"These technicians are capable, friendly, punctual people. They did an inspection, completed a project that included digging and running lines, updated electrical panel, installed GFI plugs and replaced plugs and switches that were not working. Everyone explained everything and the cost was only what had been given us before doing the work. Travis Electrical will be my only call when any issue arises!"

"This is definitely the guy to hire if you need any electrical work done! He was kind and exceptionally professional. It was supposed to be a simple ceiling fan replacement. However, Larry found a serious problem with my wiring that I'm blessed didn't actually cause a fire in my home. He showed me the problem and fixed it even though that really should have been a separate call. I am over the top pleased with the service and work performance. I HIGHLY recommend Top Notch Electrical and Larry!!! 5 STARS!!!"

"It would be very difficult, if not impossible to find another company that has the commitment to excellence that M&M Electric has. I had them put in new central heating and air in my house and was surprised at how quickly they installed everything while still maintaining a high quality standard and while paying attention to every detail. Very impressive considering what they charged for the install was way less than what I was expecting to pay. I will definitely keep their number handy for any other jobs that pop up."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

In most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home generators. A permit for a generator usually costs between $50 and $250, depending on where you live. Your electrician or certified generator installer will usually pull the permit for you—and might be required to do so by your building department—but you’ll be on the hook for the cost of the permit. You should ask your installer before agreeing to any work if they will pull the necessary permits for your project.

Carbon monoxide emissions aren’t only dangerous to human life, but they also harm our planet. While natural gas generators emit lower levels of CO than other fuel sources, there are still ways to reduce emission levels. For example, shop around for an eco-friendly generator that complies with current emission standards. Also, make sure your generator is serviced regularly to avoid CO buildup. 

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

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.

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.
