Southwest Georgia · county seat Cuthbert
Cuthbert anchors Randolph County, with Andrew College, an 1886 courthouse and streets of 1800s houses. Beyond town the county stretches across more than 400 square miles of farms and pine, so solar systems are far apart and the nearest service company can be a long drive away.

On the ground in Randolph County
In Cuthbert and Shellman, city hall is the first stop for permit questions; everywhere else it is the county. Diverse Power keeps a district office in Cuthbert, and Sumter EMC serves other parts of the county, so rural owners should confirm which one holds the interconnection agreement before work starts. Around the courthouse square and near Andrew College, the ninth-oldest college in Georgia, houses are older frame and brick with steep roofs and big oaks, where shade and decking both need checking. Older farmhouses often have 5V metal nailed to wood purlins, where every new mount has to find solid wood. East of US 27, the land drains to Ichawaynochaway Creek and opens into fields with few trees to slow a storm.
In Shellman and Coleman, owners of systems sold door to door often find the seller has vanished and the nearest technician may be in Albany or Columbus. Along Cuthbert's older streets, shade from oaks that were already big when the panels went up is the usual reason output keeps falling year after year.

Georgia treats the wiring side of solar as electrical contracting, so taking an array off, fixing it or putting it back belongs with a contractor licensed by the Division of Electrical Contractors of the State Construction Industry Licensing Board. There is no separate solar license, and cities and counties can add their own permit and business license rules.
Homes in Randolph County are generally served by Diverse Power, with its Pataula District office in Cuthbert, and Sumter EMC. When an array goes back on after a roof job the utility usually needs to know, and the building department normally inspects the reinstall before the system is switched back on.
Usually. The installer's own workmanship warranty is gone, but the panels, inverter and optimizers carry manufacturer warranties that normally still apply, and a dead system is often one failed part rather than a worn-out array.
