After the 1991 passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act, accommodating design became a prerequisite instead of an afterthought for businesses that serve the public. Even for private homes, ADA guidelines provide a good starting place in case your guests–or even you–face disabilities down the road.

Electrical issues have a way of cropping up all of a sudden. At that point of time, the only thing on your mind is that you should be able to contact an electrician who will deal with the issue without delay. If you look online, you will find that Sydney has a large number of electrical companies, big and small and you may feel that identifying a good electrician shouldn’t be much of a challenge.

This could be no further from the truth. There’s much more to zeroing-in on the right electrical contractor that than. As a matter of fact, if you aren’t too particular about who you are hiring for the job that can easily lead to a major fire break-out on your property. This is something you want to avoid under all circumstances. The very first things to take into consideration are:

It’s common knowledge that you would need an electrician to install/ replace/repair/maintain electrical systems. In our country, you are legally permitted to replace light bulbs and operate electrical appliances in just the manner they are designed to be operated. Apart from that, all electrical jobs should be handled by a certified and insured electrician and this can include:

The rule of thumb is that even if you feel a particular job is very minor and you know exactly what you’re doing, it’s important that you call an electrician. It’s vital to understand that any type of DIY electrical work can be extremely dangerous – it can result in fire, damage, injury as well as death.

Indoor Generator Provides 20,000 Watts of Stored Renewable Energy to a Ranch Home, Even When All External Power Supply is Unavailable

Dallas, TX  December 30, 2011– Doug Kerr is the proud owner of a stretch of land located in the rural area of Kaufman County (Texas) where the air is fresh and the hustle and bustle of city life is non-existent. One thing Doug’s land doesn’t have, however, is a city power grid. Traditionally, to gain access to power in an area that hasn’t already been included on the electrical grid, you can pay the local electrical provider a large sum to run new electrical service to your location, or be forced to use noisy, polluting, and high-maintenance fuel-powered generators.

Christmas is upon us again and more than any other time of year, it’s the time of year where people put strain on their electrical system.  The lights on your house and the beautiful decorations you’ve been storing in your attic finally are brought out and plugged in for your friends and neighbors to view and appreciate.  And, of course, the vast majority of homes you visit have at least one Christmas tree.  Since most of these things are electrical, it’s probably not a surprise to you that, as a top Dallas electrician, I start getting a lot of calls this time of year.  Though it’s always nice to have the business with Christmas so close, I thought it’d be great to share with ways to avoid wiring problems with your Christmas decorations this year:

             In general, there are a few important tips that can help you avoid wiring problems.  If your lights look frayed or dangerous, they should always be replaced or repaired before using them, frayed wiring are hazardous.  You should take care that your electrical source is safe before you even begin the installation process.  To avoid the potential for overloads, you should have dedicated circuits installed for your holiday decorations.

Most importantly, you should never try to supply power for your lights without contacting a top Dallas electrician to help you install the necessary equipment and make the necessary safety precautions.  Short cuts are potentially dangerous. I can remember one example where a customer had supplied power to their lights by splicing an extension cord directly into their circuit breaker box!  Even worse, they’d shut the breaker box door, pinching the cabling!  Left unchecked, even if this hadn’t started a fire, damage from a power surge or overload could have easily destroyed their whole breaker, meaning they’d have to spend thousands to repair the damage at the absolute worst time of year!
