Professional Outlet & Plug Installation by Licensed Atlanta Electricians

Whether you're dealing with loose plugs, scorched outlets, or simply need more power access in your home or commercial space, it's essential to have your electrical outlets installed or repaired by a licensed electrician. Outdated or poorly wired outlets pose serious risks—including electrical fires, appliance damage, and even injury.

At Atlanta Master Electricians, we provide safe, code-compliant outlet and plug services for residential and commercial clients across the Atlanta metro and surrounding counties. From new installations to full outlet replacements, our licensed electricians ensure reliable power access where and when you need it.

When to Replace or Install New Outlets?

Most property owners don’t think much about outlets—until they stop working or become dangerous. If your home is more than 15–20 years old, your outlets may not be up to current code or may lack modern features like grounding or GFCI protection.

Common signs it’s time for an upgrade:

• Loose plugs that fall out easily

• Warm or discolored outlet plates

• Outlets that spark or buzz

• Cracked faceplates or missing covers

• Two-prong outlets (no ground wire)

• No power or frequent breaker trips

• Lack of tamper-resistant (TR) outlets in child-accessible areas

Why You Need a Licensed Electrician?

Electrical outlet work might seem minor, but incorrect wiring can cause:

• Short circuits

• Arc faults

• Overloaded circuits

• Fire hazards

Our licensed electricians in Atlanta are trained to:

• Test your wiring and panel load

• Choose proper outlet types for each room

• Wire new outlets to NEC code

• Ensure grounding, surge protection, and GFCI coverage where needed

• Diagnose and fix outlet-related issues during troubleshooting

Our Outlet & Plug Services

We provide a full range of outlet and plug services—from installation to diagnosis and repair.

New Outlet Installation

Need more power access? We install new outlets where you need them most:

• Behind TVs and wall-mounted electronics

Outlet Replacement

See our GFCI Outlet Services in Atlanta post for more about moisture-zone compliance.

Safety First: ARC Fault and Tamper-Resistant Requirements

Modern homes and businesses must follow newer NEC codes requiring:

• AFCI (Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter) protection in bedrooms and living areas

• Tamper-resistant (TR) outlets in all residential spaces accessible to children

If your outlets don’t meet these standards, we’ll inspect and upgrade them for safety and code compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Can I replace an outlet myself?

   Legally, yes—but it’s not recommended unless you're experienced with electrical systems. Incorrectly wired outlets may still function, but can pose fire risks or fail under load.

   
   

2. How many outlets can I install on one circuit?

   That depends on the amperage (typically 15A or 20A) and what you're powering. We calculate load based on NEC standards and your appliance usage to prevent overload.

   
   

3. How long does it take to install or replace an outlet?

   Most single outlet replacements take less than an hour. Installing a brand-new outlet (with wiring and box cutting) may take 1–2 hours depending on access and wall material.
