What's Involved in a Generator Install

  1. Site assessment and load discussion: what you want to keep running.
  2. Pad and location planning.
  3. Fuel coordination (natural gas or LP), as needed.
  4. Transfer switch or interlock installation.
  5. Connections, startup and walkthrough so you know how it works.

Standby vs. Portable Hookup

Standby generators start automatically when the power goes out and can run your whole home or the circuits you choose. Portable generator hookups let you safely connect a portable unit to selected circuits without dangerous cord-through-window setups.

Why Choose a Local Electrician

Generator installation is tied to your panel, grounding and electrical service. It should be done by a licensed electrician who does it right the first time. We're based in Hernando and work across DeSoto County.

Questions

Do I need a transfer switch?

For a safe backup power setup, a transfer switch or approved interlock is required so your generator never feeds power back onto the utility lines.

How do I choose the right generator size?

It depends on what you want to run (HVAC, well pump, kitchen, etc.). We talk through priorities and recommend a setup that fits.

Do you only install one brand?

We install backup power systems suited to the job. Ask what fits your home and budget.

Can you hook up the portable generator I already have?

Yes. We install portable generator hookups with an inlet and a transfer switch or interlock, so you can run selected circuits without cords through a window.
