"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

Upgrading a two-prong outlet to a three-prong outlet typically costs between $20 and $50 per outlet if the electrical box is already grounded. However, the cost can increase significantly if the system is not grounded, as this may require grounding the box or upgrading your electrical panel. Electricians generally charge between $50 and $100 per hour for labor, and the total cost for a more complex installation could range from $130 to $300.

No, not all thermostats require a C-wire. Older manual and programmable thermostats typically do not need one. While many smart thermostats do require a C-wire to function correctly, some models can operate without one, often at the expense of certain features. A C-wire provides a constant source of power, which enables the thermostat to stay connected to Wi-Fi and keep its display screen lit on-demand. If you are upgrading from an older thermostat to a smart model that requires a C-wire, you may need to install one first for it to work as intended.

To ensure batteries stop charging when they’re full, you’ll need to install a charge controller that determines when the battery is full. Once the battery is fully charged, the charge controller will stop the energy flow or divert the energy to the grid or other appliances. Without a charge controller, the battery may continue to charge, which can lead to less productivity and potential damage.

The best place to put an electrical outlet depends on your needs. A good rule of thumb is to install outlets every 6 feet in large rooms. Hallways over 10 feet long need one electrical outlet minimum. 

If you find yourself needing extra plug-ins for all of your gadgets, you may want to increase the number of electrical outlets in your room. When adding outlets, keep in mind that older homes could have outdated electrical panels. In these cases, you may need a pro to upgrade you from 100-amp to 200-amp service before increasing the power load.

The standard voltage for United States power outlets isn’t shared around the world, and neither is the shape of the power connector. This is why you need travel adapters when spending time abroad. Where the United States typically uses 110/120V outlets, outlets in Europe typically use 220/240V. Power outlets can vary in other ways around the world, too. Not everyone uses the 60Hz frequency, for example, and not everyone even uses AC power in outlets. Always do your research when traveling to see what you need.
