What’s Involved in Generator Installation?
Generator installation is a meticulous process that requires expertise and adherence to safety standards. It begins with a thorough site assessment to determine the optimal location for the generator, considering factors like proximity to a home's electrical panel, gas lines, and local codes. Our team obtains all necessary permits to ensure the installation is compliant with regulations. Next, we prepare the site, which may involve pouring a concrete pad to provide a stable and level foundation for the generator. We then carefully connect the generator to the home's electrical system through a transfer switch, allowing for seamless transition to backup power during an outage. This involves precise wiring and integration with the electrical panel.
For fuel-powered generators, we connect the unit to the existing natural gas line or install a propane tank, ensuring a readily available fuel source. Finally, we conduct rigorous testing to verify the generator's functionality and that it operates seamlessly when it’s needed most. Throughout the installation process, our certified electricians prioritize safety and precision, delivering a reliable and code-compliant generator system that provides peace of mind for years to come.

What Size Generator Do I Need for My Home?
Choosing the right generator size is crucial to ensure it can power essential appliances and systems during an outage. A generator that's too small won't provide enough power, while an oversized generator can be inefficient and costly. At I & C Electrical Contracting Services, we take a personalized approach to help residents determine the ideal generator for their home.
The factors involved in choosing the ideal sized generator include:
Assessing the Power Needs
- Essential appliances: Begin by listing the appliances and systems absolutely needed to run during a power outage.This typically includes refrigerators, freezers, lights, air conditioning, and heating systems.
- Wattage requirements: Each appliance has a specific wattage requirement, indicating how much power it consumes. This information can be found on the appliance label or in the owner's manual.
- Starting vs. running wattage: It's important to consider both the running wattage (the power needed to keep the appliance operating) and the starting wattage (the surge of power required to initially start the appliance). Starting wattage is typically higher than running wattage.
