"Tim is terrific, after speaking with him on the phone he made time to help me with my electrical issue the following morning. He is very polite, respectful, and professional. If I need additional assistance in the future, he will be my first choice."

"It was pretty rocky. At first. Several appoints made by Tri-State no one ever showed up.Crew showed up to install the Generator before the site survey and did not have necessary equipment or cooperation of Electric or gas company nor call before you dig had been notified. I called Tri-State to warn them the call before dig had never been preformed. They said they'd take care of it, did not happen until right before installation crew came back the second time. The first time they were here they could not have installed the generator even had they had all the parts because none of the utilities had been marked. Finally after about three months the Generac was installed and working. I had several questions that I could never get answered by calling Tri-State. One of the installation team had to come back a couple of weeks later to replace a damaged part and he answered all my questions. The guys who installed the Generac were great, the problem is your guys operation center and call center as far as I can see do not communicate very well. Anyway the generator has worked fine in several power outages this spring. I am happy right now but I live in dread something goes wrong and I have to call Tri-State for help."

"Juan was on time and very professional. Did an excellent job adding a sub panel for a generator and even correct a code violation that was found in the main box when he opened it up. The time estimate and price quot where both right on the money. He also did a great clean up job when the work was finished. Would recommend him to anyone needing some electrical work."

"Needed outside security lighting installed. Vendor was professional and arrived on time. Cost was perhaps a little on the high side but it was worth it to me. Would consider using this vendor again."

"Kaidyn quickly identified and resolved the problem with a GFI outlet. He completed the safety review which identified a potential problem that should have been detected during a home inspection. Based on findings and my additional requests, Noah joined him and they quickly and efficiently completed raising pendant lights, replaced other outlets to meet code, installed an additional ground rod and surge protector. They also exercised care while in my home. I highly recommend McCormick Electrical Services!"

"Dustin did a great job and worked during the different phases of electric installation from early in the process until completion. The amazing thing about Dustin is that he is so agreeable, always willing to listen to the question and then set about completing the task. It was a pleasant experience."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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. 

An undersized whole-house generator has the potential to overheat and shut down when you try to run a central AC system. This scenario can not only damage the whole-house generator, but can also trip your home’s breakers or cause electrical damage. To avoid this situation, hire a local generator installer to correctly size your whole-house generator.

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

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.

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.
