"Due to our house construction, it was difficult to install the fans where we wanted them, but Mark did it. He was honest about where the fans could and could not be placed, and gave us options. He was professional, prompt, tidy, and courteous.
We highly recommend Harda Electric! Thanks, Mark "
"I had a quote from a highly recommended company when I decided to contact DS Burkholder. Lester got back to me 3 times faster than the first company & quoted me a price that was hundreds of dollars less than the other company. He spent over 30 minutes with me discussing my needs and ideas of what electrical changes needed to be addressed. He was always quickly responsive, thorough, and a clear and effective communicator. I emailed him two additional items before our appointment and he gave me concrete prices and just added them to the estimate. He sent a team of hard workers who clearly have pride in doing a great job. This job was such a bright spot that it helped offset a very bad experience with another contractor. Very, very pleased with everything!"

A blinking, or twinkle, bulb makes Christmas lights blink. Usually, this type of bulb has a silver or red tip, making it easily distinguishable from other non-blinking bulbs. Most packages of Christmas lights come with additional blinking and non-blinking bulbs. Additional bulbs can be purchased at a hardware store or online retailer.
You should never wire neutral and ground wires together at a light switch. Not only is it unsafe, but it’s also incorrect. The neutral and ground wires perform separate functions in an electrical circuit and should never be swapped or wired together at a light switch, light, or outlet.
In general, 200 amps is enough for a house with a square footage of up to 1,800, or the average three-bedroom home. A 200-amp service allows your home to warm and cool itself while running multiple appliances at once. It's a good option for homes that have been extended, or after adding new appliances. 200-amp service is the current standard for homes, so in most cases, it will work for you.
You can add an electrical outlet outside by sending a wire through the wall from an existing interior outlet. Without having to open up walls, you can thread a new electrical cable from the existing outlet through the wall and to the exterior. You’ll need to cut a hole in the siding to place your new outlet. Ensure that your outdoor outlet is a GFCI outlet (ground fault circuit interrupter outlet) per the National Electrical Code. It’s best to hire an electrician to add an outdoor outlet unless you have previous electrical experience.
The easiest and best way to power your outdoor lights is with the use of outdoor outlets. Most building codes now require exterior outlets in homes, so you likely already have outdoor outlets available to plug into. However, you can have these outlets installed if your space doesn’t currently include them.
