"We had several jobs done, the largest was to upgrade our outside electrical panel for power from FPL and our service panel in the garage. We wanted xtra circuit breakers, whole house surge protection, new lighting and electrical outlets for our Patio and outside storage building. Additionally, the installation of a WHOLE HOUSE GENERATOR OUTLET (to run portable generator for whole house electric). Plus several repairs and upgrades to ceiling fans and light switches. I am VERY satisfied with all the work and the POFESSIONAL manner that all all personnel displayed during this huge job. I NEVER recommend a company that I have issues or doubts about their work. Blue Marlin Electric has earned my trust and is my now "go to" company for all electrical questions and/or issues. My thanks to Ron, Sam and everyone involved at Blue Marlin Electric."

"I was impressed with the response time. I submitted my request on a Saturday morning and 20 minutes later Steve called me. He was at my home about an hour later. He found and fixed the problem. Easy to fix hard to find. I will highly recommend him to anyone who wants a true pro to do work for them. I also have hired him to take care of my generator for service and repair work as needed in the future."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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.

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

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.
