The U.S. Fire Administration estimates that there are more than 67,000 fires every year in the country that can be traced to an electrical problem. Obviously, relying on a qualified electrician is important from a safety standpoint.

When hiring an electrician, you should ask for a detailed estimate that lists all aspects of the job and any associated costs. This helps ensure everyone understands the project details and can prevent any future confusion.

When you replace your appliances, look for Energy Saver models that use less electricity and save you money. Make sure to use the energy efficient settings on your new appliances, too. Get rid of any extra appliances you don't need, as well.

Use your microwave instead of your oven. They use about 50 percent less energy than a conventional oven, and they heat much more quickly, too. If you're making a large meal, the stove is usually more efficient to heat up everything at once.

Did you know that about 50,000 house fires occur each year because of electrical problems? Having an electrician inspect your home at least once a year for fire and safety hazards can keep you, your home, and your family safe.

A portable generator can also serve your power needs if the power goes off. They can also be wired to your electric panel, but many people keep them totally portable and just bring them out when the power goes down. Generators usually run on gasoline, diesel, or propane gas.

There are some larger jobs that may require that the power be turned off temporarily to your home. An experienced electrician can keep the interruption as short as possible and is more likely to do the job right the first time.
