He is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to clearly explain the work being done and what was required. It’s refreshing to work with someone who is both professional and transparent. I highly recommend Pat and B-Dyson Electric to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality electrical work."

"We hired Conte to install wiring and overhead light/fan fixtures for 3 bedrooms, and to install wiring and lighting for a large attic. We first got an appraisal, and the office staff had already tentatively scheduled a work date, which worked out well. I was at work during the process, but the crew of 2 electricians were able to let themselves in and perform the work. I came later to check it out and they did a terrific job. Frankly, if I didn't know I hired them, I would have never known they were there. Perfect work, everything cleaned up, and now we can see in the attic. They installed an illuminated switch in the hallway below attic so that we can turn on the lights from below and see (via the illuminated switch) if the lights are on or off. Definitely would hire them again."

"I would highly recommend Tri Cat Electric. They showed up on time and brought all the tools needed for the job. The work was done professionally and within a very reasonable time. Since this was for a 220 line for charging a Tesla, they knew the details of the vehicles requirements and were able to answer all of my questions. I was pleased with that! The work went very smoothly, and my home was left neat and clean. We checked out the charging line and all went well. Tri Cat was recommended by Tesla and I can understand why. Great job! Impressed!"

"It went Super Well😃😊☺️😊😇🙂😉😇😄 Before he came to my house he asked to see photos of the electrical problem. I text them and he immediately sent me an estimated price with a maximum cap for the projected job! So, I decided to hire him and I’m so glad I did. ☺️😄😀😃😌😄😄😃😀😇😄🙂😊😃😇 I thought his price was quite reasonable compared to what Home Depot’s electrical service men were asking. When he came to my house and ran some tests and opened the old electrical mount I was able to see the cause of the flickering lights. Then, he gave me an estimated cost of the new Flushmount, and quickly left and return within a half an hour with a receipt and installed it. He work efficiently and proficiently!! He was punctual, courteous, experienced and very dedicated to completing his electrical task. And when he’s done he will explain and show you how the new dimmer switch works. He even brought his own ladder with him. I will definitely use his service again when needing electrical repairs!!"

"I had a great experience with Solaris Electrical! Semir personally came to my home and did an excellent job. He responded to my posting very quickly and came the next day to install a 240 V (Level 2) outlet for my EV charger in the garage. He also upgraded my existing electrical panel and completed everything quickly, precisely, and with outstanding quality. The work was done neatly and professionally — no mess, no delays, and everything works perfectly. I’m very happy with the result and will definitely use Solaris Electrical again for future electrical projects. Highly recommend this company — Semir is professional, efficient, and reliable!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In the United States, home outlets support a standard 15 amps, but you can upgrade per outlet if necessary. Most single-family residential homes have a maximum overall amp rating, usually 100 to 200 amps. Very old houses may have less than 100 amps, but that’s rare. Large homes often come with amp services above 200 amps to support modern lifestyles.

Yes, you can use a 3/0 AWG wire for a 200 amp service, but only if it is made of copper, as 3/0 copper wire has an allowable ampacity of 225 amps. If you are using aluminum or aluminum copper-clad wire, you need to use at least 4/0 AWG.

If you need to run a wire from the meter to the breaker box, start by turning off the power using the main switch to avoid injury risks from live wires. Then, locate the ground wire from your meter and connect it to the ground bar of the breaker box. Connect the neutral wire using the same method to improve your circuit efficiency.

Next, locate the hot wires running from the main switch to the meter. To connect them to the correct terminals from meter to breaker, unscrew the nuts of the breaker hotwire terminals, insert the positive hotwire, and ensure it’s firmly attached. Finally, secure the wires with electrical tape and wire tie cables before re-securing your breaker box. Keep in mind that this process can be dangerous, so don’t hesitate to hire a local electrician.

For a 200-amp underground service, you need a minimum of #2/0 American Wire Gauge (AWG) copper or #4/0 AWG aluminum or copper-clad wire. Don’t forget that, at minimum, you’ll need to use a 1 1/2-inch schedule 40 or 80 PVC conduit to successfully run a 200-amp underground service.

Yes, wires are still hot, even if the light switch is off. The only way to ensure the wire is no longer live and that you can work with it safely is to open your circuit breaker, locate the breaker for the outlet you’re working with, and turn off the breaker for that outlet.
