Whole-Home Generator Installation in Taylors, SC
Our Greenville branch completed a professional, code-compliant whole-home generator installation and whole-house surge protection for homeowner Randy Odom in Taylors, SC. On October 3, 2024, technicians Tyler Harris and Steve Goheen handled the electrical portion of a customer-supplied Generac standby system, including the automatic transfer switch (ATS) and load-shed modules, along with permitting, inspection coordination, and operational testing.
What We Installed and Included
- Installed and wired a customer-supplied Generac standby generator on a customer-provided pad.
- Mounted and connected the Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) for seamless utility-to-generator transition.
- Integrated load-shed modules to prioritize large appliances and manage available generator capacity.
- Provided up to 50 feet of properly sized feeder conductors and conduit between the generator, ATS, and main service equipment.
- Handled electrical permitting and arranged inspection as required in Taylors.
- Completed start-up and testing of the electrical portion to verify transfer and load management functions.
Scope note: The customer supplied the generator, ATS, load-shed modules, and pad. Ongoing equipment servicing is not included in install-only projects. Fuel source connection (natural gas/propane) is performed by a licensed plumber and is not part of our electrical scope.
Whole-House Surge Protection with $50k/10-Year Coverage
To safeguard the home’s sensitive electronics and appliances, we installed a whole-house surge protector at the main electrical panel. This device diverts excess voltage safely to ground, helping protect against:
- Lightning-related surges and storm activity
- Utility grid fluctuations and switching events
- In-home equipment cycling that causes voltage spikes
By reducing damaging voltage spikes, the surge protector helps extend the lifespan of appliances and electronics. This model includes a $50,000, 10-year warranty covering connected home appliances in the unlikely event of device failure.
