"Promptness, integrity, professionalism, value are all words that I would use to describe Mill Stream Electric and it's owner, Alex. They absolutely saved us from a terrible situation where we had an electrical short in the outside panel that caused serious damage. We were out of power in the middle of August. They showed up THE DAY I CALLED THEM! And had the service compeletly rebuilt (necessary given the damage) in TWO DAYS! It's not the first time we've used these superheros and it definitely won't be the last. Highest recommendation!"

"Anthony does really great work. He made some suggestions that really worked well for us. He showed up when he said he would. Did all the work he was contracted for and treated my home with care and respect. We made the right choice to hire his business for our electrical needs for our remodel."

"Shawn Powell scheduled an installation and overview of my security system for 5/14/2021 and he was here promptly on that day. He had to detour on his way to my house but he texted me to let me know he was delayed. Shawnâ s customer service is impeccable. When he got to my house I had on my mask, he respected my home and put his on. When he had everything installed he gave me all the instructions I needed to use my system. If you want great customer service, a professional installer and top of the line security system for an affordable cost, Shawn is your man. I highly recommend him."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

In many cases, you can sell your house if it has aluminum wiring, but you are likely required to disclose that fact during the sale. In some cases, your city or area may have banned the sale of homes with aluminum wiring, so you’ll need to update the wiring or arrange for its replacement as part of the sale. In some cases, it will benefit your home sale to replace the wiring system before putting it on the market.

A ground wire is not required for GFCI to work. A ground is a third wire in an outlet in addition to the live and neutral wires. It serves as an escape conduit for electricity in case of a short circuit. If a ground wire is present, installers should connect it to the appropriate terminal. Otherwise, a GFCI will work fine without it.

While circuit breakers are designed to be reset after tripping, there isn't a strict countdown to when they will fail. The primary danger lies in a breaker tripping multiple times in a short period without allowing the components to cool down. Theoretically, a standard breaker might handle around 50 trips caused by simple overloading. However, this number can be much lower in practice. For instance, a high-current fault could damage a breaker to the point that it needs replacement after only two resets. Repeatedly resetting a breaker that trips frequently exacerbates the underlying problem by causing the electrical components, wires, and the breaker itself to overheat. This can lead to permanent damage, cause the breaker to trip unnecessarily in the future, and increase the risk of an electrical fire. If a breaker trips every few minutes, you should leave it in the 'off' position and call a qualified electrician for an inspection.

Yes, you can get shocked while using a multimeter if:

  • You touch the metal tip while testing a live current.

  • The meter isn’t properly rated for the voltage.

  • The meter picks up on transient voltage that’s above the range you’ve set.

  • The meter has defective parts.

You can prevent shock and personal injury by using a multimeter properly and maintaining your device. 

If you’re unsure how to use a multimeter or want help with your project, contact a local electrician to get the job done.

An outlet can trip because the circuit it’s on is overloaded, meaning the devices plugged into it are drawing more power than the circuit can safely carry. Another culprit could be because a power surge from a storm or accident caused a problem with your local electrical grid or there’s a short or a fault causing power to run through the circuit in a dangerous or unplanned way.
