or electrical fires. In general, a circuit rated for at least 20 amps is recommended for outdoor outlets, while each outlet should be rated for at least 15 amps.

Yes, a light switch still has power even when switched off. Switches only interrupt or continue the flow of electricity into a fixture or outlet; they do not shut off the power flowing into the wire. The only way to shut off power in a light switch is to turn off the power at the circuit breaker.

Yes, you can splice electrical wires together to make them longer. If you follow the proper safety protocols and match the correct colors, you can save yourself from getting a brand-new circuit and add length to your wires to get them where they need to go.

A blinking, or twinkle, bulb makes Christmas lights blink. Usually, this type of bulb has a silver or red tip, making it easily distinguishable from other non-blinking bulbs. Most packages of Christmas lights come with additional blinking and non-blinking bulbs. Additional bulbs can be purchased at a hardware store or online retailer.

Home power is measured in kilowatt-hours, commonly expressed as kWh. The average home uses between 800 and 1,000 kWh per month. Peak usage (and highest bills) occurs in the middle of summer and the depths of winter. Keeping on top of your usage during these crucial months will lower your annual average usage considerably.
