I recently hired Miguel and his team at Great Power Solutions to install electrical wiring and power in my workshop, and I couldn?t be more impressed with their work! From start to finish, Miguel was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly efficient. He took the time to understand my specific needs, offered valuable suggestions, and ensured everything was up to code and safe. The installation was flawless, with clean wiring, sturdy outlets, and a reliable power setup that?s perfect for my tools and equipment. His attention to detail and commitment to quality really stood out. Miguel was also a pleasure to work with?punctual, communicative, and respectful of my space.

"These guys were AWESOME. I received 4 quotes Cape Fear came in the lowest with exactly what I wanted, Shane was the salesmen we talked more about the days events then the actual project. When he left he felt like an old friend. He Emailed me my quote and came in $2000,00 less then the other guys with a Trane high efficiency (96% 2 stage furnace and new A/C Unit) the other quotes I got was for a single stage 80% plus ac for more money. The Installer Joe and his crew were great. he took time to answer my questions and ran a new return line from the floor and put it in the ceiling, I definitely got my moneys worth. DO NOT HESITATE TO HIRE THEM!!!!!"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You may need a permit for a portable generator if you’ll be installing a transfer switch for your primary residence or similar work. Otherwise, a permit for other uses may not be necessary. Check your local building codes or ask a local generator installer for more information about your local regulations.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window. 

The average cost to install a home generator is $5,200, but total costs can range from $500 to $18,000 or more. The final price depends on several factors, including the generator's size, type, brand, fuel source, and the cost of labor and assembly. The generator's size is the most significant cost factor, as units that can power larger homes with higher energy demands cost more.

Cost breakdowns by generator type are typically as follows:

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

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

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

To ensure you get the right size unit for your needs without overpaying, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes from qualified installers to find the best fit for your budget.

A 1,500 square foot home will likely need a 15kW to 20kW generator. When deciding on whole-house generator size, add up the total wattage of the devices that you’d like to continue running during a power outage. That way, you can ensure you purchase a generator that can power your necessary appliances or medical equipment during an electrical emergency.

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.
