"Sean arrived on time and immediately got to work mounting my TV above my fireplace. He mounted both the soundbar and the cable box to the TV, installed a new electrical outlet and pulled the cable to a new outlet on the wall behind the TV so that no wiring can be seen. He also installed a new box with extra cable hidden behind it to allow for the blu-ray to be connected, again, so that no wiring was hanging from the mantle, which was the reason for my calling them to begin with. When John came to help hang the TV he also checked the additional wiring in the house and found that some of it was older. He explained the difference and that it may work ok (so that he didn't have to charge me for any extra re-wiring) but I would know what to tell the cable company if I had to have them come out to activate the new boxes. Sean installed or moved four boxes throughout the house. Once done, Sean cleaned up and vacuumed up any mess left behind. This young man worked tirelessly from 8:00 am until well after 4:00 pm with no breaks. I will definitely be calling them again if the need arises and would absolutely recommend them to anyone that needs wiring work done in their home!!"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

If you need to run a wire from the meter to the breaker box, start by turning off the power using the main switch to avoid injury risks from live wires. Then, locate the ground wire from your meter and connect it to the ground bar of the breaker box. Connect the neutral wire using the same method to improve your circuit efficiency.

Next, locate the hot wires running from the main switch to the meter. To connect them to the correct terminals from meter to breaker, unscrew the nuts of the breaker hotwire terminals, insert the positive hotwire, and ensure it’s firmly attached. Finally, secure the wires with electrical tape and wire tie cables before re-securing your breaker box. Keep in mind that this process can be dangerous, so don’t hesitate to hire a local electrician.

The number of outdoor outlets that can be on one circuit depends on the circuit's capacity and the electrical load of each outlet. Outdoor outlets should ideally be on a dedicated circuit that is not shared with other outlets, and each outlet should be rated for at least 15 amps. A circuit rated for at least 20 amps is recommended. It’s important to use GFCI protection for all outdoor outlets to prevent electrical shocks. Overall, it's crucial to avoid overloading the circuit and take necessary safety precautions.

Electric water heaters use a high amount of electricity, so they’re best for homeowners who subsidize their electric bill with solar or who live in an area with inexpensive electricity. For others, gas water heaters versus electric water heaters may be the more cost-effective solution, with the added bonus of heating water quickly and efficiently. No matter which you choose, you can lower your water temperature as low as possible to keep costs down.

No. Blue wires and black wires are different. Even though both are used as hot wires, they serve different functions. Black wires are far more common in residential properties. They are always hot, can be positive or negative, and usually carry electricity from a power source to an outlet. Blue wires have a specialized usage in residential properties, generally as traveler wires, and are more common in commercial properties.

Many homes have a 200-amp service, which requires a 2-inch electrical meter riser. Larger homes or homes that require more energy for several appliances and devices may have a 400-amp service. For 400-amp service, opt for a 4-inch electrical meter riser.
