Jimmy showed up right on time at 8:30 in the morning and set to work.   He worked with good humor even as the job turned out to be bigger than expected since some of the connecting metal conduits could not be replaced without first removing the meter box and two cutoff switch-boxes.  We originally thought that we could salvage the original pole that had been pulled down and ripped off the top of the meter box, but it turned out to be bent, so Jimmy called for a replacement and had it and other necessary parts delivered while he worked.  He struck a good balance between replacing parts that needed to be replaced while preserving original parts where possible to keep the cost down.

B&H Electric provided an excellent quote for the work that came in significantly lower than the competition and provided wonderful service.  He went above and beyond the call of duty and stayed late to finish the job so that we could get our power back as quickly as possible.  He didn't leave until after 10:15pm, working outside amidst the mosquitos under a work-light until the job was done.  He even sealed the new gutter box with silicone so that perhaps it will last a few more years than the last one did.

I'd use B&H again in a heartbeat for any electrical job we have.

"We used Angi.com to find an electrician to install an EV charger we bought for our new EV. Sear Electric responded quickly, came out to complete a visual review of what was needed and they produced a very reasonable quote for the installation of the charger in our garage. The employees were very communicative, friendly and professional, and the overall quality of work was excellent. The guys who did the installation were also very patient as I made sure I got the app connected and verified the charger would indeed charge the car. We are pleased with the work Sear Electric did and would hire them again if we have any other electrical issues or projects."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

It is possible to change a light fixture by only flipping the light switch, but it’s better to be safe than sorry. Exercising extra caution when working with electricity is always important. Take the extra few minutes at your electrical box to cut the power at the circuit breaker. Once you’ve flipped the circuit breaker and the light switch, use a voltage tester to confirm the power has been turned off.

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.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

Window ACs use 500 to 1,400 watts per hour of electricity, while mini-splits use 500 to 700 watts per hour. However, if you need to cool multiple zones in your house, your mini-split can use as much as 2,000 watts per hour. How often you run your system will impact how much electricity you use (and how much you pay per month).

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.
