Looks like you're supposed to hold a license from the state of Georgia. I went to the city of Atlanta's website and was directed here: http://www.municode.com/resources/gateway.asp?pid=10376&sid=10 I searched "Atlanta electrical" and found their code. Here it is: 103.4. MANDATORY LICENSE REQUIREMENTS. (a) Only partnerships or corporations engaged in the business of electrical contracting, installation or repairing shall be entitled to a permit under this Code for such business activities where there is regularly connected with such partnership or corporation a person or persons, actually engaged in the business of electrical contracting, installation or repairing, who holds a valid Electrical or Low-Voltage Contractor's License issued by the State of Georgia Construction Industry Licensing Board. (b) Only a person engaged in the business of electrical contracting, installation or repairing shall be entitled to receive a permit under this Code for such business activities where such person holds a valid Electrical or Low-Voltage Contractor's License issued by the State of Georgia Construction Industry Licensing Board. (c) All work requiring a permit under this Code shall be performed by an individual, firm, or corporation holding a valid business license in the City of Atlanta. (d) It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation who is not an Electrical contractor duly licensed by the State of Georgia to display a sign stating or implying that he or they are carrying on the business of this Code or fails to comply therewith or with any of the requirements thereof, shall be deemed guilty of an offense and upon conviction thereof, in the City of Atlanta Municipal Court, shall be assessed a fine of not less than $50.00 nor more than $1,000.00 and/or sentenced to no more than 60 days in the City Stockade. Where any offense continues from day to day, each day's continuance thereof shall be deemed a separate offense.

There may be an exemption in some states, it allows an owner to work on their own property without a license. You are prohibited from doing the work for money without the proper license. Sometimes you can "help" a neighbor do the work, if your union does not have a rule against it.

It varies from State to State. If it's for family, and you're not getting paid, you're OK most places. Some States now bar DIY electrical work. Best to ask the local inspector.

You may be able to pay a small fee and work under a locally licensed company if Atlanta doesn't permit DIY electrical. That is assuming you are still certified to work in Ohio even though you currently do not.

If he is licensed in Georgia it doesnt matter where he is from.
