"Ahmed did an excellent job installing electricity to my Pergola in my backyard & also did it in a timely manner. He is very meticulous on how he does his work. Also he was very reasonable with the price that he quoted & did not leave until the work that he did was to both his & my satisfaction. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing electrical work."

"I called Lee Electric on a Saturday, not expecting a response til Monday.  Ada called back an hour or so later and set a time to come by to check out my outlet.  She was punctual, pleasant and professional when she arrived.  She worked quickly and cleanly.  A few hours after she left I noticed that I did not have power in my kitchen anymore.  I called her back and left a short message explaining the problem and asking for possibly solutions.  She came back within 2 hours and explained the problem.  I have an ancient fuse box and she replaced some of the fuses and then left me with several extras at no charge.  She was a delight.

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, electric fences need power to operate. They are powered by either a battery or an electrical outlet. In heavy snow or extreme rain, or if the power goes out, your electric fence might stop working. Knowing how to test an electric fence is important for figuring out if the fence is still functioning properly.

The number of outlets and lights you can safely run on a single circuit depends on the circuit's amperage and local electrical codes. A general rule is to allow one outlet or light fixture per 1.5 amps, keeping the total load under 80% of the circuit breaker's capacity. For example, a 15-amp circuit can typically support up to eight outlets or lights, while a 20-amp circuit can accommodate up to ten. Always consider the combined power usage of all connected devices and fixtures to prevent overloading. For specific guidelines and to ensure safety, it is best to consult local electrical codes or a licensed electrician.

A GFCI outlet can be 15A or 20A. The average American home power outlet is 15A.

If a 240V appliance is connected to a 120V outlet, the lower voltage will cause that appliance to receive insufficient power. This may result in reduced performance, malfunctions, or even damage to the appliance's components. Depending on the size of your electrical circuit, you’ll likely need to reset a tripped circuit breaker at the very least.

For more complex electrical projects, it’s often most efficient and cost-effective to hire an electrician rather than trying to figure it out yourself (and risking electrical problems). Electricians know exactly what a project requires, and can often find supplies or parts for cheaper than the average homeowner. That can save money compared to going it alone.
