"I hired HES last year to do an upgrade on our electrical panel. There wasnt a day that went by without our electrical panel popping or power going out. Our house was built in 1962 so it was 58 years old and had nothing done to it. During this process the previous box disintegrated and additional repairs needed to be made! It was a worse case scenario.. it didnt phase HES, they were quick and prompt to take care of the issue and completed the project on time ! Even though there was additional money due to the worse case incident, It was still within my budget guidelines. I have never felt more taken care and received such a great customer service in Moses Lake in a VERY LONG TIME! HES not only took care of the items listed but was polite and very punctual. I would recommend HES ANYTIME AND WITHOUT RESERVATION !! Thank you HES for such good quality work."

"Found thru Angi. Asked for bids from 3 companies and they replied immediately. Of the bids, their's was the most comprehensive. They explained some upgrades that should be made but never pressured me to take them. Also had old electrical box upgraded. They were on time, completed job in time said, and no mess was left. They explained the different options to finance. They genuinely care about the work they did, the customer, and finished the job professionally and in the time they said. I would highly recommend this company for future repair work."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

A breaker won’t always trip if an outlet burns out. If the outlet is overloaded or has a short circuit, the breaker is designed to trip and discontinue power to the outlet. However, some wiring problems that can burn out an outlet may not cause the breaker to trip, so don’t rely on it as a signal that something is wrong.

If wiring in a relatively modern home is damaged due to sudden events like a fire, a tree falling into the house, or a flood, then homeowners insurance is very likely to cover the cost of replacing the wire.

However, if it’s determined that wiring failed or started the fire because of age, neglect, or not meeting current electrical standards, then insurance won’t be covering any replacement. Also, insurance policies may charge more for particularly old kinds of wiring like aluminum wiring or deny applications altogether. 

You can determine whether you have a double-pole switch by examining its wiring. Unlike single-pole switches, which have two brass-colored terminals, double-pole switches feature four. These switches are typically only found near high-powered appliances such as electric furnaces or water heaters. If you’re unsure what type of switch you have, contact a local electrician to confirm.

While most electrical items can be plugged into a GFCI outlet, some appliances with internal or stationary motors, such as refrigerators, vent fans, and fluorescent lighting, can cause nuisance tripping. This happens because they experience a small, normal amount of current leakage, which can cause the GFCI to trip even when the appliance is working correctly. Although this is not a safety hazard, it can be inconvenient and may cause the GFCI outlet to wear out faster. For this reason, it is often better to plug these types of appliances into a standard outlet. Additionally, electrical circuits over 100 feet long can sometimes cause tripping. Some appliances, like hair dryers, have their own built-in GFCI protection, so connecting them to a standard outlet is fine.

If the electrical wires you’re working with are too short, one of the easiest ways to elongate it is to extend them with a push-in connector. These user-friendly tools help you splice two wires together with little fuss or the need for extra tools, like a crimping tool, which is an older way of extending wires. As long as you can stripe the ends of a wire, using a push-in connector shouldn’t be an issue.
