    How Backup Generators Work

    Understanding how a backup generator functions can help you appreciate the value of installation. A home standby generator provides automatic, uninterrupted power to your property when the main electrical grid fails. Unlike portable units, a standby or whole-house system is permanently installed and wired directly into your home’s electrical panel.

    Here’s a simple breakdown of how it works:

    • Automatic Detection: The system has an automatic transfer switch that constantly monitors the flow of electricity. When it senses an outage or voltage drop, it automatically signals the generator to start.
    • Immediate Power Transfer: Within seconds, the generator powers on. Electricity is then routed directly from the generator to your home’s circuits. This keeps lights, appliances, and heating or cooling systems running.
    • Continuous Operation: The generator continues to run as long as the power outage lasts. It draws fuel from a connected natural gas or propane line, allowing it to operate for extended periods without manual refueling.
    • Automatic Shutdown: Once utility power is restored, the transfer switch seamlessly transitions your home back to the main grid and powers down the generator.

    This process happens automatically, so you never have to worry about manually starting or stopping your generator. With DT Electric’s generator installation services, you’ll enjoy reliable, hands-free protection from power outages year-round.

    Choosing the Right Generator for Your Home

    Every home has unique electrical demands. The right system depends on your lifestyle, property size, and the appliances or systems you want to power during an outage. Our team will walk you through your options. We’ll help you decide whether a whole-house generator or a smaller standby unit makes the most sense for your budget and needs.

    We can provide expert recommendations for leading generator brands and models that are known for reliability, fuel efficiency, and low maintenance requirements. If you’re not sure what size or type of generator you need, our electricians will calculate your home’s total load requirements and recommend the safest, most efficient solution.
