"I hired Hughes Electrical to install my electric vehicle charging station in my garage, and they did a wonderful job! William and his apprentice ran a new 50 amp electrical line from my electric box to my charging station, going through the basement and up the side wall. Afterwards, they gave me a free inspection and an estimate for new outlets outside. I am very pleased to have worked with them and will be recommending them to all my neighbors!"
"Breandon Electric was incredibly helpful and got the job done quickly and efficiently. They offered a reasonable price for the job and I had no issues with their service."

"After waking up to the smell of burning dust and a noise that could not mean anything good, my husband and I realized that our 18 year old gas furnace was trying to die on us. Not a good feeling to say the least. I had used HL Bowman last summer for some plumbing work and was VERY pleased. I called them fairly early this morning, and to be honest I assumed that I would get an answering service or answering machine. Instead, the phone was answered on the 2nd ring and in less than 3 minutes I had a service call scheduled. Responsive? You bet! I was told a technician would arrive late morning and a technician arrived by 10:30. Punctual? Absolutely! The technician (I hate that I forgot his name) diagnosed our problem almost immediately and had us up and running by 12:00. (And that includes the time it took him to go pick up the part we needed). Quality, Integrity and Professionalism beyond compare! Thank you H.L. Bowman for being an honest and professional company. I will tell all of my neighbors and friends about you! My only regret is that you don't also do electrical work. :)
Yes, it's possible to have electrical receptacles and overhead lights on the same circuit. The reason is that lights typically use much less power than large appliances, so combining them won't overload your circuit. By doing this, you can distribute the power consumption throughout the breakers in your panel more efficiently, which can be helpful if you have a lot of different electrical devices in your home.
If you've ever tried to run your dishwasher while drying your hair, you’ll understand why dedicated circuits are essential for preventing blown fuses. Appliances that require more electricity than the circuit can handle could blow fuses, trip breakers, overheat, and risk an electrical fire.
Having a dedicated circuit ensures that your appliance gets the current it needs without overloading the other circuits in your home.
If there isn’t a C-wire on your thermostat, you can repurpose the G-wire. The G-wire controls the fan independently of the other controls on your thermostat, so the fan-only function won’t work if you decide to go this route.
Yes, a light switch still has power even when switched off. Switches only interrupt or continue the flow of electricity into a fixture or outlet; they do not shut off the power flowing into the wire. The only way to shut off power in a light switch is to turn off the power at the circuit breaker.
Depending on complexity and materials, costs range from $150 to $500 per fixture.
