"The job got done and it gone done right! We contracted Elextron Electric to install a 61” chandelier in our dining room. They sent two technicians, Abi and Eliecer. They were early, courteous, experienced, knowledgeable and very professional. They worked well together and neatly got the job done. I will definitely call Elektron back."

"They diagnosed the problem we had with our generator just by the description given to them on the phone. We hire them on a regular basis now to do the generator maintenance. They have us on a yearly schedule and up to now we are satisfied with their work and believe me we have had other companies before and you cannot compare, very professional."

"I highly recommend Mr. Pescoran’s handyman services! He installed a new garage door motor for me and mounted 5 TVs throughout my home, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He was professional, reliable, efficient, and paid close attention to every detail. Everything was installed securely, neatly, and exactly the way I wanted it. It’s not easy finding someone you can trust to do multiple jobs and do them well, but he exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, dependable, and takes pride in their work, I would definitely recommend hiring him. I will absolutely be calling him again for future projects!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Natural gas generators are designed to run for extended periods of time, such as power outages during a natural disaster. Since there’s no limit to the supply of natural gas, they don’t need to stop for refills. However, generators do need maintenance, including pauses to check and add oil. Constantly running them will also cause a lot more wear and tear, leading to a shorter lifespan.

Yes, natural gas generators can work without electricity. Natural gas generators are a common type of backup or whole-house generator that operates when the electrical grid isn’t working. The trick is using a transfer switch (which usually needs to be installed with the generator) that safely switches the home electrical system from the power grid to generator power when needed.

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.
