"I would recommend Current Electric to anyone! They are affordable, professional, and customer service oriented. We had Eric as our electrician and he went above and beyond for us. We had a new outlet installed, can lights installed, and ceiling fans installed. He kept us informed the whole time with updates on progress, time frames, and got our input along the way. We will definitely be using Current for all of our electric needs."

"This is the first time I used Mr. Sparky, and they will definitely be my new go to electricians! I love that they are a small locally owned business! I called about a small non-urgent project, and they were able to come the same day, despite being backed up due to many local flooding issues. Kasey was extremely friendly and helpful on the phone and communication was excellent from start to finish. James showed up on time and was very sweet, yet professional, and my cats even loved him :) He was respectful of me and my property, and took care of my issue in no time. The price was very reasonable! I will definitely call them again, and would highly recommend!"

"Zach was first to arrive and noted we had a bathroom exhaust fan to replace and the need for a whole-home surge protector. Zach checked our electrical first, as a good diagnostic first step, and discovered a voltage drop. I decided to hold off on that for a short time. Evan arrived and wasted no time in removing the existing bath fan/light and installing the new unit. Following the bathroom, Evan installed the whole-house surge protector. Zach and Evan were not only professional and knowledgeable but also extremely courteous and friendly. It was a pleasure having these gentlemen do my work, and I have no hesitation in calling Over the Moon for further electrical work."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

A 10,000-watt generator can run a small to mid-sized central AC unit (typically up to 3 tons or 36,000 BTU) along with a few other appliances. However, larger AC units or additional loads will require a bigger generator. Consult a local generator installer to ensure you add the correct size generator to your home.

To power a central air system during a power outage, the whole-house generator will need to be at least 5,000 watts, and this number will significantly increase for larger units. Check the specific wattage requirements of your AC unit to choose the right generator size. Consider consulting a generator installer to ensure your whole-house generator meets your electrical load needs.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

If you’re deciding between a solar battery versus a generator for the best backup power solution, you can take a few factors into consideration. Solar batteries are quiet while generators can be quite loud. Generators have a lower up-front cost, but they require fuel and ongoing maintenance while solar batteries are more expensive but don’t have many ongoing costs.

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.
