"This afternoon Trevor came to my house to repair an outlet. He was knowledgeable, and explained how he would proceed with the repair. He worked quickly and efficiently, and it should be noted he cleaned up upon completion. I would highly recommend Princeton Electrical in the future. Trevor was excellent."

"Nick Murray, one of the Murray brothers, replaced a circuit breakers panel in the basement and installed a full house generator with switch panel on my house. Nick did a great job! Very professional and courteous. I would definitely recommend this company for electric works."

"We had a top experience with Star Bright Electric and would highly recommend them. From start to finish, they were professional, polite, and easy to work with. They communicated clearly, showed up prepared, and took the time to clarify any questions before moving forward with the work. The job was completed efficiently and everything was done well. We appreciated that they were respectful of the home, careful with the details, and made sure the work was completed properly. It can be hard to find contractors who are both skilled and pleasant to work with, but Star Bright Electric checked all the boxes. Overall, we were very happy with the experience and plan to use them again for any future electrical work."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

Generators are safe to use as long as they are installed and operated correctly according to the manufacturer's recommendations. The most critical safety tips are to never use a portable or fuel-powered generator inside an enclosed space due to the risk of lethal carbon monoxide poisoning; always operate it outdoors where fumes can dissipate away from your home. Additionally, never attempt to connect a generator to your home’s electrical panel yourself—hire a professional to ensure the setup meets safety standards. Finally, avoid overloading the generator by not connecting more appliances than it is rated for, as this can damage your equipment or cause a fire.

In many cases, yes. There are models called dual-fuel generators and fuel switches, but only between certain types of fuel. For example, with the right setup you can convert a generator from natural gas to propane. Some allow switching between diesel and gasoline. There are even tri-fuel generators available in some cases, which adds a large layer of security if you are worried about fuel availability in times of crisis. Always check your generator capabilities and manual instructions before trying to switch fuels. Some generators can use another fuel but may need a fuel conversion kit to prep them first.

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.

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.
