Backup Power During Outages: Whole House Generator Installation in Glassboro
Professional Generator Setup with Complete Electrical Integration
Glassboro residents choose whole house generator installation because power outages disrupt heating, refrigeration, medical equipment, and home security systems—sometimes for days during severe weather. MDM Electric provides professional whole-house generator installation and setup to deliver backup power during outages, with complete electrical connections and safety systems that activate automatically when utility power fails.
A whole house generator differs from portable units by integrating directly with your home's electrical system through an automatic transfer switch. When the utility power drops, the transfer switch detects the loss within seconds, starts the generator, and shifts your home to backup power without manual intervention. Essential circuits—heating, refrigeration, lighting, well pumps, and medical devices—continue operating seamlessly. When utility power returns, the system transfers back and shuts down the generator automatically.
Installation Process and Safety System Setup
Generator installation begins with load calculation to determine the generator size needed to power your essential circuits. The unit gets installed on a concrete pad outside the home, connected to your natural gas or propane supply, and wired to the electrical panel through an automatic transfer switch. The transfer switch isolates your home from the utility grid during generator operation, preventing backfeed that could endanger line workers.
All electrical connections meet New Jersey codes and include weatherproof conduit, proper grounding, and circuit protection. The system undergoes testing under simulated outage conditions to confirm automatic startup, transfer switch operation, and generator performance under load. You receive operating instructions and a maintenance schedule to ensure long-term reliability. The installation includes permit coordination and final inspection approval.
