Generator Installation for McKinney homes and businesses
We install generator inlets and standby generators across McKinney. In an older home, we look at the panel first, since an interlock needs a panel in good enough shape to accept it.
What we do
- A weatherproof inlet outside and an interlock kit on your panel.
- Running the circuits you pick: fridge, furnace blower, lights, outlets, internet.
- Standby natural gas generators with an automatic transfer switch.
- Coordinating with a licensed plumber for the gas line.
For the full details, see our generator hookup page or our McKinney page.

Questions we get
Do I need a permit for this in McKinney?
Most of this work needs one. Electrical permits here go through the City of McKinney. Older and newer McKinney homes can need different scopes, so we confirm what the permit should cover before work starts.
Inlet and interlock, or a standby generator?
An inlet and interlock is the most affordable way to back up a home with a portable generator. A standby unit starts by itself in seconds and can run the whole house.
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.
