Older Bergen County buildings hide a lot behind the plaster. Around Little Ferry we regularly open a box and find ungrounded two-wire cable, a fuse panel still feeding part of the house, or circuits added by three different owners. None of that is unusual in North Jersey. The job is to trace it properly, fix what is unsafe first, and leave you with a panel schedule that finally matches the house.

If you searched for “whole house generator installation near Little Ferry”, one more thing worth knowing: we coordinate with PSE&G, JCP&L, Atlantic City Electric, Rockland Electric or a municipal utility when a job needs the power company involved, so you do not have to.

Generator installation in Little Ferry: common questions

What size generator do I need?

It depends on what you want to run. Many homes are served by a 14 to 26 kW unit. We calculate it from your actual loads.

Which brands do you install?

Generac, Kohler and other major standby brands, along with transfer switches for portable units.

Is it safe to plug a portable generator into a dryer outlet?

No. That backfeeds the utility line and can kill a line worker. An inlet with an interlock or transfer switch is the safe way.

Which towns near Little Ferry do you serve?

We also work in South Hackensack, Ridgefield Park and Moonachie and the rest of Bergen County.

Are you open nights and weekends in Little Ferry?

Our phone is answered 24 hours a day, every day. Call (888) 633-7804.

What customers say

After the last storm we were done with extension cords. They sized the generator, handled the gas hookup and ran a full test. It has started by itself in every outage since.
Dave P., Morristown

I needed a charger installed before my car arrived. They checked the panel, ran the circuit through the garage and set up the app with me. Neat conduit work and no surprises on the bill.
Priya S., Edison

Half the house went dark on a Sunday night. They picked up on the second ring, told me which breaker to switch off and had someone here that evening. It was a burnt connection in the panel, fixed on the spot.
