Home Generator Outlet Install
The Assurance Power Systems Experts Provide Home Generator Outlet Installation Services to Delray Beach Residents
A home generator is an important investment you’ll make in the safety of your Delray Beach home. In the event of severe weather, grid failures, electric utility breakdowns, and other power loss events, your home generator will keep you and your family safe and comfortable, which is especially important in extremely hot or cold weather. You’ll be able to meet your basic needs and ensure a comfortable living environment during an emergency situation, something that is most likely not possible without electricity.
If you happen to have a portable home generator, you’ll need to either hook it up to your home’s electrical grid or hook up individual appliances to the generator. The former is much more convenient, but you can’t just plug your generator into any old outlet. You’ll need the Assurance Power Systems professionals to install a home generator outlet that connects to your home’s electrical grid. A home generator outlet will enable you to power your entire home with ease, instead of selecting specific appliances to hook up. Overall, a home generator outlet will help you and your family remain comfortable in the event of a power outage. Installing a home generator outlet should be your next step after purchasing a home generator, so be sure to call (561) 448-3651 to schedule a service appointment!
What to Expect When You Have Assurance Power Systems Install a Home Generator Outlet in Your Assurance Power Systems Home
When you have Assurance Power Systems install a home generator outlet, the specific components and setup of your system may vary depending on your Delray Beach home’s electrical system and capabilities. In most cases, your home generator outlet will be connected to your electrical grid with a transfer switch, which controls your home’s power source by switching between the grid supply and your generator as needed. Transfer switches can be either manual, meaning you will have to flip the switch to access generator power, or automatic, which switches the power source automatically during a power outage. Either way, you’ll be able to conveniently power your entire Delray Beach home with your home generator thanks to the home generator outlet installed by the Assurance Power Systems professionals.
To ensure that you use your home generator safely and effectively, Assurance Power Systems recommends unplugging any electrical appliances you don’t need, and shutting off any lights or appliances that aren’t in use. This will help you conserve fuel for your generator! Be sure to have a Assurance Power Systems professional teach you the exact process you need to follow for your specific home generator outlet, which is especially important if you have chosen a manual transfer switch. Don’t hesitate to call (561) 448-3651 with any questions or concerns!
Benefits and Advantages of Professional Home Generator Outlet Installation with the Assurance Power Systems Experts
Any electrical work is extremely dangerous for an amateur to attempt, especially if you are trying to connect your generator to your Delray Beach home’s electrical grid. That’s why you should rely on the Assurance Power Systems professionals to install your home generator outlet. Our team will install a permanent solution for your generator, and you can be sure we’ll perform a high-quality home generator outlet installation that you won’t have to worry about.

The Assurance Power Systems professionals also have extensive knowledge on any local regulations for connecting a generator to your Delray Beach home, including any additional parts or components that will be needed to ensure compliance with these regulations. We can also determine if your home’s breaker box can provide a safe and reliable setup for a home generator, and if not, we will provide you with the appropriate services to amend the problem. Additionally, you’ll avoid the risk of backfeeding, a dangerous issue that occurs when a portable generator is directly connected to your Delray Beach home’s electrical panel via a standard outlet. This feeds energy into utility lines, increasing the voltage and posing the risk of injury or death to any workers or people who come into contact with them, for which you would be held liable. Avoid all of these potential issues by going with the Assurance Power Systems team from the beginning!

Can I plug my home generator into one of my Delray Beach home’s outlets?
No! You should never plug a portable home generator into a standard electrical outlet. This could result in backfeeding, which occurs when the generator powering your Delray Beach home sends electricity down the utility lines. Backfeeding can electrocute people, and has the potential to cause injury or even death. It can also cause fires in your home, so to avoid all of these safety hazards, be sure to have the Assurance Power Systems professionals install a home generator outlet in your home.
How much will it cost to have the Assurance Power Systems team install a home generator outlet in my Delray Beach home?
The total cost to have a Assurance Power Systems expert install a home generator outlet or receptacle will vary depending on your unique situation. For example, if your Delray Beach home’s electrical system is over 15 years old, we will have to upgrade it, which will add to the overall cost. Call (561) 448-3651 for a no-obligation quote, so you can learn exactly how much a home generator installation service will cost you.
