FAQs

To install a generator transfer switch, turn off the main power, mount the switch near the breaker panel, run conduit between the switch and panel, connect the switch to the desired circuits, install an outdoor power inlet box, run a cable from the inlet box to the switch, and test the setup with the generator. Hiring a licensed electrician is recommended for safety and compliance.

The cost to install a Generac generator varies depending on the size and complexity of the installation. On average, it ranges from a few thousand dollars for smaller units to several thousand dollars for larger, whole-house generators, including both the generator and installation costs.

Installing a whole house generator involves selecting an appropriate location, setting a concrete pad, installing a transfer switch, running electrical wiring from the generator to the switch, connecting the generator to the fuel source, and performing initial startup and testing. It's best to hire a licensed electrician and possibly a plumber for fuel connections.

To install a generator interlock kit, turn off the main power, remove the panel cover, attach the interlock kit to prevent simultaneous use of the main and generator breakers, install a dedicated breaker for the generator, run a power inlet box outside, connect wiring from the inlet box to the breaker, replace the panel cover, and test the system with the generator. It is advisable to have the installation inspected by a licensed electrician.

While it is possible to install a generator yourself, it is generally recommended to hire a licensed electrician for the installation. This ensures the generator is installed correctly, safely, and in compliance with local building codes. Improper installation can lead to serious safety hazards, including electrical fires, carbon monoxide poisoning, and damage to your home's electrical system.
