"I needed to swap out my old ventless oven hood with a new one plus I needed to upgrade a hall light fixture. Getting an appointment was easy and the team was great. The guys were so friendly and helpful, plus they were so efficient (in and out in 90mins) I would highly recommend their services and plan to tell my friends about them."

"This was to install a standby generator. The advance planning was excellent as was the quality of the work. Customer service is outstanding. Price was high, however. LaPlante was the highest of 3 bids received. Nevertheless, I selected them because of their professionalism and customer service."

"We were very happy with the work.Eric was easy to work with. He installed a new 220 circuit and was able to fish it though the walls harmlessly whereas other electricians we talk with were going to tear up the drywall. Pricing was very reasonable. Highly recommend."

"I hired Prime Sine Electric LLC for a complete new electrical service and wiring on our 1937 home when purchased. It was in need of a complete gut-job. Spence did an amazing job bringing it up to today's standards. I mean, totally amazing transformation. Spence was professional the entire time through the quote process, customer service and final completion. He listened to our needs and gave input and helped us with planning the electrical needs of this old house. We can't recommend Spence enough and would hire him again in an instant."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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. 

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.

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.

Most homeowners won't be able to claim a home generator as a tax write-off. However, a whole-house generator may be tax-deductible in certain situations depending on its purpose. For instance, if it's needed to power essential medical equipment, it may qualify as a medical expense deduction. Also, in some cases, businesses can deduct a generator as a business expense if it supports operations. Always consult a tax professional to determine eligibility based on your specific circumstances and the applicable IRS regulations.

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.
