"Evol Electric is the tops! We requested quotes from 4 other contractors, but for the QUALITY and price, Evol canâ t be beat. They upgraded our 100-year old home, making it safe, bright, and new. Chyke and Denise are deeply knowledgeable, flexible, responsive, and personable to boot: Iâ d hire them again in a flash, and will heartily recommend them to all."

"Hammer Electric showed up early for the appointment and was very nice and professional. Their pricing was fair for the 200-amp service and recess lighting they added for mew. They did an amazing job. Very neat while working and cleaned up their work area when they left. I will hire again for my rental properties and refer others. I highly recommend them for any electrical needs."

"JDV Electric recently replaced my electrical panel and delivered outstanding service from start to finish. The technicians were professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. Before beginning the work, they took the time to remove the panel cover and thoroughly explain the existing damage, as well as how to prevent similar issues in the future. Unlike other companies that simply provided quotes without any explanation, JDV made sure I fully understood both the problem and their proposed solution. Their attention to detail and clear communication set them apart. The team worked efficiently and left the work area spotless, it was as if they had never been there. It?s rare to have a contractor complete a job without needing any cleanup afterward. I highly recommend JDV Electric for any electrical needs, and I will absolutely be using them again for future projects."

"We solicited three bids for the electrical work we wanted done in our home. We met representatives of three companies from our search of Angieâ s List and Home Advisor and received three different bids on the job. We then did out due diligence reading customer reviews and chose Generation 3 Electrical & HVAC. From proposal to completion, the people we interacted with were courteous, considerate, and professional. If youâ re looking for a company who employs licensed electricians who take pride in their work and know how to treat their customers, we highly recommend Generation 3 Electrical & HVAC. Our family wants to thank the office manager, Nicole, and the electricians, Corey, Ed, and Kevin for being courteous, answering all our questions, and for the great work you did at our home."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You can determine whether you have a double-pole switch by examining its wiring. Unlike single-pole switches, which have two brass-colored terminals, double-pole switches feature four. These switches are typically only found near high-powered appliances such as electric furnaces or water heaters. If you’re unsure what type of switch you have, contact a local electrician to confirm.

Yes, you must use an extension cord specifically rated for outdoor use to power outdoor lights, such as Christmas lights. Extension cords intended for indoor use lack the protective properties to withstand exposure to outdoor elements. To safely hang and power lights outside your house or in your yard, always connect them to an outdoor power source using an outdoor-rated extension cord.

Smart meters send the readings over a wireless wide area network (WAN) to the power company. This network allows sending small amounts of data slowly over long distances, which is perfect for smart meter readings that occur monthly. If you would prefer a smart meter, contact your power company and consider springing for the cost of replacing your electric meter.

Most upgrades take 1-5 days, depending on building size and wiring complexity.

A ground wire is not required for GFCI to work. A ground is a third wire in an outlet in addition to the live and neutral wires. It serves as an escape conduit for electricity in case of a short circuit. If a ground wire is present, installers should connect it to the appropriate terminal. Otherwise, a GFCI will work fine without it.
