Reviews

Generator Installation Reviews from Cornelius Customers

★★★★★

“Our restaurant kitchen kept tripping breakers during the dinner rush. They added dedicated circuits over two nights and we've had zero issues since.”

Stephanie M.Cornelius, NC
★★★★★

“Honest advice. They told me I didn't need a full panel upgrade for my EV charger — just a load manager — and saved me a lot of money.”

Chris O.Cornelius, NC
★★★★★

“Our breaker panel was over 40 years old and the electrician walked me through every option before we chose a 200 amp upgrade. Clean install, passed inspection the first time.”

FAQ

Generator Installation in Cornelius — Common Questions

How long does installation take?

Most standby generator electrical installations in Cornelius are completed in one to two days once the pad and fuel line are in place.

What size generator do I need for my Cornelius home?

It depends on what you want to run. A 14–22 kW air-cooled unit covers most Cornelius homes; larger homes or those running multiple HVAC systems may need a liquid-cooled unit. We perform a load calculation before recommending a size.

Do you install Generac generators in Cornelius?

Yes. Generac is the most popular brand we install in Cornelius, NC, and we also install Kohler, Cummins and Briggs & Stratton systems.

Can I just use a portable generator?

A portable generator with a properly installed transfer switch and inlet is a safe, lower-cost option. Never backfeed a generator through a dryer outlet — it is dangerous to you and to utility workers.

How much does whole house generator installation cost in Cornelius?

Installed cost varies with generator size, distance from the panel and fuel source. We provide a complete quote covering the electrical installation, transfer switch and permits. Call (888) 592-6466.
