It may seem like overkill to prepare for a power outage when you live in the city of Los Angeles, but you probably have had to sit in the dark a time or two during one of those peak usage outages. Wouldn’t it be nice to know you don’t have to worry about even the shortest power outages? This is one of the benefits to having a standby generator installed for your home. Whether you live in the city, the suburbs or in the rural areas around Los Angeles, you can give yourself peace of mind you will never have to do without power. An electrician in Los Angeles is here to explain the benefits to a generator. The team at The Electric Connection can help make it happen.

Standby generators are wired to your home. A switch monitors the electricity flowing into your home and the second the electricity flow is interrupted, it signals the generator to turn on. There is no switching this or that on or pulling a bulky generator out of the shed. It is all done within a matter of seconds and you can carry on without worrying about when the power is going to come back on.

During the installation process, an electrician familiar with Los Angeles electrical codes will need to know what you want to be powered by your generator. You can choose to have the whole home powered or just a few key appliances and lights. The size of your generator will dictate how much you can keep running. Prior to scheduling an install, it would behoove you to do some research or talk with an experienced professional about the various sizes of generators available and what size you need for your home. The team at The Electric Connection can help you with this process. Give us a call today.
