Q: How long does it take to move an electric meter?

• <div><p>Simple moves on the same base or within a few feet will not take long, roughly <b>three to four hours</b>. Larger moves onto a new wall or transitioning a box from inside to outside will take <b>8 to 12 hours</b> to complete. Ask your electrician for a time estimate prior to installation.</p></div>

Q: Can you use a dimmer switch with an LED fixture?

• <div><p>Yes, you can use a dimmer switch with an LED fixture, but it must be a dimmer that is compatible with LEDs. Check the manufacturer&rsquo;s information to ensure the dimmer works with LEDs, as not all dimmers are compatible with them. Many smart light switches accept LEDs, but be sure to read the details on the packaging.</p></div>

Q: How long can a whole-house generator run continuously?

• <div><p>Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to wire an outlet myself?

• <div><p>Wiring an outlet can be done safely by someone with the proper knowledge and tools, but it can also be dangerous if not done correctly. If you're not comfortable working with electrical systems, it's best to hire a licensed electrician to do the job for you. That way, you can rest assured that your outlet will be rewired safely and quickly. </p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between my breaker box and meter box?

• <div><p>Your breaker box houses the breakers that control the circuits in your home, shutting them off if they overload or experience similar problems. Your meter box houses your electrical meter that monitors the electricity flowing into your house and measures its use for your utility company.</p><p>In some cases, both components are in the same box, but they don&rsquo;t have to be together. Many homes have them split, with the breaker box inside for easier access and the electric meter outside.</p></div>
