"My wife enjoyed how non-evasive he was, as she was working from home that day. All work was completed, and there wasn't any hard up-selling for products or scare tactics, which occurred with a "well known" electric company. It was just a man who tried getting as much as possible done within the allotted time. We've since used him again."

"I hired Mr. Electric to change a fuse box to a breaker panel and update the electrical for the house. I talked to Jonathan who set up the appointments, sent email messages that included the picture of the technician. The technician, Nathanial was very efficient in getting the job done quickly."

"Great experience with this electrician! He did an excellent job replacing our kitchen light fixtures. Everything looks great, works perfectly, and they were professional, efficient, and clearly knew what they were doing. We especially appreciated that they came out on a Saturday, which was incredibly convenient. Highly recommend"

"Proactive Industries installed an outlet for my EV charger station. The work was excellent and the price was very reasonable. Unlike other companies I was not sold on services I do not need. I definitely recommend Proactive Industries. Straight forward, excellent work. Thank you again"

"Michael came out and installed an outlet for me in a timely manner at a very reasonable cost. I was extremely pleased with the quality of his work, professionalism, and knowledge. Michael was friendly, efficient, and made sure everything was done right. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing electrical work and will use him again in the future."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The American Wire Gauge system calculates wire size diameters using the complicated formula D(AWG)=.005·92((36-AWG)/39) inch. A simpler rule of thumb is that every six-gauge decrease doubles the wire diameter, and every three-gauge decrease doubles the wire’s cross-sectional area. On the other hand, wavenumbers are typically measured in reciprocal meters (1/m or m−1) or reciprocal centimeters (1/cm or cm−1).

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.

Yes, many remodels include electrical upgrades for lighting, outlets, or charging stations. Confirm with your contractor.

It might seem tempting to use 14-gauge wires for your outlets, as they can run a little cheaper. But, when it comes to electrical work, it’s best not to cut costs less you overload your circuit. A 12-gauge wire will ensure that you’re protecting the outlet (and your circuit breaker) from any potential overloads that might incur, as it can handle a little more amplitude than a 14-gauge wire.

The Occupational Safety and Home Administration (OSHA) requires an electrical panel to have a minimum of three feet (36 inches) of room from the front of the panel to the closest obstacle. In this case, the word obstacle refers to nearly everything, including walls, machines, and other fixed objects. Additionally, panels require at least 6½ feet of headroom in the area directly in front of the fixture. These requirements help ensure safe use of the panel and allow electricians plenty of room to work.
