"Shah came on time and was a pleasure to work with. He identified the source of the burning smell in our lightswitch and quickly resolved it. He explained how it happend and why it is now resolved. He was extremely helpful in discussing other electrical work that we may do at some point in the future. We haven't decided on those yet, but he was great in explaining the pros and cons of the options that we might have, if we do move forward with those. Great work!"

"Tony came out and gave us 3 estimates for 3 different generators. We chose the Cummins Onan because it suited our needs and provided the quietest operating generator. It also was the highest rated out of the 3. Tony and Marshall dug out a place to set the concrete pad which the generator is placed on.The digging was done neatly. Tony and Marshall then did all the installation of the electrical work. Steve Mays then came and did all the necessary work for the gas lines run and then connected to the generator. Steve worked in our crawlspace running the gas line form the gas meter on the south side of our house to the north side where the generator was located outside nearby our electrical box. Tony and Marshall came back to instruct us in the operation of the generator, which is basically you checking to make sure the green light is always on. Local inspectors gave a green light with the excellent work done. We will need to check the oil ever so often, but that is typically simple. Tony and Marshall and Steve all worked within the timeline which they had given us. They were very professional, caring, neat and extremely well informed about the generator. We had a lot of questions and they answered them all. We called them and they always picked up our calls. We could not have been more pleased with them. If you are looking for a home standby generator, these are the ONLY guys to get!"

"WB Lightning Rods did an excellent job installing lightening rods on our home. The owner stayed onsite the entire time to supervise the work. He took extra care to plan the rod and cable placement to ensure the proper protection and retain the aesthetics of our home. His crew were knowledgeable, polite, neat and efficient. We could not be more pleased with the results."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Using a wire stripper/cutter, strip about 1/2 inch to 1 inch of sheathing from electric wires, depending on the application. A self-adjusting wire stripper/cutter works best, but a standard wire stripper/cutter with holes for different gauges of wire works as well to cut and strip away the sheath without damaging the copper wire inside.

Appliances in your home that need dedicated circuits include:

  • Refrigerators and chest freezers

  • Electric ranges, microwaves, and toaster ovens

  • Dishwashers and garbage disposals

  • Washers and dryers

  • Heating and air conditioning units

  • Hot tubs, saunas, and water pumps

  • Sump pumps

  • Central vacuums

Burnt outlets can be caused by things such as faulty wiring, loose connections, or a circuit overload—and yes, they are extremely dangerous. If you notice your outlet is hot or has burn marks, you should shut off the power to it from the circuit breaker and immediately call an electrician.

You can install a three-prong outlet without connecting any ground and plug in three-prong electronics into that outlet. The devices will function normally, but you won’t get any of the protection that grounding provides, so there’s an increased risk of serious problems if something goes wrong.

For more complex electrical projects, it’s often most efficient and cost-effective to hire an electrician rather than trying to figure it out yourself (and risking electrical problems). Electricians know exactly what a project requires, and can often find supplies or parts for cheaper than the average homeowner. That can save money compared to going it alone.
