"I needed an electrician on very short notice. JP's Electric was very responsive to my online inquiry. They completed the job within a few hours of speaking with them. I didn't have time to shop around because I needed work done for a rental unit. I can't say that pricing was fair or high. I just know that anytime you hire a contractor it's $100 when they knock your the door. Joe Pelose was very nice and accommodating. They completed the job without a deposit or any credit card information on file. Would recommend and use their service again."

"Marcus did a great job, figured out my electrical problems, put up 2 ceiling fans, added an electrical outlet in my garage. Also cleaned up everything and moved back everything he touched. He was a very pleasant person and explained everything he was doing. Wouldn't hesitate to hire him and Photon electric again. Thank you Beverly"

"I've used JA ELECTRIC several times over the years but most recently, ice fell and damaged our meter can. Nationalgrid said we needed to have a electrical inspection before they could restore our power. John came out that morning, replaced our service and had our power on by lunch. I wouldnt use anyone else."

"The exact work we had done was the annual inspection and service updates to our back up generator. The electrical technicians Anderson hires are always great. Communicative, professional, fast, they do an excellent job. Sean was all of that. A great example of quality from a reputable firm."

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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.

If you have a tank-type electric water heater, it runs regularly to keep the water at the desired temperature. If you live in a home where you don’t use much hot water, it could seem wasteful to run power to heat water that you’re using infrequently. You could save some power by using a smaller tank, insulating the tank, or lowering the temperature of the water heater.

Different types of light switches include single-pole switches (the standard switch in your home), double-pole switches, toggle switches, three-way switches, four-way switches, dimmer switches, and more. 

A single-pole light switch controls the power to a single device, whereas two-way, three-way, and four-way light switches control lights from different locations, increasing the number of connections in the home.

Yes, you should get a quote or an estimate from an electrician. Most electricians offer free estimates or quotes. When getting quotes, do your research and verify each electrician’s license. Get quotes from three different electricians to compare. If the prices or items listed appear different on the quotes, ask the electrician to clarify. Learning as much as you can about the electrical work you want done will help you get the most accurate estimate.
