Not all states, counties or towns regulate or require licenses for electricians, so it’s prudent to verify the status of your chosen electrician with your local building department. Also ask if electrical work in your municipality must adhere to standards established by the National Electrical Code.

At Clark Electric Company in Alpharetta, we employ only licensed electricians with the highest professional standards, all of whom always comply with the National Electric Code.

A home electrical system has these built-in safeguards to prevent electrical overload. Too much current causes the breakers to open automatically or the fuses to melt. When a circuit shuts down repeatedly, it’s a warning that should not be ignored.

Clark Electric Co. of Alpharetta will quickly assess your needs and offer an on-the-spot Free Estimate of your solution.

Electrical outlets, especially in older homes, are often spaced too far apart for modern living. This not only creates too much demand on too few outlets, it also poses a hazard when the extension cords are run under rugs and furniture. 

Clark Electric Co. in Alpharetta can quickly install new outlets in the most convenient and widely used locations, eliminating the need for bulky extension cords, strengthening your electrical capacity and making routine activities more accessible.

Even permanent fixtures wear out or suffer the ravages of time. When rust appears on the metal service panel it often indicates a moisture problem or that deterioration has reached an advanced stage.

Clark Electric Co. can help you determine if those old, rusted fixtures represent a hazard, and will help you install new fixtures if necessary.

High-demand appliances such as air conditioners, clothes dryers, refrigerators and furnaces need extra power when they start up. This temporary current draw can be more than just a nuisance; it can damage sensitive equipment.

Clark Electric Co. in Alpharetta can install whole house surge protectors to alleviate the stress on your electrical equipment during power surges.  The cost is minimal and the protection and money you could save in the long run is priceless!

Loose or deteriorating electrical connections, such as the wiring junctions in switches and outlets, impede current flow and create resistance. This may cause a dangerous condition that can result in shock or fire.

It is always best to call Clark Electric Co. of Alpharetta to conduct a complete safety inspection of your electrical connections to promote the welfare of you and your family.

Too many things plugged in at one location can create more current demand than a single outlet or electrical line can safely handle. Adding multiple plug-in strips won’t solve the problem. What you need are additional outlets, and possibly new wiring runs to service them.

If you have multiple plug-in strips throughout your home or business, it is time to call Clark Electric Co. in Alpharetta to free up those floors and put the outlets on the walls where they belong.

The third, or grounding prong on a typical appliance plug provides an extra measure of safety against electrical shock. Older two-prong receptacle outlets installed in homes before this innovation, may not be adequately grounded and should be upgraded.

Clark Electric Co. of Alpharetta can help!  Call us today and we will switch out your old, outdated receptacles and provide you with modern outlets that will accomodate your modern needs.
