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.

Generator installation in South Amboy: 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.

Yes. We work throughout South Amboy and Middlesex County, including ZIP code 08879.
