"Paul came and was very professional with his questions about my project being sure that he understood what i needed. Then he made sure that he provided the best solution for my electrical needs. He gave me a very reasonable bid. After I hired his company he sent his crew and they did a fantastic job and were very professional and nice. I would recommend this company to all I know for their electrical needs."

"John is very good at what he does. He installed a 50 amp outdoor electrical circuit for me and I couldn’t be happier. He discussed safety concerns, offered reasonable upgrades and even stopped the job and ran for better parts when he realized what he had purchased wasn’t as good as he would like. His quote for the work was very reasonable and he charged me EXACTLY what he quoted even after needing to exchange parts for me. A great electrician. Capable reliable and trustworthy! I will be hiring John again soon for an additional electrical project. I’m happy to have a great contractor to work with me. Thank you!"

"Our water stopped and was told by multiple electricians it was most likely the water pump. Advanced Technologies and Electrical fit us into their schedule the same day to see if it was an electrical issue. It was. He temporarily fixed the issue with a plan to come back and fix it properly. I would highly recommend working with them."

"Anthony is very prompt in replying. He was efficient in getting the job scheduled/completed. He works with your budget & helps to ensure you have the correct electric requirements for your specific job. I cannot recommend him enough. So much so that I have already hired him for another job! Customer service was excellent."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If only half of your outlet works, there are usually two possible causes: faulty wiring or a half-hot outlet. The first thing you'll want to do is check the circuit breaker panel to ensure that it's not tripped. If your circuit breaker isn't tripped, turn off the electricity and inspect the wiring to see if anything has come loose or corroded. 

If you have a half-hot outlet, it means half of the outlet is controlled by a switch somewhere on the same circuit, which should be nearby. This is an intentional electrical design commonly found in rooms without overhead lights.

If your home already has wires for a ceiling fan (and optional light kit), then it’s quite safe to wire and install it yourself. Always be very careful to shut off the power before you begin, and confirm that the power is safely off with a non-contact voltage tester before touching anything. It’s also highly recommended to use eye protection, rubberized gloves, and tools with rubber handles to keep yourself safe from electric shock.

You can check if an electrician is licensed in New York by using the online license verification search tool offered by the New York State Education Department. The database is updated daily and gives you the option of searching by license number, contractor name, or the name of the business.

If one plug in your outlet works but the other doesn't, it could be due to a few reasons. The outlet might have a loose or damaged internal connection on the non-working side. Another possibility is that the outlet is a split receptacle, with one half controlled by a wall switch that might be turned off. Additionally, debris or damage inside the non-working plug could prevent a proper connection. If you can't identify the issue, remember to prioritize safety. Replace the outlet or consult a professional electrician to ensure safety and proper functionality.

Most standard residential water heaters, which are typically around 40 gallons and use 240 volts and between 3,500 and 5,500 watts, require a 30-amp, two-pole circuit breaker. For smaller, point-of-use water heaters using 120 volts and between 1,500 and 3,000 watts, a 30-amp breaker is also often adequate. However, some models may have different needs; units that use more watts than average may require a 40-amp breaker, while smaller units might only need a 20-amp breaker. Newer, tankless, or more energy-efficient models can also require a higher amperage. Having the correct breaker size is crucial for safe and efficient operation, so it's best to consult a licensed electrician to determine the specific needs of your water heater.
