Houston Electrician Q/A

From: Tyson Dunn     need estimate
My AC unit stopped working today. I hit the wires, but reconnected them, but unit never came back on. I have done this a lot and nothing ever happened. There is power at the breaker box, but it is not coming from the house to the AC according to my voltimeter. I figured if there was a short, the fuse would have tripped, but it did not.

I am looking to install a cable outlet in the garage and in the master bathroom on the second floor. There is access to the attic. I am also interested in adding an electrical outlet in the master bathroom as well.

From: Mr. Pat Jones     Electricial issues
My problem started out with plugs not working. After looking to see why they were not working the electrician could not figure it out. Also the lights flicker. Today the AC unit stop working I went out the the breaker and flip the switch but the switch back off again. I don't think its the AC but something going on with the power.

From: mark     Flickering Lights
The lights in my house have begun to flicker. From what I can see they are flickering on all my circuits. Additionally, Centerpoint recently installed the new digital meter. Can you give me a ballpark to troubleshoot this problem, in the event it relates to my house and not Centerpoint?

From: David Kayle     Re: Re: need two plugs
It is a one story house effectively---the one plug needed is about two feet from the breaker box in the garage (only need 15 amp for stereo or low volt power tools--plenty of room in the box for another breaker)--the second plug is in the pool house on the side of the house. I believe you can get power off the pool equipment timer box without having to run another line back to the breaker (15 amp service is fine for low voltage landscape lights and pool house light.
