"I needed a generator transfer switch installed before the storm. Mark with A+ Electric came out within the hour and gave me a very reasonable quote. He wired my house for a generator the following day!! Thoroughly impressed!! He was very nice and ensured I knew how to operate everything in case of an outage. His work was very neat and professional. I will definitely use him again."

"Carlton and Tony were extremely professional and knowledgeable. They diagnosed the problem immediately and found where the electrical problem occurred, and why it occurred. They fixed the electrical issue immediately and recommended new GFCIs be installed. They were both great and very friendly, explaining why the outlets were wired in the circuit in the layout of the area in the house. I would whole heartily recommend this company and these two gentlemen for any electrical work."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Whole-house generators need to be installed on level ground several feet away from walls and other objects. Because they tap into the electrical system directly, they usually need to be close to your home electrical panel for a transfer switch installation. It also helps with installation if they are near to a gas line or propane tank installation.

Yes, in some locations, it is required by the National Electric Code (NEC) to have a transfer switch installed for electrical emergencies. In addition to following electrical code, generator transfer switches ensure your home is fully protected during a power outage. By switching the power from the main breaker to the generator breaker, you can seamlessly operate your HVAC, lights, appliances, devices, and more during an emergency. 

In some situations, yes. Never try to put biofuel into any home generator without checking the specifics first. If a generator has the ability to run on diesel, it can also run pure biofuel (the clear kind made from seed oils, for example). But if you are using biofuel made from animal fats or vegetable oils, the generator will need significant modifications before it can handle a sludgier type of biofuel.

Costs range from $500 to $2,500, depending on generator type and installation complexity.

While standby generators provide essential backup power, they can fail when you need them most due to lack of maintenance, fuel supply issues, dead batteries, electrical problems, or improper installation. To avoid costly failures, professional installation and regular maintenance are crucial. Licensed technicians ensure safety, uphold warranty requirements, comply with regulations, and provide expert servicing.
