"This was the first time I used Home Advisor to find a contractor. Home Advisor linked me with Mr. Electric who did an outstanding job. They were on time, on budget, courteous, professional, and totally a pleasure to work with. Thomas installed a 50 and 30 amp service for us at our property servicing two RV lots as well as installed a power pole with a meter box for the power company to tie into. Jan was a pleasure to work with as she was the voice for the company dealing from everything from scheduling to invoice as well as general questions. Jan was very pleaseant and professional. We will use Mr. Electric in the future and highly recommend their service..."

"I needed a port installed to plug in my portable generator, and properly shut off the utilities to house in case of power outages. I am SO GLAD this is done. We have a lot of storms in this area, and the peace of mind knowing, it is no big deal now - I have a back up system - is huge. And it was done so quickly!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more.
