"My home was destroyed by Sandy and needless to say had to be rewired including a new electrical panel. I also had a generator wiring done and all my lighting fixtures. He is very meticulous and clean. I highly recommend Ryan for any electrical needs."

"The electrician clearly explained what he was doing and why. He did not do anything additional until he had my approval. He also pointed out a rigged outlet fixture for a generator and identified it as dangerous and asked if he could remove it. We have more work to be done and we will have them back."

"John is a very professional electrician and is very knowledgeable about what he does. Him and his crew have many years of experience doing this kind of work and it really shows. I just had them install a new car charger for me and I couldn’t be any happier with the results!"

"I used Call Me Electric because they were highly reviewed on angie's list, and after using them their reviews are right on. they are amazing at what they do, and very prompt and professional. i had a light post installed outside, a light fixture installed at my front door and back door, electrical outlets repaired outside, light fixture installed in my office, and had my basement lights replaced with led lights. All the work was done just the way we wanted it. I want to think Ralph, John, Andrew, and Nick for being very professional and doing a great job. i highly recommend them for all your electric work and i will be using them in the future. thanks again."

Generator Install FAQs, answered by experts

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

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.

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.

As a safety measure, you should always turn off the main breaker while operating your generator’s backup breaker. In addition, you should also switch off all appliance breakers so you don't have a power surge when the main breaker turns back on. And finally, turning off the main breaker prevents back-feeding, which endangers utility workers with the risk of electrocution. Back-feeding could also destroy the electrical circuits of your neighbors if they use the same power network.

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