Generator Installation for Plano homes and businesses
Before adding a generator inlet to an established Plano home, we look at the panel. A full or outdated one can change the plan, and we would rather tell you early than surprise you later.
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 Plano page.

Questions we get
Do I need a permit for this in Plano?
Most of this work needs one. Electrical permits here go through the City of Plano. We check the panel first, so the permit matches the work you actually need.
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.
