"Just had an electrician from Wired Up Electric come to my house to fix a faulty outlet, and let's just say things got a little...charged. No pun intended. But seriously, this guy was a total pro and had my outlet fixed in no time. He even offered to show me some basic electrical safety tips, which was super helpful. If you're having any electrical issues, definitely give Wired Up Electric a call. They'll shock you with their excellent service!"

"Mr White went beyond what he actually had to do. He checked the entire house for us and even found a mistake in the fuse box and put in new switches. He repaired the electric box. Our family really loved him and we don't like many people but he was very special. He was awesome!"

"I was in a sticky situation. My contractor was unprofessional and was overcharging. John stepped in and worked out a reasonable price. His worker Aaron was respectful and lovely to deal with. I live a little far from Morgantown WV. It was part of the contract for me to always be second, but the job got done. I would recommend. John and Arron were very nice to work with"

Electrical questions, answered by experts

It might seem tempting to use 14-gauge wires for your outlets, as they can run a little cheaper. But, when it comes to electrical work, it’s best not to cut costs less you overload your circuit. A 12-gauge wire will ensure that you’re protecting the outlet (and your circuit breaker) from any potential overloads that might incur, as it can handle a little more amplitude than a 14-gauge wire.

In addition to grounding your outlets, you may want to hire an electrician for the following:

These additional electrical services ensure that your home’s electrical system is in working order and will accommodate your ground outlets.

According to the National Electrical Code (NEC), GFCI outlets should be installed in wet or damp locations where they might be splashed with water or other liquids. This is to protect against ground faults, which are more common around water. Specific areas that require GFCI outlets include kitchens (especially near counters), bathrooms, laundry rooms, basements, garages, and all outdoor receptacles. Depending on local electrical codes, you may need at least one GFCI outlet in these rooms, or every outlet in the area may need to be GFCI protected.

According to the National Electrical Code® (NEC®), the electrical code for kitchen outlets states that electrical outlets in a kitchen should be installed no more than 48 inches apart. This ensures that a receptacle is no further away than 24 inches from any place on the countertop. Countertops wider than 12 inches need an outlet on the wall above the countertop.

Incandescent lights are glass bulbs with metallic filaments inside, while LEDs feature “light emitting diodes” that illuminate when they come in contact with an electrical current. You can buy either for your Christmas lights, but note that LED lights are more energy-efficient and have a longer lifespan.
