"Started out roughly as owner got lost ending up arriving an hour after appointment time. Asked to have one fire alarm on a very high ceiling moved down to a more manageable height for future access. He did this in the wrong room, so had to do this in a second room. Thankfully he did not charge me for that error, only charging for the correct room. He did repair the walls that were cut open to move the alarm units but still need repainting. Previous alarm installation was done incorrectly, I was not aware. Owner installed two fire alarms that blew out when installed before the incorrect wiring was identified. I was disappointed that a professional electrician would not have identified the incorrect wiring before the new units were damaged. As no additional alarms were available at this time he reinstalled the original alarms that were both chirpping when he left. I later had to purchase additional units and install myself. The new plug outlet was installed satisfactorily, but later found out that the front of the electrical panel was removed and not replaced before he left. Two ceiling lights were replaced satisfactorily. However, he complained that one had snap on plastic crystals that needed to be attached to the ceiling unit as he considered that to be a "specialty" fixture installation, with additional charges. To avoid further charges I volunteered to attach the crystals myself. All this cost me $850, while I was left with purchase and installation of two fire alarms, attachment of the electrical panel front, and delaying the installation of a replacement exterior garage light to a later date. Would not hire again, and felt overcharged."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

You can determine what size generator you need for a transfer switch by matching the switch to the largest outlet on your generator. Larger generators can power up to 10 circuits, while most 5,000-watt generators can provide power to six circuits. So, if your generator’s largest outlet is 30 amps, you’ll need a 30-amp transfer switch.

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.
