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
