"For the past 15 years Mike from Shamrock Electric has done extensive electrical work for two homes. He is personable, reliable, knowledgeable and fastidious. Recently he returned for a smaller job and completing a delicate onyx sconce installation with the same skill and expertise. I’m always confident that the job has been done right when Mike does my electrical work. I highly recommend him. He is a pro!"

"PKJ Electrical is the most professional electrician's I have ever hired. They were on time, courteous and very knowledgeable. They replaced my breaker box. I have never before seen the wires so neat and organized as I did after he was finished with my job. I will only hire PKJ for all of my future electrical needs. Thank you again for such a wonderful experience."

"DZ Electric has come to our rescue on more than one occasion over the past two years; has always been quick to respond, super friendly, and more-than reasonably priced. They resolved an issue I was having with a hot tub, replaced an entire electrical panel, installed motion detector lights, and even restored our 30+ year-old landscaping lights because I was too stubborn to find replacementsâ ¦BTW they are beautiful once again! Their most recent visit is a true testament to how GREAT they areâ ¦.it was not to my home. My husband and I had been looking forward to a weekâ s vacation on our boat when its air conditioning failed. After days of having multiple marine technicians on board not able to locate the problem, I decided to call Darren at DZ Electric. He responded immediately and met with us that same afternoon. Our boat was unfamiliar territory to Darren, but he was willing to do whatever it took to help us, and was confident he would find the problem. Darren returned, on time as always, with Rob and Orlandoâ ¦and they immediately got to work. They were laser focused on one thing, getting us back in vacation mode. Not only did they find the problem, they FIXED the problemâ ¦. all within a few hours!! They went above and beyond for us; working in very tight quarters-in extreme heat and humidity, and never complained about it. Even left our boat cleaner than they found it. They salvaged our vacationâ ¦my heroes!! We are very grateful, and would never consider using anyone else for an electrical issue. Thanks guys, you truly are the BEST!!!"

"Matt did two jobs for me, an outdoor lighting job and an inside job where I needed an extra switch installed on a bathroom fixture. Both times he arrived when he said he would and went right to work. Both jobs took less time than I thought they would and best of all Matt's prices are very reasonable. I am so glad I have found Matt Greco Electrical. He is reliable and reasonable and you can rest assured Matt will take care of any electrical issue you have."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If a light switch is off, it’s very unlikely to cause a fire. For a fire to start, the switch has to be on, activating an electrical current, and the wiring must be faulty. However, the malfunctioning light switch could cause an intermittent current to move across the electrical wire. This issue could become a fire hazard with another device connected to the wire. You should replace the bad light switch as soon as you notice it or call an electrician.

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.

Yes, you can use a 3/0 AWG wire for a 200 amp service, but only if it is made of copper, as 3/0 copper wire has an allowable ampacity of 225 amps. If you are using aluminum or aluminum copper-clad wire, you need to use at least 4/0 AWG.

There are various reasons why an electrical outlet can stop working. You might have to do some detective work to understand whether it’s a problem with the attached appliance, the outlet itself, or a faulty breaker. Sometimes, old age or loose wiring are to blame; other times, it can be as simple as an overloaded circuit tripping the system and cutting power. If you’re troubleshooting doesn’t solve the mystery or repairs, or replacements are required, it’s time to call in the pros.

The safest way to pull an electrical cord from the wall outlet is by gently but firmly grabbing the plug and pulling it out. Pulling on the cord instead of the plug can cause damage to the cord, leading to an increased risk of electrical problems like fire or electric shock. If you notice damaged wiring on an appliance or device, it’s best to stop using it immediately.
