"My house generator was serviced and the battery replaced. Everything about the experience was excellent. Mike, the technician, called when he was on the way, worked with me and my restrictions because of Covid, he was punctual, professional, explained thoroughly the work he did. For 8 years Anderson has serviced my generator and when needed during electric outage, my generator keeps my house running until the electric service is restored! Thank you for reliable service!"

"Our old seventy-two-year-old home just couldn’t handle all the electrical additions we’ve made over the years. The 100-amp electrical panel worked great in 1955, but things changed when we added central air. The old fuse box didn’t thrill me—and apparently, it didn’t thrill our insurance company either. Something had to change, and soon. Off to Angie’s List we went. Lo and behold, five electrical contractors popped up. I called three, rejected two, and pressed on with Elite Edge Contracting. Stephen Gilligan and Jonathan Foti sounded like they might be just the right fit. Jonathan Foti quickly analyzed our specific electrical requirements. We discussed our needs and agreed on a work contract that clearly addressed the who, what, when, and how. His no-nonsense approach and extensive electrical knowledge immediately impressed me. As soon as the dynamic duo arrived, the work began—and it proceeded smoothly through a very satisfactory completion. They were professional, knowledgeable"

"Mr. Donohue is very knowledgeable and has excellent experience in the lightning protection area. He responds quickly and has a very professional team of workers. He quoted the job using google earth information. When he visited the site he reduced his price by over 50%. I highly recommend him and I will use his company again."

"Used this company previously and again it was a pleasure from beginning to end. I would give him 10 Stars if I could. Referred William to a close friend of mine and she was just as pleased. We both sleep better during our bad Florida thunderstorms. A friend of mine lost their home due to lightning. They got out just in time couldn’t save anything but their lives barely. I urge all to install lightning rods."

He was professional, thorough, and took the time to clearly explain the problem and my overall electrical setup. He identified the root cause and implemented a clean, reliable fix. I really appreciated his attention to detail and how methodical he was throughout the process. Highly recommend Jeffrey if you’re looking for someone knowledgeable and dependable."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

No, both switches do not need to be on for a 3-way switch to work. When the two switches are in opposite positions, the circuit is open and the light is off. Flipping either switch closes the circuit and turns the light on. So, either switch can turn the light off independently, and both switches do not need to be in the same position for the switch to function.

A ceiling light will usually have two or three wires: black, white, and sometimes green. Black wires are positive, or hot, while white wires are negative, or neutral. The green wire is the grounding wire. 

When you’re wiring the light, connect black to black, white to white, and green to the grounding screw.

Smart light switches are designed to be compatible with most lights and traditional home wiring, but there are several key factors to check. First, verify your home's wiring, as some smart switches require a neutral wire to operate, which may not be present in older houses (often built before 1985). Always check the wiring requirements for the specific model you choose. Second, consider your light bulbs; while smart switches work with almost any light, using a dimming feature requires dimmable bulbs, such as dimmable LEDs. Finally, ensure you have the necessary network connection. Most smart switches need a Wi-Fi connection for remote control, but some older models might use other standards like ZigBee, which would require a compatible hub.

While the National Electrical Code (NEC) does not set a strict limit, a common guideline is to have a maximum of eight outlets or receptacles on a 15-amp circuit. This rule of thumb, which equates to about one outlet per 1.5 amps, helps keep the total electrical load safely below 80% of the circuit breaker's capacity. It is important to consider the power demands of any devices or appliances that will be plugged in, as overloading a circuit can lead to tripped breakers or create a fire hazard. To ensure the safety and code compliance of your electrical system, consult with a licensed electrician.

If you are having trouble determining the right breaker size for your water heater, it is a great idea to contact an electrician near you to help. They can help you determine the best option for your home and install the circuit breaker for you, ensuring that you have all the proper permits and that your circuit breaker won’t overload, which could lead to fire and other damage.
