"Mike and Trevor, of Freedom Electrical, upgraded my home electrical service from 100 Amp to 200 Amp service. Mike provided a cost proposal based on a site visit. He was professional, competent, and learned what my needs were. When I accepted the proposal and initiated work, Freedom Electrical provided me updates on when they would be to my home and that was based on when the electric company would be available to shut down the house electricity. They arrived in the early morning on the scheduled date and worked until the project was completed, about 8 hours. I visited each of them every couple of hours to see the progress, and ask questions. They both were happy to answer my questions. Everything went without a hitch and the new panel had wires run to circuit breakers that looked so organized it reminded me of the lines on a computer chip circuit board! They were able to run a bran new 240 volt 40 Amp circuit with 6 gauge wire from the new panel through my basement wall to the outside of my house and terminate the circuit at an 'emergency shutoff' box. The incoming service line and the new circuit had putty packed around the cables where they entered the house (to prevent insects / rodents from entering through the holes). Before the left the site, I was informed that an inspector would be coming by. Once the inspector arrived and noticed the 'Freedom Electrical' sticker on my new panel, he said something like 'oh yah, these guys make my job real easy - they do the best work I have ever seen'. I highly recommend Freedom Electrical for anything requiring a professional electrician."

"Excellent. Electrical work in a 120 year old house in not easy at best, its a real challenge that includes working in the old attic and basement. The fans are beautiful and both working as promised. They cleaned up after the job and worked steady the whole time they were here. Could not be more pleased and will use them again whenever I need electrical work done. Thanks!"

"We really like working with Ian. He was able to work with us on what we needed. Just wanted to replace a 50-year old electric panel that was not safe for our new house and bump up to a 200-amp service. Not we needed 200-amps, but it is nice for any expansion or future projects we may have. HIs team was quick and took care of everything. Even contacted the township for permitting. And the township even came by a week later to upgrade the service line to the house to accommodate the 200-amp service. Feel like we are in a much safer house now! Appreciate IEC and will call them for any additional or service needs! (old panel on left - new on right!)"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The most common type of electrical outlet is a 3-prong outlet, which has two flat blades (one is wider than the other) and a round grounding pin. Older homes typically have 2-prong outlets that aren’t as safe as more modern options and are generally not up to current electrical codes.  Other outlets you can find in your home include 20A, 125 volt varieties for larger appliances like refrigerators or washing machines. 

There are also GFCI outlets, which protect against electrical shock in wet areas, such as bathrooms and kitchens, and arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) outlets, which protect against electrical fires caused by arcing.

Before you start doing anything else, you must call your electric company to confirm their process. It is technically their meter that you’re moving, so there’s really no such thing as free rein. Moving the meter generally involves disconnecting power from the utility company, disconnecting the cables that run into your electrical panel, and dismounting the meter assembly. Once uninstalled, a handyperson will remount and reconnect the wiring in its new location.

Outlets with only two slots have no ground connection. That’s more common on very old outlets, which means it’s more likely the outlet won’t be polarized. You’ll have to closely examine the slots to see if there’s a size difference indicating polarization. Keep in mind outlets this old are usually out of code and should be replaced if you’re doing any electrical work.

Hawaii is currently rated as the most expensive state for utilities. How much are utilities for a house in Hawaii? With electricity costs in Hawaii totaling nearly 42 cents per kilowatt-hour, residents are paying more to run their households than any other residents. Electricity costs in Hawaii are so high, mostly due to the fact that most of the electricity available to residents is produced using oil that must be shipped in from other places.

Incandescent lights are glass bulbs with metallic filaments inside, while LEDs feature “light emitting diodes” that illuminate when they come in contact with an electrical current. You can buy either for your Christmas lights, but note that LED lights are more energy-efficient and have a longer lifespan.
