Q: How many volts are in a watt?

• <div><p>Volts and watts aren&rsquo;t directly convertible units&mdash;they measure different aspects of electricity. Volts measure electrical potential, while watts quantify the power. The relationship between the two is defined by the equation: Power (watts)= Voltage (volts) x Current (amperes). In other words, the product of volts and amps results in watts, but there is no fixed conversion of volts into watts.</p></div>

Q: What kind of outlet do I need for an over-the-range microwave?

• <div><p>The size of the microwave you choose may change this answer, but for standard over-the-range microwaves, 120 volts and a three-prong grounded outlet is needed for your device.</p></div>

Q: What questions do I ask an electrician?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s important to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/ask-electricians-5-questions-hiring.htm">ask an electrician a few questions</a> before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you&rsquo;re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:</p><ul><li><p>Are you a full-time electrician?</p></li><li><p>Are you bonded, licensed, and insured?</p></li><li><p>What level of experience do you have as an electrician?</p></li><li><p>Can you please share three references?</p></li><li><p>Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?</p></li><li><p>What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?</p></li><li><p>Will any subcontractors be performing the work?</p></li><li><p>Are permits and inspections required?</p></li><li><p>Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?</p></li><li><p>What is your schedule?</p></li><li><p>Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?</p></li><li><p>Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Do you need a special tool to remove fuses?

• <div><p>Type S or T fuses don&rsquo;t require any special removal or installation tools. However, replacing a cartridge-style fuse is easier and safer when using a fuse-puller tool. All of these tools should be available anywhere you can buy fuses. </p></div>

Q: Should outdoor outlets be 15-amp or 20-amp?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

It’s important to ask an electrician a few questions before you commit to hiring them so you can make an informed decision as a consumer. If you’re getting estimates or considering hiring an electrician, ask them these questions:

Are you a full-time electrician?

What level of experience do you have as an electrician?
Can you please share three references?
Do you do residential or commercial electrical work?
What kinds of electrical work are you most familiar with?
Will any subcontractors be performing the work?
Are permits and inspections required?
Who is responsible for obtaining permits and inspections?
What is your schedule?
Do you offer a guarantee or warranty on your work?
Will you sign a do-not-exceed clause to keep the job within the budget?
