Questions about connecting backup power

How does a generator connect to my electrical panel for Generator Installation?

Feeder wiring carries generator power through a transfer switch to the connected electrical panel. GMB Electric plans the connection around your property's system and the circuits you want to power. The transfer switch separates generator power from utility power. We'll explain how the proposed connection fits your panel before the work begins.

Which equipment should I tell you about before requesting a quote?

Your generator details and the equipment you want to power help us assess the job. Tell us whether you already own the generator and identify the loads you consider essential. Information from the generator's label can help us understand its output. We'll also need access to the electrical panel to assess the connection.

Why does the electrical panel matter for backup power?

The electrical panel distributes power to your property's circuits, so its layout matters for the generator connection. We assess the panel and identify the circuits involved in your plan. A connection designed for selected equipment may differ from one serving more of the property. We'll discuss the scope with you after reviewing the system.

What part of the connection can change the project price?

The connection layout can change the project price because it affects the electrical work required. The existing panel and the equipment you want to power also shape the scope. We'll assess those details and explain the proposed work in a quote. Tell us if you already have a generator, since its specifications matter to the plan.

When is an electrical repair a better fit than a new generator connection?

An electrical repair is the better fit when your concern is a fault in an existing circuit or outlet. We also handle breaker problems and other electrical repairs. If you want backup power for an outage, a generator connection addresses a different need. Tell us what is happening at your property, and we'll discuss the appropriate work.
