"Jim for Donhohues Lightning Rods installed the lightning rod system in my home. When the work was done I was very happy as their installer came as per promised time, and perform the work. Before giving them the work Jim completely sold me their work ethics, quality, and service. There was a minor issue and his team took complete ownership of this issue and talked to me in detail. They provide a very good explanation to satisfy me. I am a happy customer."

"Texas Green Energy did a great job installing a NEMA 14-50 outlet in my garage for an EV Charging Station. After receiving several quotes from local companies I decided on Texas Green Energy and I’m so glad I did. Tommy and his crew came out quickly to give me an initial quote. Along with the quote he did a great job explaining the different options and walking me through exactly what the work would entail. After reviewing all the quotes I received, I decided to go with Texas Green Energy for several reasons. First, they have some really good reviews online and a friend of mine used them, to instal solar panels on his house, and highly recommended them. Second, they were very professional and did a great job communicating with me from the initial request for a quote all the way through the projects completion. Lastly, I felt very comfortable trusting that they would do things the right way. One example of that was on the day of the install Tommy, the project manager, told me he had forgot to include something in the original quote. I thought to myself, “oh boy he’s going to jack up the price on me.” To my surprise he told me that the price he quoted would be the price I would pay. I really appreciated that a handshake and a man’s word was something he really took to heart. On the day of the actual installation they showed up on time and everything went smoothly. The outlet works and looks great and if you didn’t know any better you’d think it had always been there. Before leaving they cleaned up, showed me which breaker in my electrical panel controlled it, and made sure I didn’t have any questions before they left. If you have an EV and want a level 2 charger installed, either hardwired or plug-in, then this is company to call."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Wire color codes vary depending on the region. For instance, the United Kingdom has updated its wiring codes to match Europe's color system. The United States wiring color code is different, as is Australia's. Because the color code system isn’t universal, it’s essential to hire an experienced electrician to perform any electrical work to ensure it is done correctly.

No. Blue wires and black wires are different. Even though both are used as hot wires, they serve different functions. Black wires are far more common in residential properties. They are always hot, can be positive or negative, and usually carry electricity from a power source to an outlet. Blue wires have a specialized usage in residential properties, generally as traveler wires, and are more common in commercial properties.

The National Fire Protection Association reports that almost half of reported electrical fires are caused by electrical distribution and lighting equipment. The main culprit behind these fires is often frayed, worn, or faulty wiring, particularly in closed-off and concealed areas like attics, where fires can start and burn undetected for long periods.

It can be safe to buy or live in a house with knob and tube (K&T) wiring, but only if the system is in good condition, functional, and has been thoroughly inspected and approved by a licensed electrician. Never purchase a home with K&T wiring without getting a professional electrical inspection first.

Key considerations include:

  • Safety and Condition: An inspector will verify that the wiring is safe and has not deteriorated. Over time, the insulation can wear away, leaving exposed wires that pose a significant fire or shock hazard.

  • System Capacity: The electrical service should be at least 60 amps. However, even at this capacity, K&T systems often struggle to handle the demands of modern appliances and electronics.

  • Lack of Grounding: Knob and tube wiring is an ungrounded system, which is a safety concern for many modern devices.

  • Ongoing Maintenance: If you live in a home with K&T wiring, it's recommended to have it inspected by an electrician every one to two years to ensure it remains in safe working order.

Ultimately, any inspection or modification of a knob and tube system should always be performed by a certified professional.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.
