Professional Automated & Smart Lighting Upgrades in Atlanta, GA

When your commercial property needs automated or smart lighting upgrades, Atlanta’s Pat Murphy Electric delivers expert service backed by 40+ years of local electrical experience. Our licensed technicians provide reliable, code-compliant smart lighting installation.

Why Commercial Properties Need Lighting Upgrades

Atlanta's commercial landscape spans everything from high-rise office towers to sprawling industrial campuses, and older buildings in nearly every district are running lighting systems that were designed for a fraction of today's operational demands. Fluorescent and incandescent infrastructure installed decades ago cannot support modern occupancy sensors, daylight harvesting controls, or building automation integrations without a proper upgrade.

Growing businesses face the same pressure. As facilities expand, existing lighting circuits become overloaded, energy costs climb, and tenant expectations for responsive, programmable environments outpace what legacy systems can deliver.

Signs You May Need Smart Lighting Installation

Contact Pat Murphy Electric right away if your commercial property shows any of the following:

• Lighting systems with no occupancy or vacancy sensing
• Manual switches controlling large zones with no dimming capability
• Fluorescent or HID fixtures not compatible with smart controls
• High monthly energy bills tied to lighting loads
• Inconsistent light levels causing tenant or employee complaints
• No integration between lighting and your HVAC or building management system
• Facilities undergoing renovation, expansion, or tenant improvement work
• Lighting infrastructure more than 20 years old with no control upgrades
• Plans for LED conversion requiring a new control strategy

Our services include high-bay LED conversions with motion-activated controls, aisle-by-aisle occupancy zoning, daylight sensor integration through skylights, emergency egress lighting systems, and preventative maintenance programs for industrial lighting infrastructure.

Our Professional Installation Process

We begin with a comprehensive audit of your existing lighting system, measuring fixture counts, circuit loads, and control points across your facility. This assessment determines the right control architecture and identifies any electrical infrastructure work needed to meet Georgia electrical codes.

We manage all permit applications and coordinate with facility managers and building engineers throughout the project. Our licensed technicians complete installations in phased schedules designed around your operations, typically completing individual zones or floors before moving to the next. We remove outdated fixtures and controls, install new LED drivers and smart switching devices, wire all sensors and control modules, label every circuit clearly, establish network or low-voltage communication connections, restore power zone by zone, and test every control function under real operating conditions.

After a smart lighting upgrade for your Atlanta property, we commission each zone, verify occupancy and daylight sensor calibration, and confirm integration with any connected building systems before scheduling the final inspection.
