Palmetto straddles a county line: most of the city is in Fulton County, and part of it extends into Coweta County. Shocking Electric Solutions, Inc. serves Palmetto on both sides of that line from our office at 1002 Highway 16 W, Suite A, in Newnan. Call (678) 552-9399, text (470) 516-7261, or book online.
City Electric, EMC or Georgia Power
Palmetto residents can have one of several electric providers. The City of Palmetto provides electric service to many customers through its utility billing department at City Hall, 509 Toombs Street. Coweta-Fayette EMC is headquartered in Palmetto on Collinsworth Road and serves many surrounding addresses, and Georgia Power serves others. Your bill tells you which one you have. We coordinate with the right utility whenever a job requires a disconnect, a new meter base or a service upgrade.
Palmetto Permits and Inspections
For addresses inside city limits, Palmetto’s Community Development department handles building permits, inspections and code enforcement. Electrical work typically requires rough-in and final inspections, plus an underground inspection when there is buried wiring, before any work is covered. Outside city limits, the county your property sits in, Fulton or Coweta, handles the permit. We take care of the paperwork and inspection scheduling.

Planning Ahead for Bigger Loads
Adding an EV charger, a hot tub or a shop often raises the question of whether the existing panel can carry the load. We do a load calculation before recommending anything. Sometimes the answer is a simple dedicated circuit. Sometimes it is a panel or service upgrade. Either way, you will know why before we start.

Do I need a permit to install an EV charger in Palmetto?
A new 240-volt circuit generally requires an electrical permit. Inside city limits that goes through Palmetto Community Development, and we file it as part of the job.
EV Chargers in Palmetto
Level 2 home charging usually needs a dedicated 240-volt circuit, the right breaker and wire size for the charger’s rating, and a location that works for your parking. We check panel capacity first. If there is room, installation is usually straightforward. If not, we explain options such as a load-management device or a panel upgrade.
When to Call Right Away
Some problems should not wait for a convenient day: a burning smell from an outlet or the panel, buzzing or crackling, a breaker that trips again immediately after reset, or any outlet that sparks. Turn off power to the affected circuit if you can do so safely, then call us.
