Important things you should know about Electricians

Are Electricians licensed?
Electricians working in the State of Texas are required to be licensed by the by the “Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation”
Are there different levels of Licensing?
Yes, there are 4 levels of licensing for Electricians.
Apprentice Electrician Someone new to the trade is considered an Apprentice. Upon 2 years of supervised training and obtaining a passing score on an electrical exam, they become a Wireman Electrician. Wireman Electrician A Wireman Electrician is able to work unsupervised in any residential home. They cannot work in the commercial field without a Journeyman Electrician present. Journeyman Electrician At Caddell, all of the electricians we send to your home to work on your electrical system hold this license. To be a Journeyman Electrician, one must complete 8000 hours of work under a Master Electrician and pass a written exam. Master Electrician A Master Electrician is just that, a Master. All electrical contracting companies MUST have a Master Electrician on board to oversee the electrical work being performed on a daily basis. Do electrical contractors have insurance?
Yes, all electrical contracting companies must be licensed as an electrical contractor in the State of Texas. This is designed to insure customer safety and protection by requiring the licensed company maintain a minimum adequate general liability insurance policy. It also requires the company to be directly supervised by a licensed Master Electrician.

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!!!!!! It is absolute imperative that you check the status of any electrician before you hire them. There are MANY unlicensed electricians operating illegally all around Dallas, Plano, Garland and smaller cities. These illegal electricians even advertise that they operate with insurance and proper license. Just because you find an electrician on the internet or in a phone book doesn’t mean they are licensed. You can check the status of any electrician or electrical repair company in the state of Texas at http://www.license.state.tx.us. Don’t be afraid to ask any electrical contractor for their license number. If the contractor is following the rules he will be happy to give it to you.

Some Easy Electricity Saving Tips in Plano

Saving energy is one of the easiest ways to curb household expenses. Everyone likes to save money and minimizing utility bills is one of the easiest ways, but many of us lack the information to be efficient and conserving. Here are some easy tips to lower your electricity bill. If you live in Plano the climate is unique and these are fairly common, yet little known, tips that just about any Plano electrician professional should be able to give you.
Light and appliances turned OFF!
The simplest way to save energy is to remember to turn off lights as you leave the room. With lighting, compact fluorescent light bulbs are the best at conserving energy, as they use 75 % less energy than an average light bulb. The same goes for all appliances, simply turn off a device, which is not in use and significantly lower your bills. In the Plano market, there are now low cost devices available from electricians and electrical supply stores, that can sense when a light or an appliance is no longer needed and automatically shut the device off. It can also be set to automatically turn on!
Temperature Comfort
  • Always purchase your heating and cooling machines with an ENERGY STAR® rating, as it was built to save energy.
  • Keep your furnace clean, lubricated, and properly maintained with annual maintenance from professionals; you could consult an electrician in the Fort Worth area for quotes on maintenance contracts.  If your furnace is working at peak efficiency, it will use less energy and this offsets the cost of maintenance. Proper professional maintenance can save you money.
  • Change your air conditioning filters after every 1-3 months, depending on usage and the changing Plano weather. Dirty or clogged filters cause air conditioners to use more energy.
  • Don’t switch off the air conditioning when you are out of the room or the house just for a short time. As the room warms up and starts to match the outside temperature, it will use more energy to cool the room back down than if you had maintained a level temperature and let the thermostat do its job.
  • Install a programmable thermostat, which helps to maintain an energy efficient temperature for your house according to your own comfort level.
  • Use ceiling fans as opposed to air conditioning when the temperature outside is moderate as they significantly make the room cooler at fraction of the cost.
Laundry and cleaning
  • Use a front loading washing machine with a full load in cold water, as 85-90 % consumption of energy happens in heating the water while washing.
  • Use the dishhwasher only with a full load and use the option of air-dry on the ‘energy saver’ setting.
Windows, doorframes, sills and joints
  • On a sunny day, open your windows to get natural sun light and allow a breeze to flow through the house.
  • Apply a sealant, and plastic covers around windows, door frames, sills and joints to keep cold out in winter and cold in during summer. Also insulate your basement walls.
  • Plug in gaps around pipes, vents, ducts, and fans to avoid leakage of conditioned air.
Paying attention to these small things and holding yourself and your family to a certain set of rules until they become a habit can save hundreds of dollars per year on your energy bills.

Different Types of Services Available at Caddell Eletric

Caddell Electric was first opened in 1999, and is a proud employer of highly qualified and trained electricians in Dallas. We have remained an A+ company for almost 20 years due to the professionalism and dedication of our employees.

We offer the following services to our customers across the DFW metro.

·         Electrical Panels
·         Surge Suppression
·         Commercial Lighting

Electrical Panels

Being the most significant part of your electrical system, it needs regularly scheduled care regularly to avoid fires and electrical issues.

If you happen to have installed a Federal Pacific or Zinsco electrical panel, replace immediately with new panels. Those brands have lost their UL listings, and can be a major fire threat.  Caddell Electric can help you in the replacement  process at affordable prices. 

Surge Suppression
When you want all the electronic devices in your office to be safe from power surges and spikes, you need to install a surge suppressor that can guard your entire electrical system. This equipment is directly hooked up to your electrical panel to do the job properly. Any lines having signals into your building can bring a power surge, so it’s smart to protect your electrical devices.

Commercial Lighting

Make your office brighter and a more pleasant to work by letting Caddell Electric, the lighting experts, plan the right lighting to please your employees, your customers and your budget.
