Dedicated Circuit Installation for Athens homes and businesses
Many homes around Athens were built before 1960 and still have parts of their original wiring, alongside newer circuits added over the years. For dedicated circuit installation in Calhoun County, our electricians take time to understand what is already there so that new work ties in safely.
Which appliances need a dedicated circuit
As a rule, any fixed appliance with a motor or heating element should have its own circuit. That includes refrigerators, freezers, microwaves, dishwashers, disposals, washers, dryers, furnaces, sump pumps, space heaters and window air conditioners. In older Athens homes several of these often share one 15 amp circuit, which leads to nuisance trips and overheated wiring. Separating them is straightforward when the panel has room.
