"Mr. Electric's technician arrived right on schedule to install an outdoor receptacle. He quickly got to work, installed the outlet, checked it and showed me the work. He left the area tidy and neat. I was so pleased with the work that I had him replace an outdoor light with a motion detector. Without a doubt, I would call Mr. Electric again. The price was fair and the work performed was excellent.

"It was my first time hiring this company to work on my air conditioning unit, and I have to say that they did a fantastic job. They re-install a new electrical system and air conditioning unit and the job was well done. They arrived on time, they were professional, knowledgeable about their area of expertise, and they clean up and remove all old appliances. I definitely recommend this company to anyone and everyone. They all did a great job."

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.

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two. 

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.
