"I recently hired Andrea from CCC Electric to help with some wiring upgrades in my home, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, their professionalism and expertise were exceptional. Andrea arrived right on time and immediately impressed me with their friendly demeanor and clear communication. They took the time to thoroughly assess the project and provided me with a detailed explanation of the work that needed to be done. Throughout the job, Andrea demonstrated an impressive attention to detail, ensuring that every wire was neatly organized and properly installed. They also went above and beyond to address any potential safety concerns, giving me peace of mind knowing that my home was in good hands. Not only did she complete the job within the agreed timeframe, but they also stayed within my budget without sacrificing quality. Their commitment to providing excellent service while respecting my financial constraints was truly commendable. Overall, I highly recommend CCC Electric to anyone in need of electrical services. Their professionalism, expertise, and dedication to customer satisfaction make them stand out as one of the best electricians I've ever worked with. I will definitely be calling them again for any future electrical needs."

"I had a power outage in the back of my house that has two refrigerators. I called to electrical contractors in Warren. The first one I left a voice mail then called the emergency number and left a message there. After about an hour I didn't hear from him so I called the next number I had and left a message he called back a little while later told him what I had and he tried to blow it off to the electric company. I had tried to see what the problem was myself when I got to the point I didn't know what was wrong. I went to Angie's List then Home Advisor. Fifteen minutes later I get a call from Good's. I told her what I had and we scheduled the appointment. The tech called me on the morning of the appointment and said he was on his way. When he arrived I told what I had and what I did. He looked at my panel and said it was an old one which I knew because its the same panel that's been there since I was a kid. He said he could get me going again and he'd give a couple of options on what I could do. He told me that I was going to have to replace that old panel because if I decided to sell the house I'd have to bring it up to code. I had a choice of replacing everything from the top of the house to the panel in the basement which included putting the wiring in conduit or not. I chose to have the wiring in conduit replacing the meter box and the breaker panel box. We scheduled the appointment and that morning he called to tell me he was on the way. When he got there he and his partner went right to work taking out the old wiring the meter box and old panel out. They replaced everything including putting conduit up for the wiring and a new 100 amp panel. I have to tell you that the only way you know they have been here is because of the new equipment they installed because they cleaned up all the old equipment and hauled it away. I am very appreciative of the customer service and professionalism I was shown by the techs. I will be using them from now on and recommend them to anyone who needs electrical heating or AC work. I can't say enough good things about them."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

Here’s what you can run with different wattages and types of generators:

Portable generator:

  • 2,000 watts can handle a large appliance like a freezer or refrigerator, plus a few smaller items like phones or computer chargers. 

  • 4,000 watts will keep two large appliances operating and a few smaller devices.

  • 8,000 watts should power most essential appliances and other devices, including a sump pump, well pump, or your dishwasher.

Partial to whole-house generator:

  • 20,000 watts and above will make it seem like your home’s power is still on.

While the rating will tell you how many watts the refrigerator needs at the peak of its cycle, it requires additional wattage to start. At the bare minimum, you’ll need a 1,500-watt generator to get the fridge up and running after a blackout. A 2,000-watt generator should be sufficient for most home refrigerators.

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.
