Frequently asked questions
Can I plug my generator into a wall outlet?
No. Backfeeding through an outlet is dangerous for you and utility workers. A transfer switch or interlock is the safe way to connect a generator.
Can backup power cover my whole house?
It can, but it's usually more practical to back up a critical-load panel. We'll help you decide based on your needs and budget.
