"Jordan Blake from Exceptional Electric rocks! His communication prior to coming out was very thorough, and he was able to schedule us in two days. While he was onsite he found multiple items from years of DIY wiring, one major one. He clearly communicated al recommended changes to better match current code. As to the major item, he discovered the transformer was causing over-voltage delivery into our main! He had me call United Electric, and the linemen were out even before Jordan left – kudos to U.E. Cooperative – and replaced the transformer on the pole. All this for what started out as just putting a new 30A circuit in for a mini-split! Our mini-split is not yet on site, so we look forward to having Jordan back to the farm to complete the electrical plus a couple of the found issues next week. He is so knowledgeable. I highly recommend him. His sense of humor is also a delight, and my husband enjoyed learning and discussing many things with him. His prices are excellent."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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. 

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.

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.

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

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.
