Here are some electrician tips on avoiding shocking surprises. As with any electrical task, we suggest using a trained professional such as Effective Electric.
Avoid surprises
Use a noncontact voltage detector to check every wire in the box or area you’re working. Always check the tester on a wire or cord you know is live to make sure it’s working before you rely on it. Noncontact voltage detectors are available at home centers, hardware stores and online and range in price from $5 to $25. The Klein NCVT-1 tool has a green light that indicates it’s turned on and working — a nice feature that’s well worth the extra money.
