"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."

"Rich was excellent he was knowledgeable and efficient and fair-minded and his pricing. I would strongly recommend him to anyone for both electrical work and the minor changes to a generator. He solved two other small electrical problems for me that were wiring oriented."

"Cody came out and did a fantastic job. Installed an attic fan and ran electric to a shed away from the house and ran electric around a patio outside. Cody is knowledgeable and does a great job. He even took extra time at the end to clean up more than I expected, I didn’t have to do a thing, and I’m always prepared to do a little clean up at the end. His prices are very fair, he is honest and hard working. Would highly recommend to anyone that needs electrical work done."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

How far you can run underground electric depends on the wire gauge (generally AWG) and the circuit voltage. Too much voltage drop in an electrical circuit can negatively affect performance, so the smaller the voltage drop, the better. Ideally, it shouldn't exceed 3%. The smaller the wire and the longer the run, the more significant the voltage drop. 

For example, with a 120-volt circuit, you can run 60 feet of 12 AWG cable without losing more than 3% voltage. With a 240-volt circuit, you can run 120 feet of 12 AWG wire while maintaining a voltage drop of 3% or less.

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

Yes, you can daisy chain outlets, which involves connecting multiple outlets in series. However, ensuring the circuit can handle the additional load is important to avoid overloading and tripping the breaker. The total number of outlets on a single circuit should not exceed the recommended limit, typically eight on a 15-amp circuit. Hiring a licensed electrician is always advisable for complex installations or if you're unsure of what to do.

By nature, two-prong outlets aren't grounded—but the box they run to might be, which makes them safer. The safest way to test if an outlet is grounded is to purchase a circuit tester, which cost about $20 at home improvement stores. 

If you discover your outlet (or outlets) aren't grounded, know that this greatly increases your risk of personal injury and electrical fires. You may want to consider installing new three-prong ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets. On average, the cost to install GFCI outlets is about $210 per outlet.

You should never use a plug with burn marks because it can cause a fire or even an electrical shock. The burn marks could be caused by a dangerous underlying electrical problem, so it’s important to call a qualified electrician right away.
