"Seamus Donohue was a man who knew his subject - lightning. He came to our home quickly, and scheduled installation immediately after we made a decision. The men who came to do the installation were professional, careful and took time to make sure the results were as "invisible" as possible. We hope never to have a lightning strike again at our home, but as the weather patterns change, we fear that is more possible than in the past. We feel more protected after our lightning protection installation. But you never know how successful something is if the proof is in something never happening! But we'll take it."

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

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

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.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

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.

You can expect a diesel generator to last for up to 30,000 hours of use, which works out to 20 to 25 years with the proper maintenance, of course. That depends on how much you use it, so a diesel generator used for emergencies a couple of times a year will last a lot longer than a generator that takes over for a faulty electrical grid every month for a day or two.
