"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."

"Tough outdoor location to install a Tesla EV charger, but he got it done with exceptional attention to detail. It looks great. Communication was excellent throughout the process. He proposed multiple installation options."

"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!"

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.

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.

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

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500 to $2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000 to $6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000 to $18,000

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.
