"I had a fantastic experience hiring Hughes Electrical to install my LED lighting fixtures in the living room and kitchen! They arrived on time, were very friendly and gave me a better price than the other two estimates I received. The electricians wore shoe covers, put down tarps and cleaned everything up. My new LED recessed lights were also installed on a dimmer. They did a wonderful job and I will be referring them to all my friends!"

"I had a power failure. Similar to a brownout. I am by no means any type of handyman. I started getting nervous so I started to call electricians. I called Wentzels went to voicemail. Call many many other electrician no luck everyone had a wait of almost a week. Another company told me to call the utility to see if it was a problem on their end. While I was on hold Justin called me from Wentzels. Told me he listened to my message and that he had someone the next town over almost done with a job. Said he could be there in 30 minutes. Andy come out. Very polite, very professional, and very knowledgeable. He was able to find the root cause within the first 5 minutes of coming out. Turns out it wasnâ t a utility problem. It was a failure in the line between the meter and the receptacle to the house. It took Andy some time but he was able to make a full repair on the spot. A+ 100% if Andy come to your project you are going to be in good hands. Highly recommend the service."

"I had a federal pacific panel replaced. The technician and work were professional. However, I explained to the technician that I lost power in a large section of wall. After the job was complete, I found I still didn’t have power in the wall. Now I’m being told it is a separate job and cost. An explanation before having the work done about it being a separate problem and needing additional work would have been very helpful. All I’m told now is they can come out for a service call which is $212 plus whatever the issue is. This was a miscommunication error on Mr. Electrics side. I informed the tech about the problem and there was no testing on the wall afterwards. Very disappointed."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

No, you shouldn’t use an extension cord to plug a generator directly into your home without using a transfer switch. That’s because systems like pumps and HVAC fans need a steady power source that might not be available directly from your generator alone. If you bypass the circuit breaker box, you risk damaging your electrical system, creating a risk of electrical fire or electrical shock to you or any workers repairing lines on your local electrical grid.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

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.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.
