There are some very good reasons to use a licensed electrical contractor, even if you think you can save a few dollars by accepting an unlicensed electrical contractor's offer.
Using a licensed electrical contractor offers protection to the homeowner as they can be assured the contractor knows their trade, and has been tested and certified for this.
A licensed electrical contractor has the equipment, training and experience to get the project done safely and correctly. Capability is one of the most important licensing requirements.

It Is Easy to Forget Just how Dangerous Electricity Can Be
Electricity is an integral part of today's modern world, and sometimes it is easy to forget just how dangerous it can be. Given the correct circumstances, it can kill.
But it can also shock you painfully, damage sensitive equipment, and ignite combustible materials. A small night-light with a 6-watt bulb draws .05 ampere, and even that small amount of current can be fatal.
Current passing through your body can cause electric shock, resulting in potential injuries: burns (arcs burn with heat & radiation) and physical injuries (broken bones, falls, & muscle damage).
Always use a Licensed Electrician for electrical repairs. Call Rogoz Electric at 623-363-5648 for prompt professional electrician services. http://www.myazelectrician.com

Electricity always seeks the shortest path to the ground
Electricity always seeks the shortest path to the ground. It tries to find a conductor, or something that it can pass through to get to the ground, like metal, wet wood or water.
Your body is about 70% water, so that makes you a good conductor, too. For example, if you touch an energized bare wire or faulty appliance while your feet are touching the ground, electricity will automatically pass through you to the ground, causing a harmful, or even fatal shock.
It doesn't take much to get hurt or killed from even a small amount of electricity. So the best thing you can do is be aware of the dangers of electricity, learn how to avoid them and always use a licensed electrical contractor like Rogoz Electric!

Electrical Fire Safety
Most electrical fires result from problems with fixed wiring, such as faulty electrical outlets and old wiring. Problems with cords and plugs, such as extension and appliance cords, also cause many home electrical fires.
Routinely check your electrical appliances and wiring. Frayed wires can cause fires. Replace all worn, old or damaged appliance cords immediately. Use electrical extension cords wisely and don't overload them. Keep electrical appliances away from wet floors and counters.
Pay special care to electrical appliances in the bathroom and kitchen. And of course, always hire a licensed electrical contractor like Rogoz Electric.
