"Max was excellent to deal with and very flexible. The work required replacement of four flourescent lights, an outdoor spot light and dealing with several electrical outlets. The cost of the work was reasonable and Max completed the work in a minimum amount of time. Great job!"

"The ac coil ( defective part) was still under warranty, but the labor to replace it was not. The service man was here for 4 l/2 hours (he could have used another technician to help him). The first problem was that he was giving the wrong part for my ac unit, so he had to take the part back to Harker and retrieve the correct part (took about 40 minutes). It was a cool day, so it was difficult to properly test the unit after the installation. The technician said it would be necessary to return on a warm day to properly test it. To date, that has not happened, and we have had temperatures in the 90's for a week now. When finally finished, the bill was $657. And this is after an initial "spring tune up" (two weeks prior) that cost $262. Outrageous! I didn't get a paper copy as the technician figured the bill on his computer. I wrote the company and asked for a paper copy, and got one, but again, nothing was detailed, and it just said the bill was $657."

Electrical questions, answered by experts

The standard copper wire gauge to use with any 30-amp circuit is a 10-gauge wire. The National Electric Code specifies a 10-gauge wire with appliances like water heaters running on 30 amps. If you try to use a smaller gauge wire, such as a 12 gauge, with a 30-amp breaker, you run the risk of the wire overheating and melting or causing a fire. Because of the safety hazards, the gauge of the wire is not an area to try to cut costs when connecting a 30-amp breaker to a water heater.

Full home electrical inspections are mandatory if you’re buying a new home, but if you’re just looking for a safety checkup, you have some flexibility. If you don’t have any concerns and your property is relatively new, a basic inspection is usually sufficient. If it’s been a long time since your home was last inspected, or it’s an older home, a full home inspection can help catch any concerns that may fly under the radar.

If a 240V appliance is connected to a 120V outlet, the lower voltage will cause that appliance to receive insufficient power. This may result in reduced performance, malfunctions, or even damage to the appliance's components. Depending on the size of your electrical circuit, you’ll likely need to reset a tripped circuit breaker at the very least.

The most likely cause of accidentally flashing lights is that a regular bulb has been replaced with a flash bulb by accident. If that’s not the case, you should look for a bulb on the strand that is not quite seated properly and will lose its connection when it’s touched or moved.

How many string lights can be on one outlet depends on a number of varying factors, including the total wattage of your circuit, the type of lights, the energy needs of the lights, and cord specifications. It’s better to play it safe here to protect your circuit, so figure out the max wattage of your circuit, compare that to the lights, and move on from there. Generally speaking, LED string lights require less energy than incandescent bulbs, translating to a higher number of lights per circuit.
