"Brian was awesome and fast and courteous. Princeton Electrical was easy to communicate and negotiate with, and offers a fair price for their labor. Had a Level 2 EV charger installed from my townhouse basement to my garage in a few hours without problems."

"I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Drilon and Barry from B&D Electrical Construction because of their excellent service, knowledge, honesty, professionalism and kindness. My home was without power, due to damage in the exterior wire and rust in the wire pipe. Drilon and Barry provided high-quality service to install new exterior wire and durable PVC pipe during almost freezing conditions today! I am extremely grateful because Drilon and Barry realized the urgency of my situation and decided to postpone work on a current project, in order to restore electricity to my home for a Happy New Year. Indeed, I will be having a Happy New Year because I will have electricity and heat in my home! Drilon and Barry expertly diagnosed the problem with my electricity and provided me with an organized work plan and a reasonable estimate of the costs. On the day of our appointment, Drilon and Barry took time to drive to a 2nd store because the 1st store did not have all of the necessary supplies for the project involving my home. Drilon and Barry also went beyond their scope of work and were kind enough to plug the minor holes created by the screws from the previous exterior wire pipe, as well as address the potential hazard of a live interior electrical wire with exposed and frayed copper filaments. I admit that I was very curious about electricity and electrical work. So, I asked a plethora of questions. I genuinely appreciate the patience exhibited by Drilon and Barry to answer my questions about the details of the electrical repair, as well as my questions about voltage, amperage, grounding, 110 volt vs. 220 volt service panels, dedicated service lines and insulation of exterior wires. I was very impressed by Drilon and Barry. As such, I have made arrangements with Drilon and Barry to undertake a 2nd project in the beginning of 2017 to update the interior electrical wiring and install a dedicated service line in my home. Also, I plan to refer Drilon and Barry to my colleagues- GREAT JOB! Sincerely, Wil Lo, MD"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

The amount of time a standby generator can run continuously is around 3,000 hours on average. However, standby generators can generally run indefinitely as long as they have a continuous fuel supply. Generators hooked up to a home’s natural gas supply are the best option for extended usage, as these won’t rely on a finite fuel supply based on how much you have in storage. Generators running on liquid propane or diesel won’t last as long, as these require fuel storage and regular refueling to stay running.

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.

It’s usually better to repair your generator if it isn’t working properly, as it will typically be much more affordable and should yield similar results. Generator repairs cost around $300 on average, while installing a new whole-house generator costs around $5,000 on average. The only exception is if you know your generator is reaching the end of its useful life, usually between 30 and 40 years. If you have an older generator, you could face multiple repairs in the coming years, which might mean that a full replacement will be more cost-effective over time.

Generators are usually sized by running watts and starting watts. Ideally, you’ll want a generator that can offer both the necessary running watts and starting watts for everything you need to power without going beyond 90% of its capacity. Calculate your home’s electrical load based on the breakers in your home or adding up the appliance and lighting needs of connected rooms.

To determine the right size generator for your house, you should calculate the total wattage of the appliances and devices you want to power during an outage. List all essential items, note their start-up wattages, and add them together.

Here are some typical wattage requirements for common appliances:

  • Refrigerator: 600 watts

  • Large dehumidifier: 700 watts

  • Large window air conditioner: 1,400 watts

  • Water heater: 3,000 to 4,500 watts

  • Electric furnace: 5,000 to 25,000 watts

A 7,500-watt generator might be sufficient for essentials like a refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits. However, for high-demand items like a water heater or furnace, a whole-home generator is a better choice. A portable generator may be enough if you only need to power a few critical items.

While home square footage can offer a rough estimate, it is not always a reliable indicator. For reference, here are some typical generator sizes based on square footage:

  • 1,000 sq ft: 6–9 kW

  • 1,500 sq ft: 7–10 kW

  • 2,000 sq ft: 10–14 kW

  • 2,500 sq ft: 12–16 kW

  • 3,000 sq ft: 16–20 kW+

For the most accurate sizing, consult a professional who can calculate your home's peak and average power consumption and recommend the optimal generator.
