"We contacted Glenn upon moving into our new house. At our request, Glenn took the time to educate us about the electrical work in our home. He was punctual and responsive to our requests and questions. We realized very quickly that Glenn is very knowledgeable and honest. We had a punch list of electrical work that we wanted to complete (e.g., TV mounting, ceiling fan replacement, and outdoor motion sensor lighting). He called us in advance to talk through each of the jobs and compiled a list of materials that would be required. He was up front about the cost of materials and the labor charges, which seemed very reasonable for an electrician of his caliber. He successfully completed our projects and did a beautiful job. We are very happy with the mounting, outdoor light and ceiling fan / light. We plan to use Glenn for all of our future electrical work!"

"Kevin from Legend Electric of Chalfont, PA traveled all the way down to Sussex, and did a fantastic job with the installation of 3 ceiling fans and some other odds and ends that needed to be done electrically speaking. He was incredible and fairly priced."

"Michael was prompt, honest and professional. I would highly tecommend him for all your electrical needs. He took his time making sure that all fixtures are working properly, and when one old wiring didn’t, he went to Home Depot just to find something to make it work. He’s not like other contractors who sugarcoat something just coz they think they’re the expert. Michael was very patient in explaining it to me in layman’s terms. He’s very dependable and very knowledgeable in his craft. Hire him in your next project and you’ll find out that everything that I said here is true. I know I will hire him again soon. Thanks Michael as you are a gem. You are a great asset to your field and I wish you the best of luck!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Multiple wire sizes are used for residential electrical purposes. While the most common sizes used in homes are 14 and 12 gauge, some appliances, such as stoves, electric water heaters, central air units, etc., may use larger gauge wire to accommodate their larger amperage. Typically, larger appliances require 10-, 8-, or 6-gauge wires.

In the United States, home outlets support a standard 15 amps, but you can upgrade per outlet if necessary. Most single-family residential homes have a maximum overall amp rating, usually 100 to 200 amps. Very old houses may have less than 100 amps, but that’s rare. Large homes often come with amp services above 200 amps to support modern lifestyles.

No, not all thermostats require a C-wire. Older manual and programmable thermostats typically do not need one. While many smart thermostats do require a C-wire to function correctly, some models can operate without one, often at the expense of certain features. A C-wire provides a constant source of power, which enables the thermostat to stay connected to Wi-Fi and keep its display screen lit on-demand. If you are upgrading from an older thermostat to a smart model that requires a C-wire, you may need to install one first for it to work as intended.

You don’t need to be an electrician to change a light bulb. You also don’t have to be an electrician to replace a light fixture with another compatible one. But, if you are installing a light fixture for the first time, it’s worth hiring a licensed professional for the job.

While a handyperson may charge a bit less, a qualified professional can make sure everything is up to code and working exactly as it should be. This is especially true for more complicated lighting projects.

Systems should be checked every 2-3 years or whenever signs of age appear, maintaining network integrity and safety at all times.
