Back Up Power - Generators

           Emergency Electrical Power Systems

 
  • Option A.   Non-Automatic Power Generator System  -  Portable Unit
    Stow-away portable generators can be brought out when needed.
    They can be plugged into your property with a cord/outlet and switch set up.

    Option B.   Automatic Power Generator System  -  Permanent Unit
    This permanent system will automatically start up and run in the event of a power outage.
    This system will also require a permanent fuel supply installation such as natural gas.

    These are some typical examples and costs -

    Option A.   Non-Automatic Power Generator System  -  Residential
    Portable Generator supplied by the property owner (with our guidance) --------------$0.00
    Electrical Installations for Connection Cord, Outlet and Switch --------------------$1,250.00

    Option B.   Automatic Power Generator System  -  Residential
    8,000 watt Automatic Standby Generator (approx.)  -------------------------------$3,000.00
    Automatic Transfer Switch (approx.) -------------------------------------------------$1,800.00
    Fuel Supply installation such as LP Gas (approx.) -------------------------------------$600.00
    Electrical installations for all the above -----------------------------------------------$4,000.00

    Special Notes - These two options are meant to explain some of the costs in providing the minimum amount of electrical power needed during an outage (also known as "essential loads").  The power estimation for your property is based on essential loads such as; essential lighting and equipment, computers, furnace, refrigerator, etc.  Heavier power items such as air conditioners may drain the system and shut it down.

    Other Notes about Option A.  This is a portable system on wheels and will require a person who is familiar with a start up procedure (approx. 4 steps). This system will require less maintenance in the long run than Option B.

    Other Notes about Option B.  -  This system is a permanent installation and will require an exercise routine once a month to insure an automatic start up.  Exhaust and fuel installations must comply with local codes.
