Testimonials

Great help on a 3-Way wiring diagram from your website.  Much appreciated, as I have had the same 3 Way switch, non-operational, for over 5 years.. arghhh...I know it is a simple thing yet looking at both sets of wires and trying to imagine the wire runs was a bit aggravating but you made it simpler!

Your website is great.  I have it bookmarked and now visit frequently.  I have no previous electrical experience and your website helped me redo some wiring correctly and way easier than I thought it would be.

Thanks again.

Hi Terry,

I stumbled onto your website while doing a Google search for an electrical panel that's being installed in my new home that's currently being built.

Even though I've been doing my own electrical work for many years (I am not a contractor), I found your site to be a  valuable resource of information for all things electrical. Your site is much appreciated. Thank you.

 
Regards,

Just to let you know that all went well.  It is so much easier when you know what wire to connect where.  Money well spent.

When I needed help wiring a three-way switch, I found simple, easy-to-follow instructions on www.electrical-online.com.  So when I undertook the job of completely rewiring a recently purchased home, I went straight to them for help.  Terry Peterman answered promptly, and I was able to start the job within days.  He provided the technical expertise to plan things out, including advice on panel choice and location.  He prepared me to communicate effectively with a local contractor to patch the new panel to the old, so that I could begin wiring circuits into the new panel while the old panel provided continuous service.  He helped me design the circuits and answered all my questions as work progressed - sometimes responding by email in the middle of the night.

It took me ten months, but I recently completed the job.  I've never seen a house with a more logical electrical layout, all clearly marked and documented.  And with four small children, it brings me great comfort to know that everything is properly polarized and ground-fault protected.

To Terry and Sandy Peterman, all I can say is an emphatic THANK-YOU!  You saved me over $5k, and you've given my family peace of mind.
