"BJ was the first to respond (within minutes) to my request for help with an electrical issue I was having in my garage. Initially, we both thought it was an issue with a bad GFI so he replaced it. However, that proved to not be the case, rather it was an external plug (sharing the same wall) that was connected to a bad extension cord...thus the outage at the GFI and all the outlets in the garage. He continued to check in over the course of the next two days to verify that the solution was working. I really appreciated the diligence and the thoroughness. I would highly recommend Little Buddy!"

"Dave, the owner, is a very customer service oriented professional. He quickly diagnosed the 2 problems that I had and offered suggestions on how to repair the situations. I chose to order the part myself for one of the problems. He repaired out stair lights within minutes. There is a $100 minimum charge for coming out that you should be aware of, but I would highly recommend Dave and Tomahawk Electric, Inc. if you are looking for a dependable electrician."

"Joshua is a very detail oriented trades person and really took interest in my project and showed a high level of enthusiasm. He listened to my concerns and explained everything he planned to do to fix the numerous (and somewhat complex) problems with my electrical panel and old wiring. He was super easy to communicate with and really made me feel comfortable around him and comfortable knowing he was going to make my home electrical system safe. I wouldnâ t hesitate to recommend him to anyone and Iâ ll be using him for future electrical projects too. He was slightly more expensive than other quotes I received yet still very competitive and when considering the extra time he spent fixing things that werenâ t in the quote I believe the price was spot on."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

An AC disconnect, also known as a switch box or fuse box, is a safety switch that allows the AC’s electrical supply to be turned off from the outside, usually done by a mechanical contractor coming to work on your unit. The box is protected from the weather by a cover or may be designed as a pull-out unit. Your local code determines where the AC disconnect must be mounted, but it's usually close to your outdoor AC unit.

In the majority of cases, you can replace an outlet with a USB outlet. USB charging receptacles install in the same spot as standard outlets and any electrician worth their salt is more than familiar with the replacement process. Additionally, it’s possible to replace yourself, but only if you have prior experience with your home’s electrical system, as it requires handling of wires.

With AC wiring, which is the kind most likely you’ll find at home, the black wire is “hot,” and the white is “neutral.” The bare or green wire is considered the safety ground wire. If you encounter DC wiring, it’s relatively easy to tell positive or negative wires apart. red wires are used to indicate positive voltage and black wires indicate negative voltage.

Yes, a light switch still has power even when switched off. Switches only interrupt or continue the flow of electricity into a fixture or outlet; they do not shut off the power flowing into the wire. The only way to shut off power in a light switch is to turn off the power at the circuit breaker.

The Biden Administration banned the sale of incandescent light bulbs for general service lamps in 2023. All household light bulbs must meet a minimum efficiency of 45 lumens per watt, three times that of a standard incandescent light bulb. 

The main motivation was to improve energy efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. It is expected that banning incandescent light bulbs will cut over 200 million metric tons of carbon emissions over the next 30 years. Some bulbs are exempt, like chandelier lights and Christmas lights.
