"A little pricey, but when you're trying to get something fixed outside of major cities in the SE AL area, Mr. Electric is about the only pro who would even return my calls! Not to mention, when they said they'd be at a certain spot at a certain time, they were there! Literally not a single other "professional" in the area that I've worked with has been able to match that service. Sometimes you really *do* get what you pay for."

"We hired Parker to add more lights in several rooms of our house. They did an excellent job and were very reasonably priced. About 6 months after the job was done, we had an issue with one of the new switches. Mike came out and problem solved the issue and took care of it. He was thorough and gracious throughout the job. We definitely recommend them for any electrical work."

"This is definitely the guy to hire if you need any electrical work done! He was kind and exceptionally professional. It was supposed to be a simple ceiling fan replacement. However, Larry found a serious problem with my wiring that I'm blessed didn't actually cause a fire in my home. He showed me the problem and fixed it even though that really should have been a separate call. I am over the top pleased with the service and work performance. I HIGHLY recommend Top Notch Electrical and Larry!!! 5 STARS!!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If you are having trouble determining the right breaker size for your water heater, it is a great idea to contact an electrician near you to help. They can help you determine the best option for your home and install the circuit breaker for you, ensuring that you have all the proper permits and that your circuit breaker won’t overload, which could lead to fire and other damage.

Doorbell wires typically won't spark because they carry low voltage. However, if there's a short circuit or damaged wiring, sparking could occur. Always turn off the power at the breaker box before working with doorbell wires to prevent any risk. If you notice any sparking, it's a sign of a problem that a professional electrician should address.

You should always turn off a breaker whenever electrical work is being done. This step can prevent electrical shock and injury. Also, if a breaker is repeatedly tripping, it can mean there is an electrical overload, and it should be shut off. You should contact an electrician to figure out the cause. Make sure to review how to turn off your circuit breaker safely if you do it yourself, and follow safety precautions to avoid severe injuries.

How far you can run underground electric depends on the wire gauge (generally AWG) and the circuit voltage. Too much voltage drop in an electrical circuit can negatively affect performance, so the smaller the voltage drop, the better. Ideally, it shouldn't exceed 3%. The smaller the wire and the longer the run, the more significant the voltage drop. 

For example, with a 120-volt circuit, you can run 60 feet of 12 AWG cable without losing more than 3% voltage. With a 240-volt circuit, you can run 120 feet of 12 AWG wire while maintaining a voltage drop of 3% or less.

Yes—if a breaker is old or damaged, it might not be able to detect power surges or electrical overload. If that happens, the breaker won’t trip. Instead, it will begin to overheat, putting your electrical system at risk of fire or total electrical failure. Circuit breakers don’t last forever, so you can proactively replace old or damaged breakers before they stop working.
