"We hired Young's Electrical Service after receiving quotes from several other companies and having them not show up. Young's arrived when promised, meticulously completed the install and cleaned up after the project. We plan to hire them for additional work in the future."

"I hired Lights On Electric to run an underground line from the electric panel in my home to my new storage shed, 80 feet within the home and 100 feet buried conduit to the electric panel in the shed. This required a rental trencher and some difficult hand digging. The work was done in one day by Hank and Chris. They are able technicians and they did an excellent job. Hank and Chris are a pleasure to work with. I'm very happy with the results."

"My experience with Jdv Electric was incredible. This company was on time proficient and effective. They replaced all the defective outlets and switches in My Home the same day they came out. I am a new customer with Jdv Electric now I will only use and refer Jdv Electric to my friends and family. One of the best parts about using Jdv Electric their electricians are drug tested, and background check that made my wife very happy."

"I had new outside service and a new panel installed in my row home. Mr. Carter was very knowledgeable about old row house wiring. He arrived at the time he stated, took down the old (50+ years) wiring coming into the house from the street, replaced my old breaker (panel) box and labeled the switches (which switch turned the electric on and off in each room). He and his assistant were very pleasant, worked very efficiently, explained the work being done and answered the many questions I had regarding old row homes and electrical wiring. We did a walk through to discuss future electrical projects. He impressed neighbor who pretty much hired him on the spot. I will be referring him to my friends."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, blue wires can be hot wires in the U.S. However, they are less common in residential properties than red and black hot wires. Blue wires are typically used as traveler wires in three-way and four-way switches, as well as ceiling fans. They allow fixtures to be controlled by multiple switches, like when there are switches at the top and bottom of a staircase for the same light.

Switching the hot and neutral wires in an outlet or receptacle, a condition known as reverse polarity, is dangerous. While the outlet will still function and provide power, it creates a significant electrical shock hazard because anything plugged into it will remain electrified even when switched off. If you touch a conductive part of the appliance, such as the metal components of a toaster, you could receive an electric shock.

Watts and volts represent distinct aspects of a light bulb’s functionality. Volts measure the electrical force that drives the current through the bulb, determining its compatibility with the power source. Watts, on the other hand, quantify the bulb’s power consumption and indicate its brightness level. Higher watts generally mean a brighter bulb.

No, a ceiling fan doesn’t have to be wired to a switch, but it’s often more convenient. You can use the included pull chain if your ceiling isn’t too high or install a remote module later, as they are a cheap, easy-to-install option that’ll let you control both the fan and light fixture.

While most electrical items can be plugged into a GFCI outlet, some appliances with internal or stationary motors, such as refrigerators, vent fans, and fluorescent lighting, can cause nuisance tripping. This happens because they experience a small, normal amount of current leakage, which can cause the GFCI to trip even when the appliance is working correctly. Although this is not a safety hazard, it can be inconvenient and may cause the GFCI outlet to wear out faster. For this reason, it is often better to plug these types of appliances into a standard outlet. Additionally, electrical circuits over 100 feet long can sometimes cause tripping. Some appliances, like hair dryers, have their own built-in GFCI protection, so connecting them to a standard outlet is fine.
