"I had a ceiling fan installed today by Ajay from G&R Electrical,inc. He was very friendly, respectful,professional and he explained what he was doing and what he had to do. The price was right. I would recommend this company to a family member, friend or use them again for myself. This is the second fan this company installed for me.I found this company though Home Depot when I purchased my ceiling fan. Thank you again Ajay! Stay safe and blessed."

"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."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

When installing an outdoor outlet, it's important to proceed with caution. Unless you have the necessary training and licensure, it's not recommended to attempt this DIY. First, choose a suitable location. Make sure that the area can accommodate the outlet without overloading the circuit. You'll also need to ensure that your project complies with building codes. Next, turn off the power to the circuit, then install and wire the outlet according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once the outlet is in place, test it. Lastly, be sure to use a cover that will protect it from moisture and other weather-related damage.

There is no blanket figure for a residential home’s electrical load, since load varies by the size of the home, how many appliances are used, and the efficiency of their electrical systems. Typically, however, it’s safe to assume 40 to 60 amps is the average electrical load of a residential home. 

Type S or T fuses don’t require any special removal or installation tools. However, replacing a cartridge-style fuse is easier and safer when using a fuse-puller tool. All of these tools should be available anywhere you can buy fuses.

Wiring a light switch wrong can cause a fire if the incorrect wiring causes arcing, meaning the current jumps uncontrolled from one conductor to another. Loose wires or worn wires that are not repaired or replaced can cause arcing. If you’re not 100% sure you can do the job safely, don’t attempt to wire a light switch on your own.

If you encounter any issues or feel unsure about your abilities, stop immediately and contact a licensed electrician for help. It's better to be safe than sorry when it comes to electrical work, as mistakes during the wiring process can be hazardous to your home and personal safety.
