TAB Electric, LLC specializes in residential installation, troubleshooting, remodeling, and performing commercial electrical repairs and upgrades. Our electrical contractors rely on over 10 years of experience to diagnose and fix your electrical problem. We'll schedule your appointment as soon as you call. We prioritize emergency repair work to make sure our clients are safe and comfortable. When you call TAB Electric, you'll talk to an electrician or our skilled secretary.

"Tommy came by my house today for an issue I've been having with my breaker box and AC unit. His communication was great, as he called me to let me know he was finishing a job early so he could be by sooner than expected. He was able to replace the breaker, and checked the disconnect to diagnose that the fuses were loose and the disconnect needed to be tightened as well. The overall quality of his work was exceptional, because it was such a vague issue. We've had 3 different HVAC companies and a different electrician come by to see what the issue was, but all of them quoted us over a thousand dollars to look into it. Tommy came by and checked out everything from the connectivity and wiring, to the capacitor and wattage output, and was able to find the issue that multiple others could not. It's extremely obvious that he cares about his clients and goes above and beyond to get to the root issue. Cannot recommend TAB electric enough and Tommy is definitely one of a kind!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

You can determine what size generator you need by listing the various appliances it will power during an outage. Write down the start-up watt usage, and then add them all together. 

A 7,500-watt generator will run your refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits without a problem. However, you’ll need an extra 3,000 to 4,500 watts to run your water heater and another 5,000 to 25,000 watts to run your electric furnace. In these instances, a whole-home generator is your best bet for running your critical equipment.
