"I had a lot of work that needed done. Bohemia electricians listened to what I needed done, made suggestions and provided written quote for each work item. If I needed electrical work done again, I’d hired them in a heartbeat. They were professional, cleaned up the area each time they worked. Coordinated with other contractors - plumbing, drywall, hvac, etc effectively."

"Incredible and precise craftsmanship! Taylor finished the installation of the last appliance of a four piece suite of Bosch kitchen appliances upgrades for us. We struggled to find some one to install a tricky over the range microwave - he worked his magic seamlessly! We will definitely continue to consult with him in the future! Highly recommend his services!!"

"On time and efficient. I added a few changes along the way so it took a couple days more then quoted but I wasnâ t expecting it not to be a bit longer. They kept me informed daily what all was going to happen for the day. Very pleased."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

How far you can run underground electric depends on the wire gauge (generally AWG) and the circuit voltage. Too much voltage drop in an electrical circuit can negatively affect performance, so the smaller the voltage drop, the better. Ideally, it shouldn't exceed 3%. The smaller the wire and the longer the run, the more significant the voltage drop. 

For example, with a 120-volt circuit, you can run 60 feet of 12 AWG cable without losing more than 3% voltage. With a 240-volt circuit, you can run 120 feet of 12 AWG wire while maintaining a voltage drop of 3% or less.

To install an outlet from existing wiring, you’ll need to choose a location where you can already access existing wiring. The easiest way to do this is to install an outlet on the other side of the wall of an existing outlet. 

Since the wiring is already in place, all you have to do is connect a new cable to the existing wiring and then connect the correct wires through the wall—to the new electrical outlet. Place your new outlet into the opening in the wall and then connect the correct wires to the appropriate terminal screws.

Simple moves on the same base or within a few feet will not take long, roughly three to four hours. Larger moves onto a new wall or transitioning a box from inside to outside will take 8 to 12 hours to complete. Ask your electrician for a time estimate prior to installation.

If there isn’t a C-wire on your thermostat, you can repurpose the G-wire. The G-wire controls the fan independently of the other controls on your thermostat, so the fan-only function won’t work if you decide to go this route.

A pigtail is the only safe way to connect an electrical device to more than one circuit wire. Connecting multiple wires to a single screw terminal is extremely dangerous and must never be done. Many electricians will opt for pigtails even when there are multiple screw terminals available so that the device in question won’t halt the flow of downstream current when a problem arises.
