"I hired Atlas Electrical Solutions to run a cable from the third floor to the second floor. Youssef was highly professional and discussed the details of the project thoroughly before confirming. He was punctual, and incredibly detail oriented throughout the project. He was also very friendly and courteous. I'd highly recommend Atlas Electrical Solutions!"

"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!"

I will definitely hire them for all my electrical work going forward. I will highly recommend this company to everyone."

"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!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Christmas lights typically do not need to be grounded like electrical circuits in your home do. However, it's crucial to use outdoor outlets equipped with ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) for added safety. GFCIs can help protect against electrical shocks and are recommended for outdoor electrical connections when using Christmas lights.

Systems should be checked every 2-3 years or whenever signs of age appear, maintaining network integrity and safety at all times.

A voltmeter measures the voltage of AC or DC electrical current. Unlike a multimeter, measuring voltage is a voltmeter’s only function. Voltage is the potential difference between two points within a circuit. Measuring voltage with a voltmeter can help identify wiring issues or determine whether a battery is dead.

Yes, an electrical fire can start even if nothing is plugged into an outlet. While a correctly functioning outlet poses no risk, a fire can be caused by faulty wiring, damaged outlet components, an overloaded circuit, or other electrical problems hidden behind the walls. If you suspect a fault, immediately turn off the circuit breaker and contact a professional electrician to diagnose and repair the issue.

Leaving lights on raises the electric bill, but not as much as having high-wattage light bulbs. The best way to save on electric costs is to swap your light bulbs to LED or CFL bulbs that use far fewer watts. You can also use smart lights and light switches to control usage via a smartphone or voice-controlled device.
