"I called 5 different electricians and no one would call me back. I'm assuming that is because my house is 124 years old. I was given their business card from an employee at Lowes in Warsaw. They came out and connected all three circuits that I had already installed into the circuit breaker box. They were very professional, efficient, and knowledgeable. They did a very good job and picked up all the trash. They offered to come back and do other electrical work for me. I strongly recommend this company that is willing to actually do work. They were extremely reasonable price wise. I was charged $150.00 to connect all three circuits to the circuit breaker box. Quite a Blessing!!"

"William was absolutely fantastic! He responded almost immediately when I requested an estimate for his services, and he arrived the following morning to discuss my project and provide an estimate. In addition to providing a fair and reasonable estimate, he also said he was available to begin work as soon as I would like him to do so. It was a time-sensitive job, and he got started right away. He completed the installation of a new breaker and wiring for an exterior outlet box on our back deck in less than a few hours! Everything looks great, and I will definitely be contacting Triple City Electric again for any electrical services going forward."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.

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.

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
