"I would give these guys at least 6+ stars if possible. I connected with Tor Electric through Home Advisor. They installed multiple switches, a Nest outdoor camera, and an outdoor outlet. The last 2 we're at my roofline, requiring Tor to crawl through my attic. Tor & Cam did such a great job! They didn't leave until the camera was adjusted correctly and I was completely satisfied with their full installation. They were very helpful, professional, and unlike most electricians I have dealt with before. I asked them to replace a 3-way switch with one I handed them. As it turns out, the switches did NOT need replacing. Most electricians I've dealt with before, would replace them anyway and come back and say it's done, because that's what I asked for. Cam came back and said replacement was not needed and explained. Saved me $ and time. So, a big THANK YOU!! Absolutely recommend this company. I'm about to have some appliances replaced. They said they can do it. I won't even consider any one else!"

"I recently used Cubix Power for an electrical service project and was extremely impressed with their work. The team was professional from start to finish, arriving on time, explaining everything clearly, and making sure the job was done right. Their knowledge and expertise really stood out, and they were able to quickly diagnose and resolve the issue. On top of that, their pricing was very fair compared to other quotes I received. I highly recommend Cubix Power to anyone looking for reliable and trustworthy electrical services"

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A portable generator can supply power to selected appliances and circuits in a home, but it's generally not designed to handle the entire household's electrical needs simultaneously. Portable generators have limited wattage capacity, so they are only designed to power essential devices and electronics temporarily until local power is restored. If your power needs outweigh the capabilities of a portable generator, consider installing a whole-home generator instead.

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.

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.

DIY is possible for basic setups. Professional installation ensures safe and proper electrical connections.

Generally, you’ll want to keep between 60 and 70 feet between the generator and the transfer switch. There are a few reasons for this, including:

  • The distance reduces the noise coming from the generator into your home.

  • It increases efficiency because you won’t have a voltage drop from this short of a distance.

  • Prevents carbon monoxide poisoning: keep at least 15 feet between your generator and an open window.
