"In Phaze Electric did a phenomenal job at our house. It was a pleasant experience from sales with Keylin, Jessica with Permitting, Chris and Tony in the Backoffice, and the electricians that came onsite Joe Brancaccio and John Sarden. Our job was to replace a 200 AMP panel, meter base, and install a generator interlock. Each person took great care and was nice to work with. Joe specifically has a great way with people and will go out of his way to make sure things are done right! We can sleep soundly knowing that we were taken care of by In Phaze and that their work will last for years to come."

"Excellent, it was a very large home project involving burying electrical powerlines and putting up power boxes to run pool accessories and a generator. Dwight did an excellent job. He was always on time. His prices were very fair and he cleaned up after he left. I would highly recommend him. We are very satisfied with the quality of work provided ."

"Benjamin came out quickly to provide a quote for me in having a bathroom exhaust fan installed. He explained my options well. He had a better price than other companies quoted. I can highly recommend Benjamin for electrical service. He is very prompt, friendly, answers any questions, and does a quality job. I'll be sure to use him for some other projects I have coming up."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

With proper maintenance, a whole-house generator can last between 20 and 40 years. The specific lifespan depends on how often and for how long the generator is used, and some models may have their life expectancy rated in hours of operation. To maximize its lifespan, expect to spend around $150 to $300 per year for annual maintenance checks from a qualified technician. During these checks, a technician will inspect the engine filter, starting mechanism, fuel, lubrication, and coolant levels. Consulting your installer and choosing a low-impact fuel like natural gas or diesel can also help ensure your generator lasts as long as possible.

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

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.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.
