The modern suburban and small town home of today has become an ideal lightning target. The home owner would do well to recognize lightning for the destructive force that it is and protect against this major life and fire hazard. Donohue's Lightning Rods is based in Missouri, near the factory where most of the residential and commercial lightning rod supplies are manufactured. Jim travels regularly to Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and New York. Call today to find out when Jim will be in your area. For installations outside Missouri, Kansas, or Texas, Jim waits until there are a few customers lined up, thus being able to provide the same quality services at affordable prices. **WE DO NOT DO ELECTRICAL SERVICES.** (ONLY LIGHTNING RODS)

"The job was beautifully and professionally done. I have a zero scape yard and the gentleman was concerned about disturbing the gravel when putting the rod into the ground. WOW!!!!"

"Hurricane solutions installed a home generator for us two years ago. It was explained to the salesman and the person that came out to review the job that we had a solar edge solar panels with batteries that was connected to the grid and that the batteries powered the house first before switching to the grid when there was no sun. Everyone from the company assured us that they knew how to install the generator. They wired it without connecting to the solar panel control box. It has not powered the house since it was installed because the generator can sense the power in the batteries which are not allowed to go below 10% as not to ruin them. Hurricane solutions has refused to fix the problems they created. I spent over a year contacting them dozens of times with them about their improper installation with no results. They have shown that they will not fix problems that they have created due to their ignorance on how to install a generator into a modern solar system. Dennis F. "

We are a residential and commercial electrical contractor that provides quality work at an affordable price with over 5 years of experience. No job is too big or to small. We pride ourselves on 100% customer satisfaction by standing by our product and making sure you have the best possible experience. Call us today!!!!

"We’ve had Twin Tiers Electric at our home more than a half dozen times over the last few years. Beyond knowledgeable and skilled workmanship they provide great communication, flexible scheduling, and on time arrival. They minimized the impact their work had in our home and left our home as they found it (maybe better?). They also offered suggestions for alternatives to the work we had asked for safety or to prevent problems in the future. What more could we ask for? But where they really shined was one occasion where we had a so-called lost neutral…a situation in which the voltage at an outlet can be very low to twice the normal 120 volts. We damaged a few appliances before we knew something was wonky. We were lucky we didn’t suffer any injury or cause a fire. The folks from Twin Tiers came out immediately. First they located the source of the problem as the underground cable between our house and the connection with the power company. They arranged for a generator to provide minimal power to our home to keep our refrigerators and water well pump running so we could remain in our home during the repair. So thoughtful! They had to excavate a trench, lay replacement conduit and cable, and backfill. Throughout the work they handled all the communication with the power company to disconnect us from the grid, inspect the work, and reconnect us. Finally they provided the necessary documentation for our insurance claim. They were at our house for over a week from dawn to dusk even through a holiday weekend. What a great work ethic! The service from Twin Tiers is everything we could expect and so much more!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If the electrical wires you’re working with are too short, one of the easiest ways to elongate it is to extend them with a push-in connector. These user-friendly tools help you splice two wires together with little fuss or the need for extra tools, like a crimping tool, which is an older way of extending wires. As long as you can stripe the ends of a wire, using a push-in connector shouldn’t be an issue.

When wondering what size of breaker for a water heater is appropriate, the majority of hot water heaters need a 30-amp, two-pole breaker. Most residential water heaters use 240 volts and between 3,500 and 5,500 watts. If your appliance matches these measurements, a 30-amp breaker is likely perfect. Owners of point-of-use water heaters using 120 volts and between 1,500 and 3,000 watts often find that a 30-amp breaker is adequate. Water heaters that use more watts than average may need a 40-amp breaker. Smaller units that use fewer watts could potentially use a 20-amp breaker.

The Occupational Safety and Home Administration (OSHA) requires an electrical panel to have a minimum of three feet (36 inches) of room from the front of the panel to the closest obstacle. In this case, the word obstacle refers to nearly everything, including walls, machines, and other fixed objects. Additionally, panels require at least 6½ feet of headroom in the area directly in front of the fixture. These requirements help ensure safe use of the panel and allow electricians plenty of room to work.

Incorrectly wiring a single-pole switch results in the connected light or device not turning on or tripping the circuit breaker. Although it doesn't matter which terminal the hot wire and the load wire connect to, mixing up a circuit wire with a ground or having loose connections can prevent the switch from working. 

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.
