Standby generator installation in Pine Brook
We begin with what you want running in an outage, then size the generator to match. The installation covers the pad, the automatic transfer switch, the wiring to your panel and start-up testing. We coordinate the natural gas or propane connection. For portable generators we fit an inlet and an interlock so you can power the panel safely without backfeeding the line.
We also get calls from Pine Brook for Generac installation, backup generator electrician and generator installation. If you are not sure which one you need, describe the problem and we will tell you.

Much of Morris County is wooded, and overhead lines run a long way through trees. When a storm comes through, power can stay out for a while. That is why so many of our calls around Pine Brook are for standby generators, transfer switches, surge protection and well-pump circuits, along with the usual repairs.
If you searched for “backup generator electrician near Pine Brook”, 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 Pine Brook: 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.
Do you cover all of Pine Brook?
Yes. We work throughout Pine Brook and Morris County, including ZIP code 07058.
Are you open nights and weekends in Pine Brook?
Our phone is answered 24 hours a day, every day. Call (888) 633-7804.
