"If your job requires permit do NOT allow Benj Electric to work on the project before he gets the permit approved. I needed a panel for a mini-split, contacted Benji thru Angi's list. He charged $742 and came to my home to work on the panel. When I asked him about the permit, he said that he would request the permit afterwards, that it wasn't a problem (actually, it's illegal and the city can fine the contractor as well the home owner - I I've learned it the hard way). He then requested the permit, which was declined by the city for an issue was caused by another contractor. The problem was fixed and I contacted Benji asking him to reapply for it, I even offered him to pay any fees incurred. He kept pushing me around for a couple months, only excuses, "I'm busy", "Do it tonight", and so on, then he stopped communicating. Now I'm with an illegal electric panel. How to correct the mess he did? I may have to start from scratch, but this time hiring a reliable professional."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

If you have a transfer switch properly installed, the generator and main electrical power cannot feed the system at the same time. However, you should still shut off the power at your main circuit breaker panel before activating the generator. If you do that, you’ll simply need to shut off the generator and reset your circuit breaker once the local power comes back on.

No, you cannot plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your home. Plugging in a generator without an interlocking kit, extension cord, or wall outlet receptacle is incredibly dangerous and can cause back-feeding—power from the generator back-feeds into utility lines. Also, if the main power comes back on while your generator is on, it could damage the generator and cause a house fire.

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.
