"We had an excellent experience with Awesome Electrical Services updating our historic home from outdated knob-and-tube wiring to a modern electrical system. Brian was incredibly communicative, taking the time to discuss the project, timeline, and costs while patiently answering all of our questions. Patty was wonderful, making scheduling, paperwork, and communication easy and efficient. Their entire crew was knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and respectful. JR and Nick were exceptional foremen who went above and beyond to keep the project on track and ensure every detail was addressed. We'd also like to thank Mike, Julian, Trey, and Chris for their professionalism and craftsmanship. Rewiring an older home is a major undertaking, but they made the process smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend Awesome Electrical Services, especially for owners of older homes."

"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."

"Prodigy Electrical is top notch!! From the moment they stepped on the property, they were professional. They arrived at 8:00 A.M. and hit the floor running. Keaton (owner), Simon ( lead tech), Ken and Tim went right to what had to be done. We were having the main panel upgraded: 2 ceiling fans, and their circuits installed: an outdoor box and cabling installed for the new hot tub, and a new meter / main switch installed. They kept us informed the whole time. Cleaned up after each stage of install. When they were done (4:15 P.M.), you wouldnt have known that they were here. They cleaned up every site they worked in. Took all the mess and garbage with them. We would and do highly recommend Prodigy Electrical Group. You will be very happy you hired them. Andrew & Cyndi K. Derry, PA"

"240V line installed for dryer hook-up. Tom let me know he was on his way, surveyed the area, provided quote. Once accepted, he ran wiring to panel and installed new plug/mounted it on the stone wall with wood panel cut out and was done in about 2 hours. Cleaned up the area and moved on. On time, on target-all I could ask for. Well done!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

According to the National Electrical Code® (NEC®), the electrical code for kitchen outlets states that electrical outlets in a kitchen should be installed no more than 48 inches apart. This ensures that a receptacle is no further away than 24 inches from any place on the countertop. Countertops wider than 12 inches need an outlet on the wall above the countertop.

Different fences use different amounts of electricity, but their operating costs are very low overall. Electric fences pull between 4 and 25 watts from the system if you have an average-sized yard. Barring any complicated math, you can expect an average electric fence to cost less than $5 a month to run. Aboveground electric fences, which are not typical for residential use or small animals, can cost more, but you shouldn't notice a significant change in your electric bill. 

Some portable cooktops are compatible with standard 120-volt outlets, but most induction (and electric) ranges and stoves need a dedicated 220- or 240-volt circuit and 40 to 50 amps to work. If you are replacing an old electric range with an induction one, you likely already have the proper outlet, but it’s worth checking with a local appliance installation company.

GFCI stands for ground fault circuit interrupter, which means it has the ability to detect a ground fault and shut the circuit down before it creates hazards. General breakers may also do that because ground faults can cause overloads, but they’re more focused on amp overloads from any cause. GFCIs are often installed in specific outlets, but breakers can come with GFCI capabilities built in for broader ground fault protection.

A piggyback circuit breaker, also known as a tandem or double-stuff breaker, combines two separate circuits into a single slot in a breaker panel. This design allows adding more circuits without a larger panel, making it a space-saving solution. Each breaker in the piggyback unit operates independently, protecting two circuits in one standard breaker slot. This is especially useful in older panels with limited space for additional breakers.
