"The Electrician called me immediately after I filled out the form on Service Magic. He was able to come and replace a bad switch i had within three hours of my having spoken with him. He was polite, professional and finished the job quickly and at an excellent price. I was very happy with the speed and quality of the service and would definitely use BN Electric again."

"Definitely would recommend. Rich and his assistant did a great job at a great price. They fixed multiple electrical issues on our 1940's home that we had just purchased. Some items were just updates like changing a dryer plug from a 3 prong to a 4 prong but others were safety issues such as changing an outdoor outlet to a GFI. We found Rich to be straight forward and easy to work with. We will not hesitate to call him for future electrical needs."

"Prodigy was very responsive and was able to install a new electric box within 1 day when the power was continuously going out in my home. The new main breaker and panel box fixed my issue and we were grateful that Prodigy was able to fit us in within 24 hours of the request! Great customer service."

"I recently had a new breaker box installed and the entire exterior wiring of my home reconstructed, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. The work was completed with exceptional professionalism, honesty, and attention to detail from start to finish. The team took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and provided straightforward recommendations without any pressure or unnecessary upselling. Their expertise and integrity gave me confidence that the job was being done right. The quality of the workmanship was excellent, and the project was completed efficiently and safely. The exterior wiring reconstruction looks great, and the new breaker box installation was done neatly and professionally. They left the work area clean and treated my property with respect throughout the process. If you're looking for electricians who are knowledgeable, reliable, honest, and truly committed to doing quality work, I highly recommend them. Five stars all the"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

When combined with a substantial solar system, if you have enough Powerwalls, you could go off-grid and be energy independent. But remember, you'd need enough Powerwalls to power your whole home continuously because a single Powerwall can’t power large appliances for extended periods. One Powerwall is able to power an average-sized home's emergency circuits, lights, and outlets. To power large appliances, you likely need two or three Powerwalls.

There are a few reasons your lights may be on, but the rest of your electrical outlets and appliances are not working. The first is that while one circuit blew out, the lights may be on another circuit than your other electrical fixtures. Alternatively, your powerless appliances may be plugged into a GFCI outlet that was tripped and needs to be reset. If these issues aren’t responsible for the problem, you may have dead outlets or a wiring issue. Either way, you should contact an electrician to identify and fix the issue.

Unfortunately, a partial power outage without a tripped breaker often means you have a major wiring issue or that the breaker itself is going bad. When the power is out in one room but the breaker is not tripped, you need to call an electrician as soon as possible to identify the cause of the problem and repair it.

Smoke detectors come in two different options: hardwired or battery-operated. While hardwired units are attached directly to the home’s electrical system, a battery-operated smoke detector only needs a simple battery for operation and can be placed virtually anywhere in your home. Some homeowners may mistakenly think their battery-operated units are hardwired in because all their units are interconnected, but many battery-operated units can operate within a smoke alarm network in your home.

Using a wire stripper/cutter, strip about 1/2 inch to 1 inch of sheathing from electric wires, depending on the application. A self-adjusting wire stripper/cutter works best, but a standard wire stripper/cutter with holes for different gauges of wire works as well to cut and strip away the sheath without damaging the copper wire inside.
