Whether you rent, buy or build a house, you have a right to expect a satisfactory electrical system. Climbing up and removing a light bulb each time the perco lator or vacuum cleaner is connected, is neither satisfactory or neces sary. " It is one of the costs of cut-rate electrical work that isn't ' mentioned in the bid. Cut-rate electrical contracting service is never economical. When the bid ' is too low the householder pays. He pays not only in inconvenience, but in repairing faulty material ,and workmanship that helped make the low bid possible. And what does the low bid amount to in dollars and cents? Usually there is only a difference of about onehalf of one per cent ($50.00 on a $10,000.00 house) between the bid of the qualified, responsible "contractor who provides a complete and satisfactory installation, employing standard materials ancfc good workmanship and the bid of the irresponsible, slipshod contractor. Knowing this, and knowing, too, that its success, as well as the welfare of the entire electrical industry, depends upon the electrical consumer, ie( Pacific States Electric Company, the largest distributors of electrical merchandise on the Pacific Coast distributes its standard materials and appliances through electrical contractors and dealers who are .qualified as to responsibility and technical competence.
