"I would recommend Shield Electric for any residential/commercial jobs. You can not ask for an electrician with more integrity. Kaleb is willing to talk to you about the work; he will also answer questions about various options. Kaleb is knowledgeable and will do whatever is necessary to complete the job. He doesn't make excuses. He doesn't ever say, "I didn't factor that in..." when an onsite change occurs. He just gets the job done, and with integrity. Call him now!"

"He received the notice early on Saturday morning and called within an hour. He was at my house to get the estimate done an hour after that. We agreed to have the install done the following Friday to give him time to get the permits done. He and his son we exactly on time and the price was actually lower than I anticipated. A totally professional job. This guy is on my list for my next electrical job."

"I hired Shock & Awe Electric to do some electrical work at my home in Ocean Isle Beach, NC. They responded quickly to my Home Advisor App request and came out to give me a quote on my project the very next day. They installed a fan light on my dock, along with adding an on off switch; they installed on my house two ring flood lights and three motion sensor flood lights which required them to move existing electrical fixtures and relocate them and lastly they re-wired a outdoor shower light and added an on/off switch. They scheduled the work when it was convenient for me, showed up on time and did excellent work. The price of the project was very fair and they cleaned up well behind themselves. I will use them again and recommend them highly. Shawn and Rick are very professional and personable guys ."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

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.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.
