"Anthony was phenomenal.. VERY knowledgeable on ALL the different types of fixtures I asked about. Was able to give me the pros and cons of each one, which made my decision SOOOO much easier ..Anthony is a REAL asset to this company.. Joe in the office, who took my initial call and request for service, was a VERY professional, customer service oriented employee..Very CUSTOMER SERVICE oriented!! I felt the charges for what I had done were VERY reasonable. This organization will definitely be my 'go to' for any electrical work in the future. My wife is already getting her 'things to do' list together for some other future 'updates' of fixtures and outlets.. Anthony will be my 'top of the list' employee to do my work."

"W3 Electric is truly the GREATEST in the game! Not only was Bill Witty respectful and helpful but also worked so hard to accomplish everything I wanted by adding switches and light fixtures in my new home. So thankful that W3 provided quality work in my home. Use them for all your electrical needs! You won’t be disappointed!!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If you’re interested in exploring other avenues to completely upgrade your electrical panel, it’s also possible to add a sub-panel, which is a smaller panel that connects to what you currently have in place. This way, you can add additional circuits without having to swap out your main panel.

You can make a pigtail with either thermoplastic high-heat-resistant nylon-coated (THHN) wire or non-metallic (NM) cable, often referred to as “Romex.” Each pigtail requires a neutral wire, a ground wire, and a live wire. The gauge of your pigtail wires must match the gauge of those on the device. 

Different types of light switches include single-pole switches (the standard switch in your home), double-pole switches, toggle switches, three-way switches, four-way switches, dimmer switches, and more. 

A single-pole light switch controls the power to a single device, whereas two-way, three-way, and four-way light switches control lights from different locations, increasing the number of connections in the home.

According to the National Electrical Code (NEC), GFCI outlets should be installed in wet or damp locations where they might be splashed with water or other liquids. This is to protect against ground faults, which are more common around water. Specific areas that require GFCI outlets include kitchens (especially near counters), bathrooms, laundry rooms, basements, garages, and all outdoor receptacles. Depending on local electrical codes, you may need at least one GFCI outlet in these rooms, or every outlet in the area may need to be GFCI protected.

Technically, an outdoor outlet can be on the same circuit as an indoor outlet, but it's generally not recommended. Outdoor outlets should ideally be on a dedicated circuit that doesn't share power with other indoor or outdoor outlets. This helps ensure that the outdoor outlets are able to handle the additional electrical load without overloading the circuit. Additionally, outdoor outlets are often exposed to the elements, which can increase the risk of electrical shock and other hazards. If you must have an outdoor outlet on the same circuit as an indoor outlet, be sure that the circuit has the capacity to handle the additional load.
