How a Whole-House Generator Works
A whole-home generator automatically kicks in when the power goes out, seamlessly switching your home to backup power. Here's how your whole-home generator system operates:
- Automatic Monitoring: The generator's transfer switch continuously monitors your home's electrical supply, instantly detecting when utility power is interrupted by storms, equipment failures, or grid issues.
- Seamless Power Transfer: Within 10-20 seconds of detecting an outage, the automatic transfer switch safely disconnects your home from the utility grid and signals the generator to start, providing uninterrupted power to your essential systems.
- Automatic Restoration: When utility power returns, the system automatically transfers your home back to grid power, runs a brief cool-down cycle, and returns to standby mode, ready for the next outage.
This automated process means your HVAC system continues running, lights stay on, appliances keep working, and your family maintains normal routines during power outages, all without manual intervention or fumbling with flashlights, candles, and camping lanterns.

The Benefits of Professional Whole-Home Generators
While portable generators require you to drag them outside, connect extension cords, and manually start them during emergencies, a professionally installed whole-home generator eliminates these hassles entirely. Consider these important reasons to invest in a whole-home generator:
- Stay Connected During Emergencies: Maintain access to communication sources during storms and power outages so you can stay informed and reach emergency services when needed.
- Fuel Safety and Convenience: It connects to your existing natural gas or LP fuel supply, eliminating the need for hazardous fuel storage in your home.
- Protect Your Livelihood: Keep home offices operational to avoid lost income or forced time off when you can't complete work during outages.
- Critical Health and Safety Needs: Keeps oxygen machines, refrigerated medications, and stair lifts operational during outages when power is essential for health.
A whole-home generator installation from Service Experts transforms how your family experiences power outages, turning potential emergencies into minor inconveniences.

Signs of electrical service issues include flickering lights, frequent circuit breaker trips, hot or discolored electrical outlets or switches, buzzing sounds from outlets or switches, and burning smells. Another issue is improper outlets in the kitchen or bathroom – which should be GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) outlets. This is a shock-resistant outlet that acts as a safety measure and helps prevent fire hazards since water is a great conductor of electricity.

It is recommended that electrical service be inspected at least every 10 years to ensure that it is safe and up to code.

Some safety precautions include turning off the power supply before working on any electrical component, using insulated tools, wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), and following electrical codes and regulations.
