"Excellent. Joe and his team of electricians were very professional. They replaced/upgraded my service entry cable to 200 amps and replaced the corroded breaker panel box in the basement as well. They coordinated the shutdown with National Grid and the electrical inspection as well and were really on top of everything throughout the process."

"The entire team at OHara was *great.* Kelly was on top of all the office coordination and very easy to communicate with. Mike was very efficient and stayed late to make sure the job was done. They were willing to work with me and were familiar with the newer (and less popular) technology I was asked to be installed. Not only fantastic service all around, but their quote came in significantly less than a competitor. I will *definitely* be calling OHara for any future electric work and would not hesitate to recommend them."

"My electrician showed up two consecutive weeks for separate projects on time and got the work done so efficiently . Gerrick cleaned up and left the work areas spotless. He also accommodated my first request on short notice since I had people staying at my home the following weekend. Awesome customer service and the work done was flawlessly."

"Randy was extremely professional. Arrived on time and completed the job quickly and correctly. Throughout the job and prior to departing he was tidy and clean and left the place cleaner than it was when he arrived. The new bath fans work great and I would definitely hire them for any future electrical work around my home."

"Despite a -12 windchill, Kevin and Jose sent a notice 30 minutes before their arrival and got to work immediately. They were both extremely courteous, professional, knowledgeable, and industrious. The project was extensive but they managed to keep power interruptions to an absolute minimum. Considering that the generator project required work involving gas, electric, and internet, their presence in our small house went almost unnoticed. I would absolutely recommend them. Great work!"

"Don was able to fix several problems, including my washing machine whose water would not stop rising and replacing an out of code electrical outlet. Bizarre electrical problems cropped up with both the washing machine fix and outlet replacement while he worked on them, but he persevered and was able to figure them out and resolve the problem. Don is very friendly, gives advice about products when asked, I would recommend him to others."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

You can certainly talk with electricians about pricing, but the pro has the first and last word on what they charge. If you feel like a quote is too expensive, you can discuss the quotes that other electricians have made and see if they’ll lower their estimate in return. Or you may be able to talk about specific parts of the estimate and how they can be changed. 

It wouldn’t be abnormal to view all wiring as simply wiring, but wiring has different gauges and can handle different loads. When you’re wiring for 240V, you need wire that is rated at least 240V, but honestly it’s better to spend a little more and just buy 300V wiring. This ensures a margin of safety in case the wiring gets overloaded.

There are several things to try to repair a broken outlet. Whether it's fixable or not may depend on the problem and the type of outlet itself. Start by testing the circuit with an electrical tester and ensuring the breaker switch to the circuit functions as it should. Loose wires are sometimes the culprit and are repairable by fixing the connections. 

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency.
