Questions we get
Do I need a permit for this in Allen?
Most of this work needs one. Electrical permits here go through the City of Allen. We check the load before we quote, so the permit and the price match the same scope.
Can a portable generator run my AC?
Only a large one, and usually only a smaller AC unit. Most portable setups focus on heat, the fridge, lights and outlets.
Can I just use an extension cord in the dryer outlet?
No. Backfeeding a generator that way is dangerous. An inlet and interlock is the safe way to do it.
