"Citywide Electric came to our home and repaired our circuit breaker that needed repair. We could not get our dryer plug to work, and they fixed out outlet quickly. Even went to a very famous home appliance get the part they needed. Lowered the cost of the repair for us also. Citywide electric are trustworthy, quick with repairs and we will definitely use them again, should the need arise."

"I highly recommend Thundercolt Electric. Gerardo came out, provided a bid and when I advised I was ready to get started they quickly got started on the project which included recessed lighting, new electrical outlets and switches, changing out electrical outlets and light switches, installing a surge protector for the home, installation of ceiling fans and a ring doorbell. Thunderbolt did an excellent job and I would hire them again for any work I may have and Iâ d recommend them to family and friends."

"I found Allgood Electric through the Internet and found a lot of good remarks. They were prompt. The electrician called when he was on his way. He went right to work, diagnosed the issue (a faulty breaker) began repairs. The charge was fair especially since they came right away. They are courtesous from the first call to finishing the work. I haighly recommend Allgood Electric. When I need an elecrician the are now the first onmy list."

"Outstanding communication and very professional service. I would highly recommend Mr. Electric. Received both e-mails and texts on appointment to include a photo and short bio of the actual electrician (Brad Mason) who would be doing the work. Wish all home service providers did the same. Brad was on time (actually a few minutes early). He installed 30AMP breaker and associated RV plug in our garage. To avoid any sheetrock repairs it was necessary for him to drop the line to the house electric panel through a wall with foam insulation, with very limited head/body clearance for him to work. No mess left behind from the actual plug installation on another wall."

"Allgood was professional and easy to work with. They removed an old, hot electric outlet that was a hazard in our backyard for a reasonable $89. I would recommend allgood and will be using them on future projects."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

No. Do not use a 14-gauge wire on a 20-amp outlet. A certified licensed electrician would know that the National Electrical Code (as per Section 240.4(D) subsection 3) requires 14-gauge wires to be used with a maximum amplitude of 15. Therefore, you should only use 12-gauge wires on 20-amp outlets.

Soldering is a reliable and durable way to connect wires, but it isn't the only method. Nowadays, professionals often crimp the connection instead—although this requires a higher degree of skill than soldering.

240V is the standard for more demanding appliances in the United States, whereas 220V is more common elsewhere. The voltage isn’t very different in any practical sense. The United States is a newer country compared to many other regions in the world with a faster adoption of new electrical needs. Appliances in the United States are often bigger than other parts of the world.

You can move an electric meter outside if you currently have one inside your home. This is considered a larger move, so be prepared to pay on the upper end of $600 to $1,200. When hiring a professional electrician to move your electric meter, be sure to specify its current location and desired location, including pictures if possible.

If your outlet is testing fine but keeps tripping, that’s a sign your GFCI outlet is working, but there’s a problem somewhere else. Try plugging in different devices and see if the outlet keeps tripping. If it’s not the appliance that’s causing the issue, it could be a problem in your wiring. Faulty wiring can be a source of electrical fires and other serious problems. We recommend arranging an inspection by an electrician if an outlet appears to be working but keeps tripping.
