Electrical Troubleshooting in Atlanta, GA

Atlanta electrician diagnosing power issues in a residential electrical panel
We troubleshoot flickering lights, tripping breakers, and hidden wiring issues using advanced tools and licensed expertise—restoring safe, steady power to homes and small businesses across Atlanta.

When your lights flicker, outlets stop working, or breakers keep tripping, you need expert electrical troubleshooting to find the root cause—fast. Atlanta Master Electricians provides licensed diagnostic services across metro Atlanta to pinpoint and fix even the trickiest electrical issues. We handle everything from minor malfunctions to complex system failures, delivering safe and reliable solutions for your home or business.


Electrical problems aren’t always obvious. What looks like a bad outlet could actually be a faulty wire behind the wall, an overloaded panel, or even a hidden short. That’s why professional troubleshooting is so important—it gets to the source of the issue rather than just masking symptoms.


Our licensed electricians come prepared with advanced tools, deep experience, and a methodical approach to testing your entire system. We’ve solved thousands of issues in homes from Roswell to East Point—quickly, cleanly, and always to code. If you’re frustrated by persistent electrical problems, we’re the team to call.

When to Schedule Troubleshooting with a Licensed Electrician?


1. You’ve Tried Resetting Breakers or Outlets and Still Have Issues

If breakers keep tripping or GFCI outlets won’t reset, it’s time to have the system professionally evaluated.

2. The Same Problem Keeps Coming Back

Recurring outages, buzzing lights, or repeated fuse failures usually indicate an underlying wiring issue that needs expert attention.

3. You Notice Burning Smells or Warm Spots

Call immediately—burning smells or warm breakers are signs of dangerous overheating, potentially leading to fire.

4. Electrical Issues Started After a Storm or Renovation

Water damage, lightning strikes, and unpermitted construction can all introduce new electrical hazards.

5. You’re Buying or Selling a Home

Troubleshooting and repairs can avoid delays in inspection, closing, or insurance approval.

Our Electrical Troubleshooting Process


  1. Initial Assessment

    We listen to your concerns, review visible symptoms, and gather system history.

  2. System Testing

    We use voltage meters, continuity testers, and infrared thermometers to test outlets, breakers, circuits, and panel components.

  3. Load Evaluation

    If needed, we perform a load check to determine if the system is being overdrawn or improperly balanced.

  4. Component Isolation

    We isolate each circuit and identify where power is dropping, connections are loose, or components are failing.

  5. Clear Report & Estimate

    You’ll receive a clear explanation of the issue, repair options, and honest pricing—no guesswork or upsells.
