"Anthony and his team do expert electrical work of all kinds. We are a 145 year old non-profit organization with buildings and grounds, and have contracted with Technician Engineers Group (TEG) on two large projects (and several small ones) over the last 15 years. One project rewired a large 125 year old building listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and one installed an extensive outdoor lighting system. In these two unusual situations TEG worked closely with us to find innovative solutions to our unique needs. We are very pleased with the results, enjoyed their can-do approach, and highly recommend this company for any electrical challenge. We found TEG reliable, honest, on time, and all the work was completed ahead of schedule."

"Callahan worked me in during a busy week before the 4th even though it was a cold call. I did not know him.. The electrician was exactly on time at 8AM and he wore a mask. He did a perfect job, and went out of his way to make the wire out of site as it was installed across my garage.. Even though it took a little longer than anticipated, he still charged me the quoted price.. I will definitely call him again for all my electrical work."

"It went great! Pete and Dave were fast, friendly, and professional. They did a great job installing the ceiling fans in my rooms. They made sure to protect my belongings so that nothing was damaged during the installation. And the quote they gave me was spot on. Their prices are affordable. For what they charged to install 3 fans, another company wanted to charge me just to install 1 fan. I absolutely would highly recommend contacting Supreme. I will be definitely contact them for additional work I need to have done!"

"Pete Definbaugh and his team installed the Generac 20 KW Generator and it passed the Harford County Inspection with flying colors. Pete organized everything to include with the plumber and county inspectors as well as BGE for the gas hook up and BGE's final hookup. The generator has a great transfer switch that kick right over and he installed TWO new grounds for the setup. He paid attention to all the details and that included making sure we had Harford County Approvals and PASSED inspection results. The workmanship of the installation was high quality all the way and it worked right during the test without a hitch."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

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.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.
