Community overview

r/AskElectricians describes itself as a community where users may ask for help with DIY electrical projects. Its rules prohibit incorrect, unsafe, or hazardous information.

What to include in a question

The sidebar asks you to include your location, including your state, and assumes you are in the US unless you say otherwise. Explain the situation clearly and include the other facts needed to understand which rules may apply. Community responses may still be incomplete or wrong.

Use the discussion carefully

Online replies are not an inspection, permit decision, or substitute for qualified on-site help. Stop and contact a qualified professional or responsible authority when the work is hazardous or outside your competence.
