Rider Electrical is a small local company located in Bellingham, WA. I enjoy working with homeowners looking for an electrician who can help them with any electrical issues or remodeling projects. My specialties are old knob and tube replacement, troubleshooting dead plugs, broken switches, flickering lights, bulbs that burn out fast, lights that don't turn on, or mystery wires and switches that seem to do nothing. I do all kinds of service change-outs, full electrical remodels, new residential houses or service calls for smaller issues like a plug not working. From large projects to small fixes, Rider Electric can help you with all your electrical, and lighting needs.

"RUN BACKGROUND CHECK before you hire this guy. He seemed a little off working with him, so my curiosity got the better of me and I ran a background check. Turns out Britt(the owner) has a history of DUI and family violence. Take that for what you will but I will not be calling back. -J"

"Garret has practically become a de facto member of our family! He's done amazing work for us, wired the house for solar, put in new plugs, replaced ceiling fans, put in a car-charging outlet, the list goes on. He's super responsive, friendly, knowledgeable, and has been there when we needed him for emergency repairs (I broke an outlet right before listing our house). Can't recommend Aperture highly enough."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

GFCI outlets help prevent dangers from ground faults that can cause shocks. This is a different issue that a ground circuit can’t fully address. It’s best to use GFCI outlets combined with ground circuits for complete protection for you and your electronics.

Yes, an AFCI (arc fault circuit interrupter) outlet also has line and load terminals, although it uses different technology than a GFCI and offers a different kind of protection. AFCIs monitor for internal arc faults, a type of wiring problem that can start an electrical fire.

Local electricians with experience in your area understand the local building codes, which is very important when doing new electrical work. They also have experience with the kind of electrical problems homes in your location may have, and even the components that were used in the original construction, which leads them to make faster and better decisions.

Outdoor outlets should be at least 15-amp, but preferably 20-amp. The exact rating will depend on the electrical load of the devices that will be plugged into the outlet and the capacity of the circuit. It's important not to overload the circuit, which can cause safety hazards such as tripped breakers or electrical fires. In general, a circuit rated for at least 20 amps is recommended for outdoor outlets, while each outlet should be rated for at least 15 amps.

It's less expensive to run power overhead because it doesn’t require excavation, and the power cables are less costly. However, underground electric service is better protected from weather and general wear and tear, so it’s less likely to get damaged. When determining which way to run power, consult a local electrician to get an expect opinion.
