"It was done by Mike Stapleford in the time and manner of a professional electrician with 30 years experience. He cleaned up after himself and was very pleasant. His charge was too low, and I increased the payment to amore reasonable amount. The following day, I gave his name and phone number at my company for use for future work there. I highly recommend Stapleford Electric."

"Pete came out and we discussed my desire to upgrade my panel. He was very professional and explained his recommendations in wording that even I could understand. During the upgarde he answered any of my questions. When Pete had finished with the upgrade it looked like a work of art. He cleaned up everything. Skill counts and Gulotta has plenty. I highly recommend Gulotta Electric for all your electrical needs."

"JC Electric did a fantastic job installing a ceiling fan and entryway light fixture in my home. The high ceilings made the job a bit challenging, but Joe was thorough, professional, and completed everything very quickly. He was responsive from my initial inquiry, was able to schedule the work promptly, and worked with us to stay within our budget. I was very pleased with the quality of the work and the overall experience. I would absolutely recommend JC Electric to anyone looking for reliable, professional electrical work!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

You should never use a plug with burn marks because it can cause a fire or even an electrical shock. The burn marks could be caused by a dangerous underlying electrical problem, so it’s important to call a qualified electrician right away. 

Replacing the panel itself takes four to eight hours of work by a professional. However, if associated wiring and related components also require replacement, the labor time increases to 20 to 30 hours. Your electrician can speed up the process by bringing in a team of pros to handle ancillary tasks.

A 60W LED bulb is likely labeled as “60W replacement” on the package—that’s because it provides about the same light output as a 60W incandescent bulb. In reality, it likely uses less energy—usually 15 watts or less. If that’s the case, then it’s perfectly fine to put a 60W LED bulb in a 40W socket. Your best bet is to read the package carefully. It will tell you the LED bulb’s actual wattage, and as long as it’s lower than the fixture, the bulb will be safe to use.

GFCI outlets should be clearly labeled with LINE and LOAD labels, with arrows leading to the proper terminals. The line terminals are typically at the top, and the load terminals are typically at the bottom.

Yes, splicing wires can cause a fire if the splicing is done incorrectly. This is why splicing wires is a task best handled by electricians. One of the most common mistakes made when splicing wires is not using a wire connector. Without a wire connector, electricity flows unsheathed and can result in a home electrical fire.
