Zaaap!

Not everyone feels comfortable working with electricity…nor should you!  Using common sense helps. You decide whether you should consider this a DIY job or you should hire a professional who has worked with electricity many times prior. You will need a voltage tester and uninhibited access to the housebreaker for starters.

In newer homes around the Dallas area, a third wire will probably be coiled around a blue screw on the original switch. This wire is known as the ground wire, and it will need to be reattached to the new switch. If you own an older home in the Metroplex, the ground wire may NOT be available to reconnect.

All of this means that 'zap' is a very possible outcome! Not appealing sounding? How about calling the ultimate handyman electricians? That is Home Pro Contractors of Dallas.
