"My friend is in the hospital recovering from major surgery. His wife is at home taking care of 3 adolescent boys from foster care. The home gets hit with a bed bug infestation and they need to relocate to an old mobile home while their house is being fumigated. I called ProTech on Friday afternoon and explained I needed to help my friend as there was an electrical issue at the trailer that needed to be fixed so the family could stay there. Less than 24 hours later their technician was at the trailer and fixed all the problems. Communication was great and constant, price was very fair and they did all this from one phone call. They didn't know me. They accepted payment over the phone by credit card and followed up to make sure everything was good. I could not speak more highly of my satisfaction with this company. Thank you Pro-Tech for relieving stress from my friend's family during this time of crisis."

"I needed some help wiring my basement and Troy and his team were able to help me complete the job without a hitch. They were professional, knowledgeable, and worked fast. I take great comfort knowing that I have an electrician that I can count on. I couldn't recommend Troy and his Mr. Electric team enough for all your electrical needs."

"New service box installed and interlock installed for generator emergency back up, add two direct lines to house and 2 GFI's. Called 4 electrical contractors 2 replied, Rinker came to give an estimate within days. Second contractor was weeks later and never mentioned and Interlock system, and quote was out of limits. Great job done fast efficient, very clean when done, all breakers marked clear and neat. Very good instructions on how to use the Interlock setup. Any job I need in the future this is the company I will use, hands down., THANK YOU to the Rinker team. Mike and Eileen Russo"

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

While the National Electrical Code (NEC) does not set a strict limit, a common guideline is to have a maximum of eight outlets or receptacles on a 15-amp circuit. This rule of thumb, which equates to about one outlet per 1.5 amps, helps keep the total electrical load safely below 80% of the circuit breaker's capacity. It is important to consider the power demands of any devices or appliances that will be plugged in, as overloading a circuit can lead to tripped breakers or create a fire hazard. To ensure the safety and code compliance of your electrical system, consult with a licensed electrician.

Whether you need electrical upgrades depends on the electronics your game room includes. If your game room will have high-powered electronics, arcade machines, or a home theater, you may need to upgrade your electrical panel or add dedicated circuits. An electrician can assess your current system and provide an estimate for any necessary upgrades.

The safest way to pull an electrical cord from the wall outlet is by gently but firmly grabbing the plug and pulling it out. Pulling on the cord instead of the plug can cause damage to the cord, leading to an increased risk of electrical problems like fire or electric shock. If you notice damaged wiring on an appliance or device, it’s best to stop using it immediately.

You can bury underground electrical wire six inches deep—but only if you use a rigid metal electrical conduit. For rigid, non-metallic conduits, bury the wire at least 12 inches deep. If using an underground feeder cable rated for direct burial, you'll need to place it at least 18 inches deep, as it has no conduit for extra protection.

It's possible to get power from an outlet for a light switch. However, you must install additional wiring to get current from the outlet to the switch and from the switch to the load it will control. Also, you must ensure that the outlet's electrical circuit can accommodate the additional demand.
