Winter storms and summer thunderstorms knock out power across Western Pennsylvania, sometimes for days in rural areas. A generator keeps your furnace, well pump, sump pump, and refrigerator running when the grid goes down.
RCC Electric installs automatic standby generators with transfer switches, and portable generator inlets with interlock kits for a lower cost option. We size the system to the loads you care about most and make sure it is connected safely so it never back-feeds the utility lines.
Generators need regular care to start when you need them. We provide maintenance including testing, transfer switch checks, and connection inspections.
