"Jusstin and Devon know their business--they're efficient, reliable, personable, and reasonably priced. Devon did a fantastic job of diagnosing problems with a patio lighting system in a place we'd just purchased, and about whose wiring we knew nothing. He figured it all out--chased down the problem, and fixed it! Wentzel Electric is all about code and certification, reassuring when we see what other less-qualified electricians and DIYers have installed in the past."
"Raudy Electric delivers exceptional service that stands out. He, himself is incredibly personable and friendly, making the entire experience stress-free from start to finish. His thorough approach ensures that no detail is overlooked, and he goes above and beyond to be helpful. The pricing is very fair, offering excellent value for the quality of work provided. On top of that, the job was completed quickly without sacrificing attention to detail. If you're looking for a reliable and efficient electrician, Raudy Electric is the perfect choice! Highly recommended."

"I hired MRA Electric to install a new electrical panel, new roof fan, and new wiring for a dryer I was moving. Nick is very professional, explained everything I needed done and was always on time. Lynne is the in-house support manager and I canâ t say enough good about her! I highly recommend the team of MRA and will be using them again."
"Troy was awesome. Incredibly professional, punctual, honest and kind. He fixed problems cause by another electrician/contractor and made it look easy. I would highly recommend him and will use him for all future electrical needs."
Yes, you can get shocked while using a multimeter if:
You touch the metal tip while testing a live current.
The meter isn’t properly rated for the voltage.
The meter picks up on transient voltage that’s above the range you’ve set.
The meter has defective parts.
You can prevent shock and personal injury by using a multimeter properly and maintaining your device.
If you’re unsure how to use a multimeter or want help with your project, contact a local electrician to get the job done.
On average, the cost to run electricity to an above ground pool is about $1,000. Certain factors can increase or cut these costs. For example, a larger pool or one farther from your house may require additional trenching for wiring, bringing costs as high as $4,000. On the other hand, a standard-sized pool closer to your home may only cost $350 to hook up to electricity.
An outlet can trip because the circuit it’s on is overloaded, meaning the devices plugged into it are drawing more power than the circuit can safely carry. Another culprit could be because a power surge from a storm or accident caused a problem with your local electrical grid or there’s a short or a fault causing power to run through the circuit in a dangerous or unplanned way.
Yes, you can use a dimmer switch with an LED fixture, but it must be a dimmer that is compatible with LEDs. Check the manufacturer’s information to ensure the dimmer works with LEDs, as not all dimmers are compatible with them. Many smart light switches accept LEDs, but be sure to read the details on the packaging.
Outlets do wear out, usually within 15-25 years, but they can fail even sooner than that —sometimes in a matter of years. If your plugs always slide out after you put them in, this is a sign your outlets need to be replaced. Additionally, if your outlets are damaged, cracked, discolored, or regularly tripping the circuit breaker, they may be at the end of their life.
