Common Questions

Residential Electrical FAQs

Common questions from Triangle homeowners about residential electrical services. Don’t see yours? Call us directly — we’re happy to help.
How much can I actually save by switching to LED lighting?
Most homes see a 60 to 75 percent reduction in lighting energy costs after switching to LEDs. A typical 60-watt incandescent bulb uses 60 watts. An equivalent LED uses just 9 watts. Over a year, that single bulb saves about 45 kilowatt-hours. Multiply that across 30 or 40 fixtures. Your annual savings add up quickly. Often $200 to $400 per year for an average home.
Older rotary and slide dimmers designed for incandescent bulbs often cause LEDs to flicker, buzz, or fail to dim smoothly. We test your current dimmers. We replace them with electronic dimmers specifically rated for LED loads when needed. Some quality LED bulbs work fine with existing dimmers. But compatibility varies. We verify everything functions properly before we finish the job.
Yes, we do fluorescent to LED conversions regularly in garages, basements, and commercial spaces. We typically remove the old ballasted fixtures completely. Then we install new LED strip fixtures or retrofit kits. This eliminates ballast hum and the maintenance headache of replacing fluorescent tubes. The new LEDs provide better light quality. They turn on instantly even in cold temperatures. Most conversions pay for themselves in energy savings within three years.
No, LED fixtures use standard 120-volt household wiring. They actually reduce the load on your circuits. Where you previously might have had six 100-watt bulbs pulling 600 watts, equivalent LEDs draw only about 90 watts total. We verify your existing boxes and wiring are in good condition during installation. Some specialty LEDs use low-voltage drivers. We install and wire them according to manufacturer specifications and NEC requirements.
We typically recommend 2700K to 3000K warm white for living spaces, bedrooms, and dining areas. It mimics traditional incandescent light. Kitchens and bathrooms work well with 3500K to 4000K for better task visibility. Garages, workshops, and offices often benefit from 5000K daylight color for detail work. We bring samples when possible. You can see the difference before making a final decision on your installation.

Yes, we regularly install dimmable LEDs in three-way and four-way switch configurations. The key is using one compatible LED dimmer at the primary location. Standard three-way switches go at other locations. Or we install matching companion dimmers at each switch point. We make sure all switches and fixtures work together without flickering or dropout issues. These setups require careful product selection but function perfectly when installed correctly.
