"E C Electronics did a great job installing our 65" OLED TV. Hid wires, to the AV system up and running, etc. They also took our ceiling fan down, mounted two Ring Door Bells (ran electric for one of them, mounted a Ring Flood cam and a few other misc. items. They communicated very well about everything. I would definitely hire them again!"

Electrical FAQs, answered by experts

Old electrical systems may have more problems than newer ones. In some cases, like if your home has aluminum wiring, it may be necessary to update your electrical system. You should also update your home’s wiring if it still has knob and tube wiring, which is considered dangerous by modern building standards. If that applies to you, get in touch with an electrical professional near you to obtain a quote.

You should hire a licensed electrician who is insured to perform any electrical work on your home, including lighting installation. States have different requirements for licensing and certifying electricians, so use Angi’s state licensing tool to review local guidelines.

Here are a few questions to ask electricians before hiring:

  • How many years of electrical experience do you have?

  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?

  • Do you work with subcontractors?

  • Do you provide a guarantee or warranty on your work?

  • What is the timeline for completion?

  • How do you handle change orders?

  • Can you provide at least three customer references?

You can install a dimmer switch on almost any light as long as the switch, bulb, wiring, and wattage are compatible. Check what kind of light you have, the type of light bulb, and the total wattage of the bulbs to ensure your dimmer is a match. You’ll want to choose a non-neutral wire dimmer if you don't have neutral wiring. Homes built before 1985 that don't have updated electrical systems may not have neutral wiring.

No, not all thermostats require a C-wire. Older manual and programmable thermostats typically do not need one. While many smart thermostats do require a C-wire to function correctly, some models can operate without one, often at the expense of certain features. A C-wire provides a constant source of power, which enables the thermostat to stay connected to Wi-Fi and keep its display screen lit on-demand. If you are upgrading from an older thermostat to a smart model that requires a C-wire, you may need to install one first for it to work as intended.

The National Electric Code states that outlets should not be spaced more than 12 feet apart, and there should be an outlet placed every 6 feet at the floor line in areas designated as living spaces. Most homes in the United States have 75 outlets, but it will depend on the amount you need based on your home's size and your needs.
