Industrial Repair Vs. Residential Repair

Welcome to Pat Murphy Electric, the trusted name for both residential and industrial electrical repair in Atlanta. Whether you are a homeowner, a business owner, or both, you can count on our team to take great care of you. While many electricians in the area focus on just residential or commercial work, we’re one of the few that has extensive experience in both fields. It’s important to remember that these specialties are quite different and require their own unique skill sets and certifications.

Although industrial and residential technicians both repair electrical elements in buildings, the work itself is very different. Industrial technicians have a lot more space and more complex electrical systems they are working with, which means they have different tools and equipment to repair these elements when they break down. Industrial technicians also have to keep in mind that in a business, electrical systems are running all day for 8+ hours a day, therefore the industrial electrical repair work at your Atlanta business will be done differently than in a home.

When the power goes out or electrical wiring is faulty, you’ll experience a range of hazards depending on the environment. Likewise, the approach to performing electrical repairs is unique, but only a trained electrician knows the best course of action. For residential properties, most electrical panels and wiring arrangements are the same, and outages tend to affect similar appliances in the home, such as the lights, HVAC systems, WiFi routers, refrigerators, and “smart” home appliances. 

However, in a commercial or industrial setting, electrical systems are often customized and include specialized parts with higher voltages than seen in residential properties. Commercial electrical issues can have massive consequences for machinery, temperature and humidity control, and automated PLCs, and these can shut down business operations. Thankfully, our team of Atlanta based commercial and residential electricians can handle both home and industrial electrical repairs. We’re also qualified for new installation, maintenance, and system upgrades.
