Ok, don’t call an electrician, do everything yourself. Then call us when you can’t figure out the situation you got yourself in and we’ll be sure to charge the “homeowner tried to do it themself” price. Cause when we have to figure out your three way switch you messed up, that’s another $250 diagnosis charge.

In the US, we pretty much only use solid wire (Romex) in residential

ok, say you guys give him good advice, doesn’t mean he’s going to do it correctly. I just left a customer’s house, the guy wired up his outlets himself, says he’s done it hundreds of times but for some reason half the room isn’t working. I went to the first outlet, he hadn’t tightened a screw correctly and the wire was just sitting there and heating up because of the bad connection. He was risking a house fire because he didn’t do a “simple” outlet correctly.

Call an electrician. Please don’t be learning on your home around when it comes to electrical.
