Frequently Asked Questions on Generators

Are backup generators worth it?

Backup generators are worth it for homeowners who want a reliable source of backup power in the event of a power outage. Backup generators are worth it for business owners who have sensitive products or critical systems and equipment and who serve customers or patients where the business staying operational during a power outage is crucial.

How does a backup generator work?

An automatic transfer switch (ATS) senses a power outage and sends a signal to the backup generator to start up.
The backup generator’s engine generates electrical energy from mechanical energy.
The new electrical energy is distributed to the electrical panel of the building via the ATS.
Once power on the main grid is restored, the ATS signals the backup generator to shut off, returning it to standby mode until needed again.
