"The problem turned out to be a burned out small electric door switch. I believe the price was way too expensive for the service performed and the price of the door switch. What more can I say? It got done."

"Kyle, the owner of Canyon Electric, was recommended to us as a trustworthy electrician in the Black Hills area. We had purchased a vacation home in Lead and were having a hot tub and sauna installed. We needed to add 2 240 amp breakers, a new breaker box, and hard wiring both units. We are from across the state and had a deadline for the hot tub installation, which required all wiring done very specifically and in place. Kyle was out at our home wiring and prepping before we even arrived. He was in contact with our hot tub retailer and made sure everything was done perfectly. The wiring on both units was done efficiently. He even did work on one of our bathroom exhaust fans and had it going in quick order. Kyle was a very pleasant person to deal with and we were very impressed with the high standards of his work. We would highly recommend Canyon Electric for any and all of your electrical needs."

"I was only in Spearfish for a short time so Brent worked me in. The team he sent had to work with old wiring to add new plugs and lights. All was done expertly in one cold day outside."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The number of outdoor outlets that can be on one circuit depends on the circuit's capacity and the electrical load of each outlet. Outdoor outlets should ideally be on a dedicated circuit that is not shared with other outlets, and each outlet should be rated for at least 15 amps. A circuit rated for at least 20 amps is recommended. It’s important to use GFCI protection for all outdoor outlets to prevent electrical shocks. Overall, it's crucial to avoid overloading the circuit and take necessary safety precautions.

There are several things to try to repair a broken outlet. Whether it's fixable or not may depend on the problem and the type of outlet itself. Start by testing the circuit with an electrical tester and ensuring the breaker switch to the circuit functions as it should. Loose wires are sometimes the culprit and are repairable by fixing the connections. 

By nature, two-prong outlets aren't grounded—but the box they run to might be, which makes them safer. The safest way to test if an outlet is grounded is to purchase a circuit tester, which cost about $20 at home improvement stores. 

If you discover your outlet (or outlets) aren't grounded, know that this greatly increases your risk of personal injury and electrical fires. You may want to consider installing new three-prong ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets. On average, the cost to install GFCI outlets is about $210 per outlet.

Light switches can last for decades when installed and maintained correctly. Improper wiring, heavy wear and tear, or too much wattage draw can cause light switch failure long before the expected end of a light switch’s life. Light switches that are hot to the touch, making a buzzing noise, or failing to work consistently should be inspected to find and repair the underlying cause.

Appliances in your home that need dedicated circuits include:

  • Refrigerators and chest freezers

  • Electric ranges, microwaves, and toaster ovens

  • Dishwashers and garbage disposals

  • Washers and dryers

  • Heating and air conditioning units

  • Hot tubs, saunas, and water pumps

  • Sump pumps

  • Central vacuums
