Atlanta electrical contractors offer a wide range of residential services, including computer, data, and telephone cabling; electric circuit testing; indoor and outdoor accent and security lighting; rewiring and remodeling; and storm damage repair.
In addition to providing electrical services and repairs, many Atlanta electrical companies also sell and install back-up generators. These generators run on natural gas, propane, gasoline, or diesel and provide homes with electricity after power outages. Electricians sell automatic and manual generators. Automatic generators are more expensive; however, they have an option that senses the loss of power and automatically starts the generator. Manual generators are a less expensive option that homeowners usually keep in storage and plug in after power outages. A transfer switch has to be installed in order to use a generator. This switch should only be installed by a qualified Atlanta electrician.
Hiring licensed Atlanta electrical professionals who are experienced in the industry is important in guarding against faulty electrical wiring. Following any new construction, including room additions or basement finishing, an electrical inspection is usually required. County electrical inspectors are available to perform the inspections. Electricians should get the permit and schedule the inspection. Home Reports has compiled a list of Atlanta electricians who consistently receive high ratings from their clients.
