Michael was friendly, efficient, and made sure everything was done right. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing electrical work and will use him again in the future."

"We purchased a fixerupper and tried to get the Breaker Panel replaced for 4 months to no avail. One contractor came but never gave us a bid. Another told us he was very busy and put us on his list. When the 45 yr old panel started to arch and lights blinked we called the fire dept and they encouraged us to find an electrician asap. We found a company that said they were available day and night. That proved not to be true. We were scheduled and rescheduled days out. We had contacted HomeAdvisor who put us in contact with True Fuse Electric. Brad Will examined our issue, rearranged his scheduled and got a new panel installed days before anyone else would even come. Mr. Will was helpful to explain everything to us. He was prompt and his work is neat and clean. We have confidence our electrical issue has been adequately repaired and at a very fair price. Knowing we were anxious about the situation he could have charged much more but his price was quite fair. We are very pleased and Glad to recommend True Fuse Electric. Thanks Home Advisor for connecting us."

"The electricians and plumbers were very professional in their demeanor. They worked as a team, everyone knew what to do and how to do it. They answered all my questions, but didn't let that distract them from their job. I was impressed with the speed of the installation. They cleaned up after themselves and took their trash with them."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

No, you should never plug a generator directly into a wall outlet in your house. This practice is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and can cause "back-feeding," where power from the generator flows back into utility lines, creating a life-threatening hazard for utility workers. It can also damage your home's electrical system, including appliances like pumps and HVAC fans. If the main power is restored while the generator is connected, it can destroy the generator and cause an electrical fire. To safely connect a generator, you must use a professionally installed transfer switch or an interlocking kit, which prevents back-feeding by disconnecting your home from the utility grid before the generator provides power.

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

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages $5,200, with a typical price range of $1,500 to $8,900. However, total costs can vary from $400 for a small portable unit to over $18,000 for a large-capacity system. The most significant cost factor is the generator's size and capacity, but other variables include the brand, fuel type, and labor for assembly and installation.

Generator costs can be broken down by type:

  • Portable or Emergency Backup Generators (1kW–7.5kW): $500 to $2,000

  • Partial-Home Generators (9kW–20kW): $2,000 to $6,500

  • Whole-House Generators (22kW–48kW): $5,000 to $18,000

To avoid paying for more power than you need, consider hiring an electrician to calculate the electrical load for your essential appliances. It is also recommended to get at least three quotes to find the best deal for your specific needs and budget.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.

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.
