"We had a brand new microwave and it kept shorting out. They fixed the electrical outlet and changed the fuse in the microwave. Took them about an hour to do the repairs and I haven't had anymore problems. They are very good at their job and knowledgeable."

"Did an excellent job meeting our expectations and concerns. Very efficient operation with quality work. Owner personally provided estimate and returned with crew next day for installation. Installation employees were courteous, friendly and did excellent job. Very satisfied with the work. May never know if effective in avoiding damage from lightning strike but that is a good thing as the alternative can be life changing as our neighbors learned the hard way."

"The electrician, Chris, arrived within the time frame provided when the appointment was made. He introduced himself, then gathered the necessary tools from his truck.  He was very efficient, professional, courteous and personable.  He took all used parts with him and ensured furniture that was moved to gain access was restored to its original location. 

The entire experience was very positive - from making the appointment with the owner of the company through the installation of the replacement parts.  I will definitely use Go Green Electric for all future electrical needs and encourage others to give them a try.  It was evident from my conversations with the owner that this company truly emphasizes customer satisfaction."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

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. 

You can add an electrical outlet outside by sending a wire through the wall from an existing interior outlet. Without having to open up walls, you can thread a new electrical cable from the existing outlet through the wall and to the exterior. You’ll need to cut a hole in the siding to place your new outlet. Ensure that your outdoor outlet is a GFCI outlet (ground fault circuit interrupter outlet) per the National Electrical Code. It’s best to hire an electrician to add an outdoor outlet unless you have previous electrical experience.

If a 240V appliance is connected to a 120V outlet, the lower voltage will cause that appliance to receive insufficient power. This may result in reduced performance, malfunctions, or even damage to the appliance's components. Depending on the size of your electrical circuit, you’ll likely need to reset a tripped circuit breaker at the very least.

There are a few signs of a faulty or failing dimmer switch. This includes your dimmer overheating or feeling warm to the touch, buzzing or clicking noises coming from the dimmer, your dimmer failing to properly dim the lights, and flickering lights. That said, these signs could signal other electrical issues. You’ll need a pro to figure out if your dimmer is the source.

Yes, GFCI breakers are required for all outdoor outlets. This code requirement applies to all outlets located on balconies, decks, patios, and other outdoor lounge spaces. In addition, outdoor outlets need to have watertight covers that provide protection when cords are plugged in. If you have an older home that may not be up to code, it's a good idea to also ask your electrician about adding GFCIs to some indoor areas. Kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and any other areas of a home that are commonly exposed to moisture should have GCFI breakers.
