"Glenn goes above and beyond for his customers. We hired Glenn for a number of different activities including hanging 75” TV over the mantle, installing recessed lighting and fixing the electrical panel. Glenn is knowledgeable, hardworking and always wants his customers to be happy with the end product. This combination of attributes makes for one top-notch electrician! Highly recommended"

"Celano Electric did a number of electrical jobs that included upgrading electrical outlets, repairing a light fixture, installing a light switch, adding an outlet to my electrical panel, and adding a junction box to my kitchen appliance source. All this was done within one day by an efficient crew who left the place quite clean. I would heartily recommend this crew for any electrical work around the house."

"Yes They were wonderful. John and his Company are simply wonderful. They put a new electrical outlet in for me so that I could keep one of my old appliances. The two electricians were professional, well knowledgeable and caring. I felt as though I was dealing with family who knew a lot about electrical matters. I highly recommend this company."

"Highly recommend Phil’s Electric. Phil was prompt, knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. He replaced a main panel, installed a ground rod, and replaced under counter lighting. Finding a professional you can trust is hard, but I found it in Phil’s Electric. Call Phil’s Electric - you will be glad you did!"

"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

No. Blue wires and black wires are different. Even though both are used as hot wires, they serve different functions. Black wires are far more common in residential properties. They are always hot, can be positive or negative, and usually carry electricity from a power source to an outlet. Blue wires have a specialized usage in residential properties, generally as traveler wires, and are more common in commercial properties.

The color of your cable will help you to identify its function. In the U.S., the National Electrical Code (NEC) designates the color code for electrical cables. “Hot” cables are black, red, and blue. In cases of higher voltage lines, orange might also be used to indicate a hot cable. White or gray indicates a neutral, and green or green with a yellow stripe indicates a ground.

Yes, California law requires that electricians be licensed by the state in order to do electrical work. However, there is an exception for small jobs valued at $500 or less. In these cases, an unlicensed handyperson is legally allowed to do the work. Limit hiring unlicensed contractors to minor tasks and fixes around your home.

Short circuits can cause significant damage to electrical appliances, bodily harm, and potentially death to humans. For this reason, they are a serious occurrence. If you’re unable to find and fix a short circuit on your own, you must reach out to a licensed electrician for help.

Moving an electrical outlet typically costs between $25 and $300. The final price depends on several factors, including the type of outlet, the condition of your existing wiring, and the state of your walls. For example, working on exposed walls without drywall is easier and less expensive for an electrician. However, if the walls are finished, the cost may increase to account for necessary repairs afterward. It's recommended to consult a professional for a precise quote based on your specific situation.
