"My experience with Hughes Electrical was fantastic and I absolutely recommend them to everyone! I was using the vacuum and noticed sparks coming out of my outlet in the living room and then the outlets lost power. I called Hughes Electrical and they were out there by lunchtime. William was very knowledgeable, finding and fixing the problem fast. He also gave me a free inspection of the electric system and fixed an issue he found. I am extremely pleased with everything. This is the best electrical company around!"

"Great; two servicemen arrived within a 1 hour window set the day before. They also called when they were on the way. The work was done quickly and will call them again for any other future electrical issues."

"I wholeheartedly recommend Celano Electric for their exceptional electrical services. Our experience began with a complete house rewiring, a project they executed with utmost professionalism and expertise. Their dedication extended to replacing outlets and ceiling fans, treating each task with equal precision and attention to detail. What sets Celano Electric apart is their unique commitment to transparency. They were the only electricians who provided an itemized list for the extensive rewiring project, ensuring we understood every step of the process. This level of communication instilled a great deal of trust, and it's one of the many reasons we continue to choose them for our electrical needs. Their guys even went so far as to mistakes made by other contractors working on the house (such as replacing wires that had been nailed through or incorrectly located openings from the drywall contractor). They were not the cheapest option, but Celano Electric is the only contractor with whom we have not had issues. Their services save us from the worry of repeated fixes or poor-quality work, making every penny spent absolutely worth it. Beyond their excellent workmanship, the team at Celano Electric is always ready to go the extra mile. Their customer service, punctuality, and professionalism have made them our all-time favorite contractors. In summary, if you're seeking top-quality, reliable, and honest electrical services, look no further than Celano Electric. We couldn't be more grateful."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

A 3-prong, 15-amp, 120-volt outlet is standard in the U.S. These have two vertical slots and a U-shaped grounding hole, which suits most home electronics, from televisions to microwaves. Three-pronged outlets are safer than 2-pronged ones, as the third wire, known as the grounding wire, helps prevent shocks and electrical fires.

Using a wire stripper/cutter, strip about 1/2 inch to 1 inch of sheathing from electric wires, depending on the application. A self-adjusting wire stripper/cutter works best, but a standard wire stripper/cutter with holes for different gauges of wire works as well to cut and strip away the sheath without damaging the copper wire inside.

If you’re interested in exploring other avenues to completely upgrade your electrical panel, it’s also possible to add a sub-panel, which is a smaller panel that connects to what you currently have in place. This way, you can add additional circuits without having to swap out your main panel.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

When combined with a substantial solar system, if you have enough Powerwalls, you could go off-grid and be energy independent. But remember, you'd need enough Powerwalls to power your whole home continuously because a single Powerwall can’t power large appliances for extended periods. One Powerwall is able to power an average-sized home's emergency circuits, lights, and outlets. To power large appliances, you likely need two or three Powerwalls.
