I need to install a transfer switch kit

Does anyone have any recommendations for electricians? I live in the Phoenix area, and am willing to use a handyman if s/he is qualified. No big hurry. Thanks.

I’m not from your area. But the hall has many great electricians. They could point out a proper electrical contractor or even have a few in the hall who do side jobs.
