What is Involved in Installation
Generators have different capabilities and sizes. Depending on the size, type and how much electricity it can generate, the generator needs to be installed in a particular way. Some factors that go into a generator installation include:
- Assessment of energy needs- How big is the building and what are you powering in the building? There are permanent generator units that power the entire house, and there are portable units that power only a few major appliances. What type of generator you are looking for will determine what kind of installation you need.
- Site preparation- For a permanent unit, a concrete site prepared in advance is required.
- Improvement of electrical panel, installation of transfer switch and new wiring- The electrician will need to make sure that all of your home’s electrical components are ready for the use of a generator and may recommend an electrical panel upgrade if needed.
- Permits and permissions- There are codes and permits that need to be maintained with which an electrician can assist.
