"I am pleased to provide a review for Jason and the team at Sewell Electric for their excellent work on my recent recessed lighting project. From the beginning, Jason was prompt in responding to my request for a project quote. He was able to come out the following day for a free consultation and quote, which was a great price compared to other electricians I had contacted. I was impressed with how quickly the team was able to return to my home within a few days to complete the work. During the installation process, they placed plastic over the living room furniture to protect it from dust, which was a thoughtful gesture. They did a superb job on the lighting installation, and their professionalism was evident throughout the project. After completing the project, they even vacuumed and cleaned up afterwards, which was a nice touch. The quote that Jason provided was spot on, and I appreciated how transparent and honest he was throughout the process. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the quality of work that Sewell Electric provided, and I will definitely use them in the future if a need for related work arises. I highly recommend Sewell Electric to anyone in need of electrical services. Thank you, Jason, and the team at Sewell Electric, for a job well done!"

"He showed up, evaluated and made recommendations for repairing instead of replacing the van, as well as remediating some exhaust issues that were not previously addressed. He replaced the motor on the fan and installed exhaust hose on the same visit. I found Jaren to be cordial, knowledgeable and honest. I will hire them again for other electrical issues in the future."

"By far the best value for the work done. Everything was done within a few hours and the new panel works great. Even though they had to drill some new holes for the panel, it was done well and is overall very clean looking. I will always be recommending them for any electrical work to my friends, and will be sure to use them in the future."

"Dan installed a new electrical panel, a new outdoor outlet for my rv, ran wire to the other side of the house and installed another upgraded outlet for my electric kiln. It was a messy job but at the end you couldnâ  t tell he had been there. He was reasonably priced and I intend to use him again."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Sizing a generator is a careful process that requires calculating the electrical load of your entire house. You have to take into account every device you want to use and their wattage requirements, plus the wattage needed to start them, and look for a generator that can safely run all that at around 80% capacity.

In more practical terms, a small home can run on a 10,000-watt generator (and if you only want to power a few key appliances, much less than that). A mid-sized home may need something between 15,000 and 22,000 watts. Larger homes require 25,000 watts or more. 

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. 

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.
