Generator Connections in Phoenix

A generator is only as safe as its connection. We install transfer equipment so your generator can never backfeed the utility line — the failure that injures line workers and burns out equipment.

Overview

What this covers

For portable generators, the right answer is an inlet box plus either a small transfer switch or a panel interlock kit — never a suicide cord into a dryer outlet. For standby units, we wire the automatic transfer switch and set up a critical-load panel so the generator carries what matters instead of stalling on the whole house.

In Phoenix, the loads worth protecting are usually the AC or at least a mini-split, the fridge and freezer, well or pool pumps, and a couple of circuits for lights and networking. We size for that, not for a brochure number.

FAQ

Generator Connections — questions we get

Can I just plug into an outlet?

No. That backfeeds the utility and is genuinely dangerous. A transfer switch or interlock is required.

Do you install the generator itself?

We handle the electrical side and coordinate with your gas/pad installer.

Are you licensed and insured?

Yes. B and D Electric holds Arizona ROC license 361086, carries $1M/$2M general liability insurance, and is bonded through RLI Surety. We'll email you the certificate of insurance on request.

Do you charge for estimates?

No. Estimates are free and given in writing after we've actually looked at the job.

How fast can you get out here?

Same-day for emergencies in most of the Valley, and usually within a couple of days for scheduled work. Call and we'll tell you honestly.
