"I called Mr. Register on a Friday and he scheduled our job for Monday.  Billy and Josh (both former military) were the electricians who were on our job and we cannot praise them enough.  The job was completed with the utmost care and respect for our property.  Billy and Josh worked hard and it was a very neat installation.  They are very informative and helpful.  I have already referred them to our neighbor and HIGHLY recommend Cowtown Wire Nuts Electric Company to anyone looking for A+ electricians.

"Outstanding service. We had a breaker box replaced, including all the rewiring associated and a new ground. Also had electrical fixed that goes to the dryer. They made an appointment for the next working day, were on time, and did an excellent job. Everything was carefully explained to us. Nice people and very professional. We would hire again."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

By nature, two-prong outlets aren't grounded—but the box they run to might be, which makes them safer. The safest way to test if an outlet is grounded is to purchase a circuit tester, which cost about $20 at home improvement stores. 

If you discover your outlet (or outlets) aren't grounded, know that this greatly increases your risk of personal injury and electrical fires. You may want to consider installing new three-prong ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlets. On average, the cost to install GFCI outlets is about $210 per outlet.

Incorrectly wiring a single-pole switch results in the connected light or device not turning on or tripping the circuit breaker. Although it doesn't matter which terminal the hot wire and the load wire connect to, mixing up a circuit wire with a ground or having loose connections can prevent the switch from working. 

Old electrical systems may have more problems than newer ones. In some cases, like if your home has aluminum wiring, it may be necessary to update your electrical system. You should also update your home’s wiring if it still has knob and tube wiring, which is considered dangerous by modern building standards. If that applies to you, get in touch with an electrical professional near you to obtain a quote.

You will need a permit for any electrical work that involves installing or replacing wiring, moving or installing new fixtures, switches, or outlets, hardwiring appliances or HVAC equipment, installing subpanels, and upgrading electrical service. You typically don’t need a permit to have an electrician replace an existing light fixture or electrical box. You can always call your local building department to see if your project needs a permit, but a professional electrician will be able to tell you. In most cases, your professional will pull the permits for you.

It prevents electrical surges, protects your home from things like electrical fires, and prevents you from getting shocked if an errant surge runs through your power line. Without grounded wires, your appliances could also get damaged during lightning storms.
