Generator installation in Spotswood
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 Spotswood for Generac installation, whole house generator installation and backup generator electrician. If you are not sure which one you need, describe the problem and we will tell you.

Generator installation in Spotswood: 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 Spotswood?
Yes. We work throughout Spotswood and Middlesex County, including ZIP code 08884.
