"After spending almost 13 thousand dollars 2 months ago for installation of cummins home generator-it would not shut off after a normal automatic test. I called the company and they said shut off the gas. This was April 12. The said it would be May before a tech co u l check it out. So what do you think- you pay 13 grand to prote c t you from power outages but when it is faulty you are at the mercy of what appears to be a lack of technicians and VERY poor service. Its April 29 and havent heard back from them. The say they will call back and dont. Recommend you stay away frpm thi compNy!"

I know carpentry so I can rough in your new project, but knowing electric, gas, and plumbing I can also run or repair whatever utilities you need installed or repaired. When I'm done, I can hang and finish drywall but I'm very particular about my drywall finishing. I refuse to do texture because it's lazy unskilled trash and I prefer timed mud so I can the job done quicker which saves you money and gets me on to my next job quicker. I'm incredibly knowledgeable in electrical code, residential electrical is my preference and specialty, and I refuse to do any work that renders any property unsafe. I will include clauses in the contract to protect myself from those who insist on going the cheap route so I can offer the highest quality product while at a MINIMUM meeting code. I will NEVER install a 15 amp receptacle on a 20 amp circuit unless it is downstream of the first 20 amp receptacle on the circuit AND in a double gang. Code may say it's okay to install a 15 amp receptacle on a 20 amp if it's downstream of a 20 amp, but it's still bad practice and I do NOT like doing it. If I find other problems, such as a non GFCI in a GFCI required environment, I will inform you for your safety. While water might be the single most patient and destructive force of nature, electricity is the the single most destructive and dangerous utility and I do NOT take short cuts working electrical. I do NOT use CPVC. CPVC is a menace to the plumbing industry and I in fact have to replumb my wife's house because the CPVC is failing. If you want CPVC, find someone else because I will NOT install that product under any circumstance. I only work with PEX and Copper for supply. Sewer lines will always be the minimum code requirement of schedule 40 PVC. If you want to upgrade, I strongly encourage it if you can afford it. If your project is too big for me to take on, I will not hesitate to disclose up front I don't want the job, but I will offer free estimates for every job.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

When wiring a switch, the power typically comes into the receptacle first. The neutral wire goes straight to the outlet, while the hot wire is split. You'll need a wire nut to splice the hot wire back to one of the receptacles, but you will also tie another wire into that same wire nut and run to the switch. That way, you can control the flow of electricity to that particular receptacle by turning the switch on and off.

Yes, many professionals offer surge protection to safeguard equipment from power fluctuations.

Rewiring an electric system in a house typically ranges between $2,000 and $9,000, but a simple project can cost as low as $1,500. More complex upgrades run $10,000 or higher. The price depends on the size of your home, how accessible the wiring is, the cost of materials, and local electrician fees.

Usually, a light switch goes bad due to normal wear and tear. Light switches are mechanical devices with internal moving parts. These parts make contact with each other, and, over time, the friction can wear them down, causing the switch to feel loose, arc, or fail to operate. 

Yes, you should purchase and use an extension cord rated for outdoor use to power Christmas lights. Extension cords intended for indoor use do not have the same protective properties as outdoor versions, so they can’t withstand the exposure to the outdoor elements. Be sure to plug your Christmas lights into outdoor extension cords only.
