"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."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost to install a whole-house generator averages at $5,200, but costs can range from $1,500 to $8,900, depending on the type and size of the generator, and the labor required to install it. To find the best deal while still ensuring the unit meets all the needs of your household, hire an electrician to calculate the electrical load of your must-have appliances and electronics beforehand so you don’t pay for more power than you need. As always, be sure to get at least three quotes to find the ideal fit for your needs and budget.

While natural gas generators are costly, they’re a great option for standby power due to the reliability of natural gas as a fuel source. Unlike other fuels, natural gas is delivered through underground pipes, making outages extremely rare and less likely to be affected by the elements. As long as the area isn’t prone to earthquakes, they offer an unlimited supply of natural gas that doesn’t degrade over time or require storage in tanks.

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.

Whole-house generators can last 20 to 40 years with normal operation and proper maintenance. If you look up the specifications for your generator, you may be able to find a lifespan rated in hours of operation. Life expectancy will vary depending on how often and for how long you use the generator each year. Choosing a fuel with low impact like natural gas or diesel can help generators last as long as possible.
