Good, qualified electricians in Vancouver, WA or expert well-trained electricians in Portland, OR are familiar with a rather thick and complicated book referred to as “The National Electrical Code.”

Now, of course, most electrical contractors access this National Electrical Code online. Adopted in all 50 states, the NEC is the benchmark for safe electrical design, installation and inspection to protect people and property from electrical hazards.

There are many rules which govern the way wiring is installed, fastened, connected, spliced, sized and how many wires and devices are allowed in so much confined space.

There are rules that apply to the size of an outlet boxes. There are additional rules that dictate the size of a circuit breaker in direct proportion to the size of the wire connected to it.

Before an electrician should be brought in to work on your Portland, Oregon home or your Vancouver, Washington business, make sure that he or she not only understand the “rules”, but that they also are religious about following the safety rules.

Poor workmanship should not be tolerated when it comes to something as dangerous as electricity.

Amp Electric recently came to my home to assist in my remodel of the kitchen. The work they did with all of my lighting was phenomenal. I look forward to hiring them again when I redo the entertainment room!
