At RHODY ELECTRIC our goal is to make a life long customer! We are a small family owned business that takes pride in our craftsmanship and knowledge. We are licensed and insured in Tennessee. We specialize in all aspects of residential and commercial electrical construction and repairs. With over 25 years in the industry and licensed in two states I have the skills and experience to do it right the first time. Why pay those big corporate companies with all the overhead, when one call to Rhodyelectrictn.com will get it done!!

"These guys are great! They did some work at our business with some outdoor color changing spot lighting and also at our home with some bathroom fan issues. Both times they show up when they say they will, they went the extra mile and came back at night to adjust our lighting and trained us on how to use everything with the lighting apps. I can't say enough about these guys. Its great to find a tradesman that actually cares and shows up. They are also more than fair on the pricing as well."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

No, this is extremely dangerous, often illegal, and you should never attempt it. If you connect your generator to your home without a transfer switch, the generated power can backfeed, essentially flowing back into the utility lines. Backfeeding exposes a significant threat of fatalities or harm to you and utility personnel, in addition to jeopardizing the structural integrity of your home.

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.

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.
