"Greg at "Let there be light" electric did a great service for me. He was flexible with scheduling. Showed up on time. We needed to trouble shoot some , to figure exactly where the problem was. He was quite knowledgable throughout the processes of elimination. Ultimately we found the best solution and stayed completely in budget. It's been 2 weeks now and everything is still working as it should. Great deal all the way around."

"Called Justin the owner at about 10 or 10:30 on Friday Jan 13 and his brother installed a replacement electric baseboard heating unit by 10:30 on Saturday January 14 for only a nominal extra charge for Saturday. Devon his brother could not have been nicer and more professional and insured that the rest of the wiring for the entire house was fine including the extensive wiring for baseboard heat throughout the house. I intend to have them come replace te rest of the units that need replacing"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The most common gauge for indoor outlets around your home is 12- and 14-gauge wires. But if you’re working with larger appliances like ovens, washing machines, or dryers (all of which require more amplitude), you might find 10-, eight-, or six-gauge wires to help support those hefty appliances.

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.

With AC wiring, which is the kind most likely you’ll find at home, the black wire is “hot,” and the white is “neutral.” The bare or green wire is considered the safety ground wire. If you encounter DC wiring, it’s relatively easy to tell positive or negative wires apart. red wires are used to indicate positive voltage and black wires indicate negative voltage.

No, sconces don’t have to be hardwired, but they can be for a more permanent solution. Sconces come in various styles, sizes, and finishes as well as types of installation. Plug-in wall sconces can be plugged into a nearby outlet, and battery-powered sconces can be mounted to the wall. 

You can plug your electric car into a regular 120-volt household outlet only if you’re using a Level 1 charger. This method is slower and may take several days to fully charge your EV. For faster charging, you’ll need a Level 2 charger, which requires a 220- or 240-volt outlet.
