Frequently Asked Questions — Generator Installation
What size generator do I need for my Tolland County home?
Generator sizing depends on your home's square footage, number of circuits you want to back up, and whether you have central A/C, a well pump, or electric heat. TJF Electric provides free sizing consultations — call (860) 268-7972 and we'll walk through the options with you.
What's the difference between a standby generator and a portable generator?
A standby generator is permanently installed outside your home, connects to your natural gas or propane line, and turns on automatically when the power goes out. A portable generator is less expensive but requires manual setup and fuel management. TJF Electric installs both — with proper transfer switches for safe operation either way.
Does generator installation require a permit in Connecticut?
Yes. Connecticut requires permits for standby generator electrical connections and fuel line work. TJF Electric handles all permitting and works directly with local inspectors to ensure your installation is fully compliant and legal.
