"I would highly recommend Resolute Electric. Klaus contacted me very quickly after my initial request and came to the house to assess the work request. I had two rooms that required different ceiling light installations and Klaus provided me with several different options for each install. The work was scheduled promptly and completed with the upmost professionalism and care. Klaus explained the work being performed as he went through each project enabling us to get the exact install configuration (type of light/bulb, positioning, switch options etc.) we required. The work was done patiently, not rushed and we were consulted throughout the day. Pricing for the work was very reasonable and as quoted i.e. no surprises. The quality of Klaus's work was exceptional and I'm extremely happy with the installations. I will definitely use Resolute Electric again when I need another electrical project."

"Brian was awesome and fast and courteous. Princeton Electrical was easy to communicate and negotiate with, and offers a fair price for their labor. Had a Level 2 EV charger installed from my townhouse basement to my garage in a few hours without problems."

"We recently moved into our home and found that the heat tape around pipes in our crawl space were old and did not look safe. John came out to give us an estimate quick and gave us a good price. We went with him and he completed the job in just a few hours. He even told us the outlet it was plugged into looked bad and installed a new outlet for free. John is a reliable guy and a good worker. I have recommended him to family."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

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.

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
