"Within minutes after submitting an inquiry, Seamus contacted me to find out specifics of my project and although he provided an estimate, he was receptive to coming out for a site visit before I committed. Edward came for the preliminary site visit and afterwards, I accepted their proposal. Cliff, the installer, communicated with me with scheduling and was very professional and easy deal with. Edward performed an inspection after install to make sure everything was done properly. The people representing this company seem very knowledgeable about their work and is backed up by generations of experience."

A few examples include complete wiring of a weld shop that I built for fabrication.  They sat down with me and we discussed any ideas I had and then they made suggestions using their extensive experience to help me get what would function the way it should be.  They got to work and finished the job in what I considered amazing time at a very fair price.  Along the job there were some changes that became aware about functionality and they adapted like nothing was a problem and gave me complete satisfaction.  The shop has been used now for maybe 8 years with no trouble whatsoever and I have comfort to know it was wired to be safe and everything that was done was assured to have the right size wire, switches, plugs and breakers.

Another example of a few smaller jobs was one where a circuit of plugs stopped working in one home bedroom.  Barry and his crew started the trouble shoot in the attic and worked their way down to the bedroom itself.  They then diligently checked each plug along the circuit and finally found where a wire had shorted and was no longer making contact.  Unfortunately, the day before I was changing some plugs hot and had shorted out a plug with my screwdriver.  Even though that plug kept working it had caused the short in the plug down line.  It turned out to be my fault but they knew how to check other places.

A recent job on a rental property was having intermittent power problems in an all electric home.  The problem was so random it did not provide much evidence of any failure.  Again Barry and his crew went to work like robots checking every step of the way plugs, switches. connections, and then breakers.  Finally, they  found a breaker was weak so not tripping and had broken off inside the rail in the breaker box.  They got a new breaker and in style saved me money by re-routing the breaker to another open slot in the breaker box. 

Just know Activate Electric, Barry Crouch and his team are ready to save you money, do a thorough safe job in as short of time possible and if you can't smile once they are done and paying them for the great work they do let them know what is wrong and they will do anything possible to make you happy.  Trust me, I am just a customer and not paid for this and have no family or professional connection with their company, they are just a pleasure to deal with.

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Whole-house generators can run continuously for extended periods, even for weeks at a time (around 400 to 500 hours), as long as they have a sufficient fuel supply. However, this type of extensive use will increase wear and tear and can shorten the generator's overall lifespan. During long periods of operation, it's important to check and refill the engine oil as needed, potentially as frequently as daily depending on the model. If your generator uses a fuel tank, ensure it is kept full to prevent unexpected shutdowns.

Yes, in most municipalities, you will need a permit to install a permanent home generator, including emergency backup, partial-home, and whole-home models. Because these installations involve significant alterations to your home's electrical system and produce exhaust fumes, local governments often require a permit or inspection for safety purposes. A generator permit typically costs between $50 and $250, depending on your location. Your electrician or certified installer can usually handle the permitting process for you, but you will be responsible for the cost. It's a good practice to confirm with your installer that they will pull all necessary permits before work begins.

In most cases, there are no tax credits available for home generators. However, that’s a general statement that applies to federal tax credits, so you might have access to state or local tax incentives. You can check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables & Efficiency (DSIRE) for more information about your area. If you hire a reliable home generator installer, they should also know if there are any state or local perks you can use to reduce your installation costs, including tax breaks and rebates.

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.

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.
