"After spending almost 13 thousand dollars 2 months ago for installation of cummins home generator-it would not shut off after a normal automatic test. I called the company and they said shut off the gas. This was April 12. The said it would be May before a tech co u l check it out. So what do you think- you pay 13 grand to prote c t you from power outages but when it is faulty you are at the mercy of what appears to be a lack of technicians and VERY poor service. Its April 29 and havent heard back from them. The say they will call back and dont. Recommend you stay away frpm thi compNy!"

My Electric Works is Columbus Ohio's premier electrical service repair provider. We are NOT a franchise and pride ourselves on being founded here in Columbus. Locally owned and family operated, My Electric Works is your one stop Electrical Service repair shop!

"Overall we had a negative experience with My Electric Works. It started in Nov of 2021 when they replaced our box, we thought everything was all set but when we went to have our furnace replaced by another company they mentioned we did not have permits for our electric box. We reviewed the invoice for th work done by My Electric works on the box and noticed we paid for permits but never received. So in April of 2022 we called back, they then came out to label box which also was never done and found wires that had not been grounded properly in Nov 2021 so fixed that as well. Finally after 5 months we got the permits we had paid for originally. Then we had an issue with our living room light switch while replacing the switch where it had stopped working. We decided to give them another chance and called to have them come out to look at it. On the phone call to set up the service visit there was no mention of a diagnostics fee or an increase to the diagnostics fee. Once the technician arrived, he told us that just for diagnostics it would be $250 charge which was over a 100% increase from the fee we had paid 5 months ago. As he was already at the house we agreed since we thought the issue would be resolved. When he told us he would not be able to fix the switch without tearing out the drywall on our entire living room ceiling (which we do not want to do) he left with nothing better then when he arrived. So we had paid $250 for nothing to be fixed. When I called to complain about this exorbitant fee and ask why we had not been made aware of it during the scheduling call and to understand why it had increased so much we were told sorry this is the way it is. Very unhappy with my experience and with their customer service."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.

Energy output depends on turbine size, average wind speed at your site, and system efficiency. A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

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.
