The electrical work behind your backup power plan

Generator work and panel needs

A generator connection has to fit the existing electrical system. We're insured, and we can also address panel upgrades when they're part of the job.

An existing electrical fault

A new generator isn't the right fix for every power problem. If a circuit fails while utility power is available, we can troubleshoot the fault.

Questions about generator backup power

Can a generator start automatically during an outage for Generator Installation?

Yes, a compatible standby generator can start automatically with automatic transfer equipment. Earth Electric can discuss that setup with you as part of the installation plan. The generator and transfer controls need to work together. We'll also discuss which circuits you want the system to supply.

Which panel conditions can change the installation price?

Panel capacity and the connection work can change the price of a generator installation. We consider the existing panel and your chosen backup circuits when preparing a quote. A panel upgrade can add work to the project if the existing system needs changes. Tell us about any known panel concerns when you request your estimate.

How do I know which circuits need backup power for Generator Installation?

Your essential appliances and equipment guide the choice of backup circuits. We can discuss their electrical demand and how you plan to use them during an outage. A home and a retail space may have different priorities. Bring a list of the items you want to keep running, including any equipment with a motor.

When is troubleshooting a better fit than a new generator?

Electrical troubleshooting is a better fit when a circuit fails during normal utility service. We can investigate the fault and discuss the repair it needs. A backup generator supplies power during an outage, but it doesn't fix faulty wiring or a damaged breaker. Tell us what stopped working and whether other circuits still have power.

Why does a generator need a transfer switch?

A transfer switch directs a property's electrical load between utility power and generator power. We select the connection approach as part of the electrical plan. The switch also prevents the generator from feeding power back into utility lines when properly installed. The switch's operation depends on the equipment and the setup you choose.

What should I tell you before requesting a quote for Generator Installation?

Your property type and backup power goals help us discuss the scope of your quote. Let us know if you already have a generator or are planning to select one. Panel access and the equipment you want to power also matter. If you have generator specifications, share them with us so we can discuss the electrical connection.
