"I contacted Jake, and he set up the appt after we discussed the work needed. I needed a GenerLink meter mounted transfer switch. Other contractors I called had no idea what I was talking about and quoted some crazy high rates. Jake knew what the GenerLink was, and quoted a fair rate. His bother John arrived a few minutes before he was schedule, and got right to work. A short time later, he was done, he cleaned up, and we settled the bill. I will call them again, when I need electrical help, and will recommend them to my friends and neighbors. - Mike"

"I had called Northman Electric about getting a generator hook up installed as my home tends to loose power during the winter months. They were able to provide me a couple of options at varying price ranges over the phone. I had settled on the cheapest option and there was no upselling or pushing product. They came out a couple of days later, did the job, and kept their word on the price that was discussed. Overall, great work and happy with the end result."

"I had two small jobs that needed done. Install a thermostat and put the wiring to the cooktop into an electrical box. Both took less than half an hour to complete. Still had to pay for the first hour which is understandable. Wish I had more work for them to do. I would call them again based on this visit."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Yes, most electric and automatic gates can be opened manually. They are equipped with a manual override or release mechanism that detaches the motor from the gate, allowing it to be moved by hand. This feature is essential during power outages or other emergencies.

To activate the manual override, you will typically need a specific key or tool. In some cases, you may also need a screwdriver to remove a cover to access the release mechanism. The use of a key is a common security measure to prevent unauthorized individuals from manually opening the gate.

Because every model is different, it is highly recommended to consult your gate's user manual to familiarize yourself with the specific procedure before you need to use it. Keep any necessary keys or tools in an accessible location. Be aware that automatic gates can be very heavy, so opening and closing them manually may be difficult.

In North America, electric gates are also subject to the UL 325 Standard for Safety, which includes provisions to allow emergency responders to access the property.

Common warning signs of an overloaded electrical panel or meter box include frequent circuit breaker tripping, flickering or dimming lights, scorch or burn marks, and a burning scent coming from the panel. A circuit breaker trips as a protective measure to prevent overheating and potential fires. If you observe any of these signs, turn off the affected circuit breaker and move some devices to a different circuit. If the problem persists after turning the breaker back on, you should contact a professional electrician to resolve the issue.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

Several signs can indicate a light switch is bad. If the switch feels loose, slides down after you flip it, or requires multiple flicks to turn the light on, it may be failing. Other common indicators include flickering lights or a general failure to turn the light on or off. Pay attention to any unusual sounds, such as crackling, buzzing, or popping when you operate the switch. More serious signs, which can present a fire or shock hazard, include the switch feeling excessively warm or hot, sparking, smoking, or emitting a burning smell. If you notice any of these dangerous signs, stop using the switch immediately and call an electrician.

To upgrade electrical systems in older homes, you might need to reroute new wires with lath and plaster walls. That’s because it’s more challenging to get inside the walls of an older home compared to a modern home, which usually uses drywall. But there are easier ways to level up your electrical game in an older home. For instance, you can swap out an old furnace for a new electric heat pump, or you could use a heat pump for water heating.
