"I thought that Greens electrical did an excellent job! I called and asked them to come out and they immediately came out. I told them what was wrong and they went above and beyond to help me. I definitely will be using them again. I highly recommend anyone who needs work done to give them a call."

"The electrical was torn from my house during Helene almost a year ago. Anyone remember what a hassle it was to get anything done around that time? I was amazed that David DUNN came out within a day and repaired my electric electrical to my house better than it was before. I highly recommend him and his services. He was professional, courteous, and thorough. You can't go wrong hiring David DUNN."

"The rep suggested several improvements including upgrading to a solar heating system. We are now in the process of installing a solar heating system. With government tax incentives over the next 2 years we will finance $15K. If I just keep paying what I was paying for my monthly power bill towards the solar panels and upgrades the payback is less that 7 years. After which, my electricity is free. System has a 30 year warranty. Looking forward to the installation and will provide feedback once it is installed and in operation."

"There are no words! These guys are top notch humans. We needed a whole new service installed after Helene, there were here first thing Tuesday, and went far above their job. I went to work but my daughter and newborn grandson were here. These guys brought her lunch and ran an extension cord and brought in a commercial fan. They didn't stop there, them and my landlord fixed our generator, we couldn't get it going, left the fan for us to use, filled the gas in the generator. I hope they know just how much we appreciate all their kindness. The city came right out an approved their work, we are all set for when Duke shows up."

"FAST AND EFFICIENT, BUT DID HAVE TO COME BACK WITH THE REPLACEMENT PART TWO DAYS LATER. I WAS PLEASED WITH THE PROFESSIONALISM AND RESPECT FOR ME AND MY HOME WHILE THE SENIOR TECH WAS WORKING AND ALSO TEACHING A TRAINEE. FLAT RATE WAS CHARGED FOR THE ENTIRE JOB EVEN THOUGH HAD TO COME BACK AND INSTALL THE REPLACEMENT PART WHICH MEANT ANOTHER INTERIOR DISASSEMBLY TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE INTERIOR PANEL TO REPLACE THE PART, AS WELL AS MORE DEFROSTING WAS REQUIRED AGAIN TO REMOVE THE INTERIOR PANEL THAT WAS FILLING UP WITH FROST AND ICE AGAIN."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, a water leak poses a major fire risk at your home because water is a conductor of electricity. Water that comes into contact with sparks or electrical wires can instantly ignite flammable materials. Additionally, any type of exposure to water can cause wires and other electrical components within your home to corrode. When assessing categories of water damage, it's important to know that even a small amount of moisture near wiring could cause sparks that lead to a fire.

It might seem tempting to use 14-gauge wires for your outlets, as they can run a little cheaper. But, when it comes to electrical work, it’s best not to cut costs less you overload your circuit. A 12-gauge wire will ensure that you’re protecting the outlet (and your circuit breaker) from any potential overloads that might incur, as it can handle a little more amplitude than a 14-gauge wire.

You can use a double-pole switch for a regular light fixture, but it's unnecessary and won’t be the most efficient choice. A single-pole switch works perfectly for standard lights. Double-pole handle high-power appliances that require both hot wires to be disconnected. Using a single-pole switch for regular lights is more cost-effective, simpler, and more common in residential settings.

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.

It’s possible to distinguish a positive black wire from a negative black wire if you know what type of circuit the wires are in. If it’s an alternating current (AC), then black wires are positive. If it’s a direct current (DC), then black wires are negative. 

Sometimes, a circuit has two black wires. In that case, the positive black wire will be solid black while the negative black wire will have a white stripe on it. If you’re still unsure, you can use a multimeter to check.
