"We just had the generator installed today and are so pleased with the guys from PM Technologies from the electricians, helpers, and Ken the salesman. We couldn't have asked for nicer people to do our job."

"I have dealt with a lot of contractors. John from Elite Electrical actually shows up (and on time), is respectful, personable, and best of all he knows everything about his trade and did an AMAZING job inspecting and explaining. He was very clear about what needed to happen and pricing for all options. A simple generator outlet turned into a whole panel upgrade, but the original panel was hazardous and he showed me exactly why. He suggested and did not push extra. I would definitely refer and re-hire for more projects."

"The entire project was such a great experience. From the moment I first requested a quote online, Mike has been very responsive (within minutes) and so great to deal with. After talking to a few references provided to me, I decided to proceed with a whole house generator install and new power to my shed out back. They easily worked around my schedule since this is a vacation home. They installed everything in 1.5 days and arrived on time as promised. The entire team was such a pleasure to work with. They prided themselves in making sure they left the place as clean as possible. Don't be swayed by a lack of online reviews. Highly recommend you give them a shot!"

"We have a smoke alarm that is located 20 feet u from the floor. Several people declined to come out, including one that wanted $89 just to come and give us an estimate. The $89 did not apply toward the estimate if we accepted. Richard Riley, from Electrical Edge, had us text a picture and said he would be happy to do the job. He showed up on time and was very professional. We plan to use him on some other projects as well. Chris and Chuck Gibson Scotts, MI"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

These advanced generators use a key fob or a smartphone app to remotely start, which is ideal for getting power back on immediately without venturing outside. This feature is more common on whole home generators, but you may be able to find it on large portable generators, too.

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.

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.

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.
