"My experience with Perfect Electric was outstanding. I hired them to install two ceiling fan/lamps and perform routine maintenance on electrical outlets in our apartment. Chris and Chris are thorough, careful, and exceptionally knowledgeable electricians. Their work is impeccable and done at a reasonable cost. They are quick, courteous, on time and pleasant, and they kept us informed about what they were doing at every step. I highly recommend them for any electrical job!"

"Excellent service. Same day, efficient, totally professional. It could have been a big problem in older brownstone (or "can of worms," as electrician said) but he was able to rewire the outlet so that it's essentially new. He told us that running a new line (thus bypassing outlet) wouldn't have solved the problem, since the older wiring would still be carrying energy even if unused. He knew what he was doing. My landlady paid, so I don't know how much it cost, but she was happy. Wanted them to get a good review."

"Omesh exhibited his excellent electrical surgical skills while working on my electrical problem. The hallway lights in my apartment building were out and I needed them fixed quickly before nightfall so my tenants could avoid injury walking down darkened staircases. Omesh arrived without delay; completed his work quickly and now my hallway lights are working fine. The cost was very reasonable compared to quotes by other electricians. I highly recommend Omesh and G & R Electrical Contractors."

"Home owner in Hollis, NY Among other electrical jobs, David installed outlets in my home. I found him to be quite knowledgeable, skillful, and professional. He was punctual in his arrival on the job and he completed the job in a timely manner. He made sure his work followed “code” and left me with a safe, well done job. I also found this pricing to be quite fair and competitive. I will absolutely request to use Power On’s services in the future."

I've used Newgrange for all the electrical work I needed done in our house and my daughter's apartment since they installed a generator, in our house, about 3 years ago. We've lived in this house for 43 years and we've used a lot of electricians in the past. Newgrange is by far the best. They always do what they say they would do and they do it when they say they will do it. They are always professional. They always clean up when they finish. I would highly recommend using them to do electrical work.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, California law requires that electricians be licensed by the state in order to do electrical work. However, there is an exception for small jobs valued at $500 or less. In these cases, an unlicensed handyperson is legally allowed to do the work. Limit hiring unlicensed contractors to minor tasks and fixes around your home.

Yes, electric fences need power to operate. They are powered by either a battery or an electrical outlet. In heavy snow or extreme rain, or if the power goes out, your electric fence might stop working. Knowing how to test an electric fence is important for figuring out if the fence is still functioning properly.

Each meter should have a serial number printed or engraved on the face of the meter. Make sure the serial number of the meter you are reading matches your account with the power company. If you live in an apartment complex, the meters are likely located all together. Yours should be labeled according to your apartment unit.

You can identify Federal Pacific Stab-Lok® breakers by the label on the front of the panel that says “Federal Pacific” or “FPE” and the breaker itself should say “Stab-Lok®” either on the face of the panel or a label inside the panel door. The Stab-Lok® breakers are also usually red on the breaker switch.

Your breaker box houses the breakers that control the circuits in your home, shutting them off if they overload or experience similar problems. Your meter box houses your electrical meter that monitors the electricity flowing into your house and measures its use for your utility company.

In some cases, both components are in the same box, but they don’t have to be together. Many homes have them split, with the breaker box inside for easier access and the electric meter outside.
