"The LCF Electrical team were pure excellence every way you look at it! Prompt, professional, friendly, clear communication from the point of initial contact through to the completion of the project. They knew exactly what we needed, nothing more nothing less, but offered great suggestions and options where needed. They maintained a tidy workspace and their completed work is immaculate. The project was done on the timeline laid out at the beginning and there were no surprises. They were a pleasure to deal with and we couldn't be happier with our experience. Having worked with many local electrical companies both personal and related to our business, in the past, it was refreshing to qork with LCF and they will be our "go to" from now on!"

"Javier was absolutely wonderful! When he came for the quote he pointed out other problems he saw around so I could get the proper technicians to come fix it under warranty. He also installed a new RV outlet in my yard and educated me and my husband about other electrical things around our new house that we did not understand. He was very quick, informative, and just generally a nice human being. I’m pretty sure he smiled the whole entire time even while I bombarded him with questions and problems. I got a quote from many electricians for this job and I actually paid $400 more for this company to come out because of how great the service was and how educational they made the experience"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

GFCI stands for ground fault circuit interrupter, which means it has the ability to detect a ground fault and shut the circuit down before it creates hazards. General breakers may also do that because ground faults can cause overloads, but they’re more focused on amp overloads from any cause. GFCIs are often installed in specific outlets, but breakers can come with GFCI capabilities built in for broader ground fault protection.

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.

Yes, it’s safe to strip a wire if you follow the proper safety precautions. First and foremost, you must always disconnect the power and never try stripping a live wire. Using wire strippers is another safety precaution, but don’t forget to keep your fingers away from the blade. It’s also critical you only remove the insulation and not accidentally cut into the conductor, which is unlikely as long as you’re using the right-sized wire stripper.

Smart glass doesn’t use a lot of electricity, and you can expect a standard window to add between $1 and $2 per year to your electric bills. Smart glass is proof that energy-efficient windows work. Although your smart windows may consume a little energy to operate, they can save enough energy to offset the costs. If you’re concerned about the minimal bump to your electricity consumption, you can opt for smart tint, which doesn’t require electricity to work.

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.
