"William was prompt, set expectations and followed through and educated us on the need for a Surge Protector. He came for a quote but was able to install the EV charger quickly and cleanly same day. He is very knowledgeable about the EV market and was in and out quickly. Great experience all around. Highly recommend!!"

"The man is truly amazing. His work is outstanding. He installed a whole house Generac generator for me and has since become an authorized Generac dealer and serviceman. I had 4 different company's give me estimates and he blew them away with a great price and fast service. Big company's put me on their waiting list. Some were up to 10 weeks out. He completed the job in 3 weeks. His work is clean and neat. One of his best attributes is that he is HONEST and does all the work himself with the aid of a helper, so you know that the job is done right. He is fully licensed and insured. I feel like I have an electrician I can truly trust."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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

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.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.
