"This was a residential job (updating most of the electrical wiring). Eduardo did a wonderful job adding in extra lights and updating fixtures. The quality of his work is excellent! I would recommend this company to anyone who needs any electrical work to be done."
"Excellent company to do business with. Ed is awesome. Explains job and how everything works. And the work is done quickly professionally & with care for my property. Would hire again -- and will be!!"
"Mr. Donohue is very knowledgeable and has excellent experience in the lightning protection area. He responds quickly and has a very professional team of workers. He quoted the job using google earth information. When he visited the site he reduced his price by over 50%. I highly recommend him and I will use his company again."
"I reached out to 4B Electric in Poolville, TX for a quote to install a whole house Generator. I was immediately contacted and Josh came right over to review the installation. He gave me a very fair quote via email that same day. I also reached out to several other Electrical contractors for competitive quotes. I waited several day RTS for those firms to call me and only one other firm came out. Who did submit a quote that was quite a bit higher. The other 2 contractors only gave me verbal estimates. All told none were as professional as Josh with 4B Electric and we thousands more in costs. Once I had the generator in hand Josh was out within the week to install it. He even brought his tractor along so as to properly iift and set it where I wanted. Josh completed the bulk of the work in one day, including the automatic transfer switch, conduit and wiring! He even scheduled the power shutdown with the Utility company! All work as completed the day of the shutdown, including all of the programming and startup of the generator. I was was most impressed with Joshâ s work ethic, quality of work and customer service. I highly recommend 4B Electric for any electric work that you may need. I have already had Josh back out to our house to fix several other issues with switches and outlets. 4B is in my mind is the best! Thank you Josh."
"Was very knowledgeable about all the current code requirements and necessary equipment needed to install and even walked me through the start up procedure after the install was complete. Will definitely call him back for future work"

The easiest way to determine the amperage of your electrical outlets is to check the corresponding breaker in your home’s breaker panel. The number is likely noted on the circuit breaker. If that fails, it’s possible to tell 15-amp and 20-amp outlets apart by looking at them. Fifteen-amp outlets have two vertical holes, while 20-amp outlets have one vertical hole and one T-shaped hole.
The life expectancy of a circuit breaker is 30 to 40 years. However, how long your circuit breaker lasts depends on the condition of your electrical equipment, the amperage, your electrical consumption, and more. A breaker box that frequently trips from overload will last much shorter than a breaker box with the proper amperage for the number of devices and appliances in use. If your circuit breaker trips frequently, and you have also increased your electrical consumption, it may be worth upgrading your electrical panel to extend your electrical system’s lifespan—and save you the hassle of frequent power trips.
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.
Daisy-chaining refers to placing multiple GFCI outlets in a row along the same circuit. This won’t do any harm, but it’s of limited usefulness because a properly-placed GFCI can monitor all downstream outlets on its own. Multiple GFCI installations won’t usually increase safety except in special cases.
You’ll need to locate and hire an electrician near you if there’s an electrical project you don’t feel comfortable tackling yourself. Generally, look for a contractor that specializes in the type of appliance or component that you need help with. For wiring, outlets and similar projects, a general electrician is your best bet. For larger remodels, a general contractor will often take care of electrical projects via subcontractors.
