Installing Dedicated Power Lines -- Need Advice


My general contractor is hiring a licensed electrician to install dedicated 20A lines for my audio system as part of a whole-apartment rewire and gut renovation.  While I'm sure the electrician is very capable, I'm also pretty sure he doesn't know anything about audio systems either.  Can any of you recommend a consultant or electrician who specializes in audio electrical I can hire to advise my electrician on how to best set up these lines?

Thanks!

I do not have a lot to add to this conversation but would like to make two comments:
1. i have been using PS power plants for years and they have always been able to take my system up quite a bit in SQ. I am using their P20 right now and consider it indispensable to my system. is there better out there? I have not tried any others so i l cannot make a blanket statement that it is the best.
2. please review the last few issues of Stereophile, and read the 2 articles by Michael Fremer about what happened to his sound when he had a whole house generator added so that he would have back up power in case of a power outage. This is something i had never considered but if i ever do get a whole house generator, i will have to have another panel installed. He wants to have them add another panel but for right now, PS Audio and their power plants saved his butt big time.
