Pricelight Electric is an experienced contractor. Rewire and new construction specialists. We are licensed and insured in the city of Pittsburgh and in the state of Pennsylvania. Up front pricing with a proposal to review before deciding. No hidden extras. If there are added items to the project, it will be written on an additional proposal for review and approval.

"They upgraded or added lighting in the basement (recessed lighting), living room (recessed lighting), sunroom (replaced old flourescant with LED), backyard (motion sensor flood light), fixed 2 outdoor plugs. While they were at it they installed a bunch of smart switches that I bought on for all the above lights. They were very professional and cleaned up every day. I would recommend their services and I plan on calling them for more upgrades in the future. They also replaced a bathroom exhaust fan that hardly worked since contractors installed it when we renovated our bathroom a few years ago (different contractors)."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

You can determine what size generator you need by listing the various appliances it will power during an outage. Write down the start-up watt usage, and then add them all together. 

A 7,500-watt generator will run your refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits without a problem. However, you’ll need an extra 3,000 to 4,500 watts to run your water heater and another 5,000 to 25,000 watts to run your electric furnace. In these instances, a whole-home generator is your best bet for running your critical equipment.

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.

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 might seem counterintuitive, but installing a generator transfer switch will save you money in the long run. While you’ll have to pay between $400 and $2,500 to have the transfer switch installed, you’ll recoup that amount later on when you don’t have to pay for expensive repairs to your appliances, devices, and electrical system that may have burned out, overloaded, or stopped working due to a sudden loss of power or an incorrect hook up of a generator to your home

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.
