Portable Generator vs Whole House Generator
Greatest Advantage of a Portable Generator?
Disadvantages of a Portable Generator
- A portable generator requires some manual effort to turn it on and plug it into your house.
- It may not be able to power as much as a whole house generator. For most customers this is perfectly fine. Having a generator that provides utility power for their heat, fridge, window AC, microwave, general lighting/outlet is all many people need.

How Does A Portable Generator Connect To My House?
There are two ways to do it. One is an interlock kit with a transfer switch and the other is a generator panel. They both have some pros and cons. Which one works best for you will depend on your individual situation. Having said that, I’m a fan of the interlock kit in most cases as it’s cheaper and gives the customer more control over what the portable generator powers.

Had to replace old knob and tube wiring so this was a big job. The team that worked at my house were professional and very thorough. And they were very nice guys. Not only did the job go faster than anticipated, but they cleaned up and made minimal holes in the process. Their ‘rough patching’ made our job to completion very easy!
