"Our electrician, Jeff Uffer, repaired the sockets and the switch and went over the rest of the job with us. He scheduled a second visit to complete the installations because we had not ordered all of the correct detectors for the job."

"Fabio was honest, knowledgeable, and super communicative before, during, and after his service. We asked him to come give an assessment on whether or not we had the power to support an induction stove — he was attentive in reviewing our circuit box, its interior, the main circuit board, and evaluating the pros and cons of the project. Additionally, he repaired two light fixtures that hadn’t been working on the fly. It was so helpful and nice for him to do without notice. We will definitely call on Fabio for future electrical projects."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

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.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.
