What Are the Benefits of Temporary Backup Generators?
Temporary backup generators are a great cost-effective means of temporary power during a power outage. At Mel Carr Electric, we are fully qualified and experienced with the hookup necessary to make these units a part of your home safety plan.
In the event of a power outage, these units would be wheeled into place and plugged into an outlet on the outside of your home, away from any windows or entrances. Though we do not sell these generators, we would provide you with the correct cord and outlet to make this system run up to 10 circuits in your home! We also install a transfer switch to ensure that the power from the generator and the power from the power company are kept separate.
These units do require a little work on the part of the homeowner to get the power back during an outage. Specifically, you must move and start the generator, and then you must switch over the power at your panel box.
