"JH had to replace our electric box including the necessary grounding under our home to the water pipe, ground arching to the water heater. JH got the county permit, coordinated with SMUD to turn off then on our electricity and get county inspector to pass the work, all expedited. He also kept our necessary appliances running with his generator. I couldn t be more pleased with work."

"Prompt Response, Professional Communication PM Electrical contacted me almost immediately after I submitted my request. Pedro provided a quote over the phone and followed up with a written estimate by email that same Friday afternoon. Timely Service He arrived Saturday morning as planned. Quality of Work Pedro clearly explained the scope of the job before starting. He then: *Installed a 240V, 50-amp breaker *Trenched and ran conduit *Weatherproofed the sub panel Customer Communication He also let me know that once we're ready to connect our spa and sauna, he'll return to complete that installation. The job site was left clean as when he arrived. Overall Experience Excellent customer service from start to finish."

"I had Proper Power Electric come out to replace some old switches and put in a new ceiling fan in my dining room. Foster was the electrician who did the work, and he did an awesome job. Super professional, knew what he was doing, and got everything done efficiently. Definitely would hire them again!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.
