"For the past 15 years Mike from Shamrock Electric has done extensive electrical work for two homes. He is personable, reliable, knowledgeable and fastidious. Recently he returned for a smaller job and completing a delicate onyx sconce installation with the same skill and expertise. I’m always confident that the job has been done right when Mike does my electrical work. I highly recommend him. He is a pro!"

"Chris called and came over right away to give us an assessment of the project and the price for installing a new electrical panel. Fair price, superior work. He was flexible/accommodating to fit our job in quickly since we were going on vacation shortly. The day of the job, Chris stayed till late evening to complete the job. We are completely satisfied. His work is meticulous and neat. Chris is professional, experienced, excellent at his work, and very personable. Would not hesitate to recommend him to all."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.

When wiring a switch, the power typically comes into the receptacle first. The neutral wire goes straight to the outlet, while the hot wire is split. You'll need a wire nut to splice the hot wire back to one of the receptacles, but you will also tie another wire into that same wire nut and run to the switch. That way, you can control the flow of electricity to that particular receptacle by turning the switch on and off.

Yes, you can connect two extra outlets (or more) to one outlet if the total load on the circuit allows for it. If you have a 15-amp circuit, electrical code allows up to eight outlets or light switches. But if you’re dealing with outlets in the kitchen and bathroom, you may not be able to have as many. Kitchen and bathroom appliances often need higher amperage. You can also change a single outlet to a double outlet by cutting a larger hole in the drywall and replacing the outlet with a quad receptacle.

Professional services ensure safe installations, reliable repairs, and compliance with codes emphasizing safety in electrical networks.

The number of outlets and lights you can safely run on a single circuit depends on the circuit's amperage and local electrical codes. A general rule is to allow one outlet or light fixture per 1.5 amps, keeping the total load under 80% of the circuit breaker's capacity. For example, a 15-amp circuit can typically support up to eight outlets or lights, while a 20-amp circuit can accommodate up to ten. Always consider the combined power usage of all connected devices and fixtures to prevent overloading. For specific guidelines and to ensure safety, it is best to consult local electrical codes or a licensed electrician.
