I specialize in commercial work but I have done a lot of residential work. I’m well versed in service upgrades, fishing walls, sub panels, and troubleshooting.

"When I began my search for an electrician to install electrical outlets outside for a pool filter and pump, I had no idea what I needed or what was required. I found BK Electrical Solutions thru referrals from FB friends. Brandon came to my home a few days later, listened to what my goals were and explained the work that would occur, the timeline and, after some measurements, an estimate. A few weeks later, he returned to complete the work. He completed the work on-time and within budget. He even had to shimmy under a low deck to run lines along house. Aside from those items, I found him to be professional, friendly, courteous, and incredibly knowledgeable. My late husband did electrical work and he was a stickler for neatness when running electrical lines and it’s something that I’m so used to hearing, that I look for it myself. Brandon’s work was impeccable. I would highly recommend BK Electrical Solutions for any of your electrical needs."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You can add an electrical outlet outside by sending a wire through the wall from an existing interior outlet. Without having to open up walls, you can thread a new electrical cable from the existing outlet through the wall and to the exterior. You’ll need to cut a hole in the siding to place your new outlet. Ensure that your outdoor outlet is a GFCI outlet (ground fault circuit interrupter outlet) per the National Electrical Code. It’s best to hire an electrician to add an outdoor outlet unless you have previous electrical experience.

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.

If you have a lamp that flickers or doesn’t stay on, it’s a sign that it’s time to rewire it. Additionally, it’s important to rewire antique lamps so they’re safe to continue using without the risk of an electrical fire. If the plug on your lamp is more than 15 years old or you notice poor performance like flickering, you should hire a lamp repair service to rewire it. If you’re upgrading the bulbs in an antique lamp from incandescent to LED or CFL bulbs, rewire it so it’s compatible with the modern bulbs.

While it’s not possible to put a main breaker in a main lug panel, it’s possible to convert a main lug to a main breaker. Converting to a main breaker panel offers increased safety, simplified control, compliance with building codes, and adaptation to changing electrical needs, especially when adding new circuits or upgrading the system.

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.
