May 14th, 2012 Comments off

Electrical projects, whether for a remodel or new construction, should be left to the professionals. Here at J-Five Electric, we offer electrical wiring installation in Richardson TX among our range of services. We employ only the most highly trained, licensed, and background-checked electricians, so you can trust us when we come to your home.

As residential electricians, we provide any electrical service you would need for your home. Large or small, our electricians do it all. Wiring projects are one of the most difficult tasks for a homeowner to do because they require intimate knowledge of how to run the wires through the walls without damaging other components. The wiring must also be done to meet the strict electrical building code. If it does not, your home will not pass inspection, meaning that it is likely not safe. Avoid this problem by having us install your electrical wiring in your new home, addition construction, or in a remodel.

Not only do we do installations of wiring, but we can repair problems with the wiring, too. If you have a problem with light fixtures not working or appliances randomly shutting off, you may need electrical repairs for your wiring system. Old wiring that needs to be rewired or code violations with your wiring can be fixed by our professional electricians. No matter what type of repair you need with your electrical system, we have the training to get it diagnosed and fixed.

Your home’s electrical system is the basis for many of the modern conveniences you have: computers, televisions, refrigerators, and more. A problem with your electrical wiring could be serious and potentially cause a fire or prevent your home from passing an inspection. Get your wiring fixed or have a new wiring system installed by our trusted electricity experts. Give us a call today at J-Five Electric for your electrical wiring installation needs.

Tripping Shouldn’t Lead to Overreacting

March 3rd, 2011 Comments off

Avoid Outlet OverloadYou ever warm something up in the microwave, and then all of a sudden, for no reason whatsoever, the microwave stops working? This can be frustrating – particularly if your microwave is somewhat new.

Before jumping to conclusions, our Dallas TX electricians understand that the problem may not be the microwave at all. Some people don’t realize that when it comes to electrical outlets, it’s as simple as flipping off – and then on again – a circuit breaker.

Microwaves draw quite a bit of power, and if they are sharing an outlet with another appliance that draws a lot of power, it may lead to a circuit tripping. Other appliances that use lots of power are electrical heaters, large televisions, DVD players and computers. Keep in mind that an outlet can only do so much – and if you try to overwork it, it’ll let you know by shutting everything down.

Fortunately, this problem is resolved simply by going to your circuit box and resetting the circuit. Simply turn the circuit for five seconds and then turn it on to restore power. If your power doesn’t come back on after this, you have an electrical issue, and you must call a certified electrician.

For all of your electrical inquiries, do not hesitate to contact our qualified technicians. Call our Dallas electrical company today, or contact us online.

Watt-Hour Meters are Solid Investments

January 27th, 2011 Comments off

Watt-Hour MeterWhether it’s your 60-inch television or the small lamp in the baby’s room, keep in mind that everything electrical can be measured in terms of how much energy it uses.

In looking at the amount of electricity used, one device that has proven to be reliable and somewhat inexpensive is a watt-hour meter. With the cheaper wall-socket models priced roughly around $25 (give or take a few dollars), a watt-hour meter measures the electricity used at that given moment, as well as over a period of time.

A watt-hour meter is plugged into an electrical outlet. The device (your TV, the lamp, etc.) is then plugged into the meter. The meter then will display how many watts (kilowatt hours) that device uses. Watt-hour meters are extremely beneficial in calculating how much power is used for large appliances (refrigerators, washer machines, etc.), as well as vampire appliances (appliances that use – or “suck” – power even in off or standy mode) such as that lovely big-screen TV in your living room.

Many electrical experts will suggest investing in a watt-hour meter, as they will assist in you saving money each month. Our Dallas TX electrical experts are available to answer all of your questions about the meters or anything associated with electrical energy. Feel free to call our Dallas electrical company today, or contact us online.
