"Mr. Orr quoted installing 30-amp generator inlet box for $1,000 and 50-amp for $1,300. I agreed on 50-amp one. He did not want to be paid by personal check, credit card, even bank cashiers check. He accepted only cash. I agreed. For permit, he said his hourly rate is $250 and two visits to town office would cost additional $500 for permit and stated I do not really need it. Considering he is in Angis list licensed, prescreened, I accepted the offer without permit. He installed the service. No receipts, no insurance information, and with my acceptance, no permit. He did not even try my new generator after installation to see if everything works fine. It was partly my mistake, though. I feel humiliated now. No one should work on panel without town permit. I had to call another electrician after the work. The cable from inlet to panel was 8-3, not 6-3 gauge for 50-amp inlet. I called Mr. Orr and requested a proper gauge cable or reimburse me $300 for the lower grade work. He did not want to come, saying it is a 45-minute distance. He agreed to send me $100 by his personal check, saying I would not have any problem with my generator's output (The Westinghouse WGen9500DFc Dual Fuel Portable Generator with CO Sensor produces up to 12,500 peak watts and 9,500 running watts), dividing 9500 watts by 240 volts. He said I do no;t even have 50-amp output anyway and I should not worry about it. Now, another electrical contractor who replaced the panel to 200 amp, replaced the 8 gauge to 6 gauge, as well."

"Jason and his team with Cotti-Johnson did an excellent job updating our electrical boxes, installing the washer/dryer hookup, and getting us setup with a generator! Sam, our assigned electrician, even took the time to go through the entire operation of the generator from A-Z. I would definitely recommend them for any electrical work!"

"Expensive but professional. The electrician that did the work was excellent and seemed.to enjoy explaining what he was doing and why it had to be done that way. I felt like I learned something while he installed ceiling lights. He also cleaned up after himself like he'd never been there."

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.

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

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.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.

If you’re wondering whether gas generators produce carbon monoxide, know that natural gas generators do not produce carbon monoxide if they are functioning properly, as natural gas burns cleanly. However, if the generator malfunctions and the gas does not burn completely, there is potential for carbon dioxide to be produced. To prevent malfunctions, it's crucial to perform regular maintenance, including running the generator weekly and scheduling professional inspections every 6 to 12 months. Also, be sure to test your carbon monoxide detectors regularly to ensure they function in the rare case of the generator producing carbon monoxide.
