"Work was well done, and they thought about how to best install the outlets to serve the needed purpose. Installation was quick and professional, they also cleaned up after themselves. I will use Thundercolt Electric for future electrical needs."

"I had finally broke down and bought a generator. When I called one of the big guys they said they would show up at a certain time. Lets just say they did not. When I called to their office all I got was the run around. I was referred to James Griffin Electric by a friend and when I called I was surprised the owner actually answered. He was able to get out there very promptly and got me going. I will definitely be using him again and referring him in the future."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Yes. You can connect your home back-up battery to a generator with its designated charger. Be sure that the output of the generator matches the input requirements for the battery for best results.

If you’re wondering if you can use your electric vehicle as a backup battery, it depends on whether your EV is compatible with bidirectional charging. This technology allows energy to flow both ways, enabling vehicle-to-home (V2H) backup power, vehicle-to-load (V2L) for appliances and camping, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) to support the power grid. Compatible EVs convert stored DC energy into usable AC power, helping reduce energy costs and enhance grid stability while providing emergency backup power.

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. 

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. 

Portable generators provide backup power for essential appliances during outages and are easy to relocate.
