"We had Kingdom Electric install a bathroom fan. It's a Panasonic whisper Quiet with led light. Nelson the installer cut the ceiling and installed the fan so clean that no touchup paint was needed. After the install and wiring, he cleaned up everything. Very professional. I added having a timer switch installation which I called Kingdoms office regarding the extra cost. The office was professional and polite and discounted the fee to install the switch. I would use Kingdom again and recommend them to others needing an electrician."

"These guys are great - had a couple of issues and they immediately helped without question; including come to change a manufacturer's defect long after the job was completed at no additional charge. I will be hiring them for any future electrical projects and recommend you do the same!"

"Revolution Electric updated and reworked all our electric for our 100 year old home remodel. We still had knob and tubes under our plaster walls. They modernized all of our electric from timed lighting indoors and out, full WiFi and boosters, generator installation and even buried our electric lines outside. They are professional, timely, courteous and so easy to work with. They stayed on budget, patiently helped me find cost effective solutions and fully trained me on how to manage all of the systems we installed. I fully would recommend them and rate them a 10 out of 10."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

Costs depend on generator type, labor, and additional wiring or transfer switch requirements.

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.

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.

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.
