"The ADS crew is a family and they work together impressively. Maybe I should describe them as highly skilled residential electrical contractors that work with focus, knowledge, skill, talent, speed and are just good folks to talk to. I’ve done work for others and I know the dreaded question “You mind having a look at . . .?” Seriously, the response was “sounds interesting, let’s have a look.” I’m planning a major update to the mid century modern I recently purchased and I can only hope I can get ADS Electric LLC. For the electrical. I’ll wait for them if I have to. If you’re reading this and you have an opportunity to have Alex & Company do your work, sign them up!"

"Prairie View Electric is an A+ business. I did a major remodel and addition which required dealing with old electrical wires going/coming from who knows where, installing electrical both inside and outside the home and added an RV hook up. Dustin was quick, he's a clear communicator and took the time to understand my needs and explain when something needed adjusted instead of just making assumptions. I highly recommend his company and will definitely use them again in the future!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Most ceiling light fixtures only have a black, white, and green wire, but in some cases, you’ll also find a red wire in the box. This is a second hot wire, like the black wire, and is included for ceiling light kits that have a fan.

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

With AC wiring, which is the kind most likely you’ll find at home, the black wire is “hot,” and the white is “neutral.” The bare or green wire is considered the safety ground wire. If you encounter DC wiring, it’s relatively easy to tell positive or negative wires apart. red wires are used to indicate positive voltage and black wires indicate negative voltage.

Yes, California law requires that electricians be licensed by the state in order to do electrical work. However, there is an exception for small jobs valued at $500 or less. In these cases, an unlicensed handyperson is legally allowed to do the work. Limit hiring unlicensed contractors to minor tasks and fixes around your home.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
