How Much Power Do I Need?

What Size Generator Do I Need?


Today there are many options available to the standby generator customer. A simple search on the Internet reveals a plethora of information and online resellers. Long lists of models present a confusing array of specifications and options. You'll find Generac, Briggs & Stratton, Cummins, Onan, Kohler, Winco and others. It leaves you wondering:


Chances are it all seems a little overwhelming. So while we can't speak specifically about your individual situation here, we can explain some of the general principles.


Automatic standby generator systems are available with a variety of transfer switch types that can be coupled with various sized generators, making certain models suitable for the same task. Because of that, there is no "typical" installation or online chart that will give you the results you are hoping for. Deciding to buy a generator without getting professional advice is taking an unecessary risk. It is very possible you will make a wrong choice, or, while another choice may function, it may not function in the way you had expected. That is why Citywide Electric recommends having your new system designed and installed by a professional in standby generator installations. Someone who is familiar and experienced with all of the various factors involved, as well as electrical systems in general, so as to give you, the customer, enough information to make an informed and ideal decision.


Damage to a home can be extreme when pipes freeze due to loss of heat in the winter while no one is present. A standby generator will protect your home even while you are away because it operates automatically.

How much power you need is an individual choice based on many factors unique to your own situation. Part of the service we offer is an evaluation of your needs combined with an inspection of your electrical system, to provide the ideal standby generator system for you.
