The season is upon us.  I am starting to get more calls now that the first few storms have formed.  Please don't wait till one is knocking on our door to call me.  Because, I will be bogged down with work.

It really is the best, safest, only way to go if you have a small to medium sized portable generator.  Not too mention, I was bombarded last season when storms where out there and I could not get to everyone at the same time.  So now would be a good time for me to do some more of these in the off season. 

I can install a transfer switch that will handle a 30 amp portable generator on 100 amp service for $335.00.  If you have a 50 amp portable generator, it's just slightly more due to wire sizes and outlet amperage ratings being more.  This covers a standard installation of the switch and outlet next to your meter box.  If the switch or outlet needs to be located farther away due to other components (telephone box, cable box) mounted in the way, the price will vary slightly more due to extra wire and conduit needed.  Just give me a call and I'll come take a look for free.  No charge for to come take a look and give you any info.

This switch will allow you to switch from gulf power to your generator in a safe way. It will allow you to choose which circuits you want to power and you can change those circuits at any time in your house sub panel.

I have been in the Electrical field for 10+ years now.  Did commercial electrical work for 6 years and then went and got my Electrical Engineering degree.   I got out of the construction side of things and now sit behind a desk all day. But I still do side jobs like this from time to time to help folks out and make some extra fishing money.

I have installed one for FelixH, dockmaster, LyinDog, JoeBuck, Tdevil76, RUSTY, and Promark, and a few other people that found me on the forum for references etc...

You can PM or call my cell (529-9349) for more details or if you want me to come take a look, free of charge, at possibly installing one.

Here is a picture of the setup on my house with a paintshop label job so you can see what is what.

$335.00 covers all material and labor for the basic install to handle a 7500 watt, 30 amp or less generator.  Just shoot me a PM or call me up on my cell to come take a look.

Jon does some very good work! Very organized and clean install, which is the way I like things done. Thankfully, I haven't had a need to use the switch he installed for me, but it's there for when I do need it.

Jon did a great job for me.  I have not had to use the switch yet (thankfully) but I do have peace of mind knowing that it is there.
