"Jared was amazing with communication and the attention to detail with the installation of the electrical panel was beyond expectation. He gave us exactly what we asked for and more. I would hire him again for any future electrical projects we might have. His team was also highly skilled and talked us through everything they were doing."

"RJC is the only electricians that we use as he has done multiple jobs at our home and business with safety first, quality work ! Weâ ve called them in emergency conditions gave us instructions for our safety and arrived within an hour. Weâ ve had major problems with massive floods X 4 in our 18 yrs of current home, all utilities are in basement so extensive electrical work furnace, panel, well pump, bladder, hot water tank, new wiring etc.. Installed new wiring for appliances, lighting, pool and many updates including 2nd panel. I lost a 2 mobile homes to fire and deemed to be electrical so I was very fearful ! I have not been since RJC has been a blessing as he physically shows and fully explains the importance of whatâ s needed and why and what the plan is. We have complete trust and confidence as RJC Electric that we and our home /property is safe ! Heâ s the best all around for 18+ years for us."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

It might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home. 

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.
